The community was shocked last Thursday afternoon to hear of the sudden death of Lee M. Newell, well-known resident of this village [Bainbridge, Chenango Co., NY] and postal clerk at the Bainbridge Post Office. Apparently enjoying good health, Mr. Newell left the post office at his usual noon hour, and after dining with his parents went to his room before returning to the office. At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon Mrs. Newell discovered him on the floor of the bathroom, where he had succumbed from an attack of cerebral apoplexy. Mr. Newell was born in this village on February 3, 1897, the son of Herman C. and Emma Graves Newell, and his entire life had been spent here. He was educated at the Bainbridge High School, following which for several years he was associated with his father in the retail shoe business which they conducted in the Danforth Block, now occupied by DeGroat's department store. In 1924 he entered the postal service as clerk in the local post office and during his service there has proven himself a capable and efficient employee, dispatching his duties in a manner to win a wide circle of friends. He was very active in the Masonic Fraternity, both in Bainbridge and throughout the Broome-Chenango Masonic district. Raised in Susquehanna Lodge, No. 167, F.&A.M., on February 5, 1919, he immediately took an active interest in the lodge and became its Master during the year of 1926. Lodge work so interested him that he became a member of the Afton Chapter and later a 32nd degree Scottish Rite member of Binghamton. A year ago when the Masters Council was organized in the Broome-Chenango district, he became its first secretary and treasurer, an office which he still held. He was also a member of the Bainbridge Chapter, Order of Eastern Star, and had served as its patron during the year 1926. Last summer he developed a hobby for farming and purchased the small farm of the late Burr Newell, on the East side, where he spent the most of his spare time. Having never married, he continued to make his home with his parents, who now survive. Other members of the immediate family surviving include, an uncle, Charles H. Graves, of Providence, R.I., and a great-aunt Miss Jennie Leadbetter, of this village. The funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon at St. Peter's Episcopal Church, of which he had become a member in early life and to which he had given faithful and active service for many years. Rev. Bradford Tite rector, was the officiating clergyman following which interment was made in St. Peter's cemetery [Bainbridge, NY]. the service at the grave was conducted by Susquehanna Lodge with the R.W.
