C.G. Orvis, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of which he was a member; officiating, following which interment was made in Greenlawn cemetery [Bainbridge, NY].

In his early life he worked in the old sled factory, which operated at that time on Johnson street. About 40 years ago he learned the trade of barbering and conducted a shop in partnership with Herman Davenport on West Main street until about 22 years ago, when he took over the business, which he continued until four years ago, when he was forced to retire by illness. A few months later, however, he reopened a shop at his residence, where he worked for his former customers until his death. As a young man he was very much interested in athletics and won many prizes in roller skating and bicycle racing, which were then popular. He is survived by his wife, a sister, Mrs. Cora Wilcox of Milford; a brother, Frank G. Payne of this village, and an aged aunt, Mrs. Francis Bixby of Binghamton. [Norwich Sun, Apr. 13, 1932]
