On Tuesday of last week Mrs. Emily Williams, of Kingston [Ulster Co., NY], was found dead on the floor of her kitchen at noon. Mrs. Williams had evidently expected that some day she would be suddenly stricken and some time ago had asked Mrs. Elizabeth Doorin, who resides across the street, that if she found the window shades still drawn at 11 o'clock in the morning of any day, promptly to make an investigation. She did so. It is believed that Monday evening after she had lighted the lights she had been suddenly stricken with a heart attack and fallen to the floor dead. She lay on the floor near the kitchen table and had a shawl thrown around her shoulders. She had left written instructions with friends as to the sort of funeral she desired and what clothes she wished to wear. [Bainbridge News & Republican, Mar. 16, 1933]

GALE: At the U. Hospital, New Iberia, La., Sergeant Horace Gale, of Co. B. 114th Reg. N.Y.S.V. aged 27 years, 11 months and 15 days. He was one of the first to respond to his country's call in its hour of peril, when treason and rebellion ran loose throughout the length and breadth of the land. After the first few months of service his health began to decline. But he was one of those ever ready to perform his duty. He was wounded at the ever memorable assault on Port Hudson, but soon rejoined his Regiment and continued to perform the duties assigned him until four days before his death and then it was only by the urgent request of a brother and the kind advice of his physician that he left his duty and reported at the Hospital. No man was more respected, and in his [death] society has lost a member that can never be restored. He leaves a wife and child to mourn his loss. [Chenango Telegraph, Dec. 23, 1863]
The telegraph brought the news, a few days since, which has cast an unwonted shadow of gloom over our little community. Miss Harriet Elizabeth Harvey, daughter of U.T. Harvey, of this village, left home to visit friends in Whitewater Wisconsin, where she had just arrived, when she was attacked with diphtheria. Only one day's notice of her illness preceded that of her death. Mr. and Mrs. H. started immediately on receiving news of her illness, but the sad tidings of her death met them at Buffalo. Mrs. H. returned, but Mr. H. proceeded on his sorrowful journey, and returned with the remains of his loved daughter on Saturday evening last. The funeral services were attended today by a large concourse of deeply sympathizing friends. Seldom have the sympathies of our community been more deeply stirred. The deceased whose age was 26 years, was a model of physical health and vigor, and we find it difficult to associate her with our idea of death, or to realize that she is gone from among us forever. Her uniform cheerfulness and kindly qualities of heart endeared her to all who knew her well, and it will be long before "Libbie Harvey" will be forgotten among us. On the last occasion of the visit of the Bishop of the Diocese to our Parish, she was confirmed as a member of Christ's Church. She took an active interest in the Sunday School of that Church, and her class followed her to the grave as mourners. Her death occurred on Monday, Nov. 23d, at the residence of her cousin, Dr. Littlejohn, of Whitewater Wisconsin.--Sherburne [Chenango Co., NY] [Chenango Telegraph, Dec. 9, 1863]
