Unadilla [Otsego Co., NY]: An unguarded railroad crossing and a D.&H. freight train that was running on time resulted in the death of one Greene [Chenango Co., NY] woman and sent her companion to Sidney Hospital early last Thursday. Dead is Mrs. Edna Van Talmadge, 35, wife of Calvin Van Talmadge, of Greene, R.D.1.

According to state police at Sidney, Mrs. Van Talmadge's car was half way across the railroad crossing on Depot street here at 12:15 a.m., Thursday when it was struck in the left rear by the southbound freight train. Mrs. Van Talmadge was taken to Sidney Hospital, where she died an hour later, never having regained consciousness. Dr. J.J. Friedman, who attended the victim, said she died of a skull fracture.

Ernest Egbert Clark

The community was greatly shocked, when news came from the Superintendent's office of the New York O&W railroad, Norwich, stating that Ernest Clark, veteran Railroad man for many years, had met death at 10:30 this morning, Monday, Nov. 18. Details are lacking, but it was known he was working on the yard engine in the Weehawken yards, and it is presumed death was instantaneous. The body was removed to the undertaking parlor at Union City, where Harry Rogers, undertaker of Greene, claimed it. It is thought final rites will be held Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Clark was born on June 16, 1896, at Chester, Pa., the son of Susan (Cann) - George Clark. On Sept. 16, 1920, he was untied in marriage to Hazel Foote, of Guilford, at Binghamton. To this union was born a daughter, Genevieve Clark, of Guilford, and a son, Douglas Clark, who is employed by the government and located at Okinawa in the Pacific. His wife preceded him in death only eleven months ago, after a long illness. Other surviving relatives are a sister, Lillian, a teacher in the Teachers State College in Mississippi; two brothers in the West; an aunt, Mrs. Leora Rogers, of Binghamton; two brother's-in-law, Jesse Foote, of Guilford, and Ralph Foote, of Franklin. Ernest E. Clark saw active service in World War I. He was always interested in sports, and a friend to everyone. Most of his years after his marriage were spent in Guilford and Norwich. The body will be laid to rest beside his wife in the family plot at Greene [Chenango Co., NY]. To the bereaved daughter, who cannot even feel the nearest of her brother, our sincerest sympathy goes out to her and to her brother so far away. To loose both parents within a year is a cross hard to bear.

The body was removed to the Clinton E. Wood Memory Chapel, Windsor.
Eliphalet Chamberlin, 91, succumbed last Thursday morning at the home of his son, Edwin R. Chamberlin, Unadilla [Otsego Co., NY]. Mr. Chamberlin was born in Walton [Delaware Co., NY], March 6, 1855, and for the past 12 years had made his home with his son. Up until several months ago, Mr. Chamberlin enjoyed good health and was very active for a man of his years. Funeral services will be held Sunday at the Unadilla Methodist church. The Rev. Clayton Hoag, and the Rev. S.E. Hunt officiated. Interment was in the Trout Creek cemetery [Delaware Co., NY].
