Eva A. (Smith) Tillapaugh
Norwich [Chenango Co., NY]: Many friends in Norwich and vicinity were shocked to learn of the recent and unexpected death of Mrs. Eva A. Tillapaugh, at the home of her son, Ernest Tillapaugh, at South New Berlin [Chenango Co., NY]. On the day before Christmas the remains were laid at rest in the Holmesville Cemetery, near the grave of her father, who died November 29, 1864. Rev Mr. Hill, of South New Berlin, officiated at the funeral in the Holmesville Church, assisted by Rev. C.H. Meyer, of Holmesville. Mrs. Tillapaugh was the oldest child of Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher D. Smith, and was born July 4, 1853. She married Nelson Tillapaugh December 20, 1870, and had lived in or near Norwich all of her life except seven years in Binghamton and one year in Illinois. She was of a happy disposition and was always willing and eager to do what she could to alleviate the suffering of those about her. For the past few years her work had been the care of the sick and her services as a nurse were much sought after. She leaves to mourn her death three sons, Warren and Clarence Tillapaugh, of Cherry Valley, and Ernest Tillapaugh, of South New Berlin. There also survive her mother, Mrs. R.S. Whitman, of Holmesville; three sisters, Mrs. Frank J. Barre and Hattie Whitman, of Holmesville, and Mrs. Libbie H. Stratton of Norwich, and two brothers, Mason J. Smith of Loraine, O., and George R. Smith, of Girard, Mich.
BRADSTREET: In Bennettsville, Oct. 11th, 1878, Mrs. Jennie A. Bradstreet, aged 27 years.
In recording the death of our beloved friend Mrs. Jennie A. Bradstreet, we desire to express our sympathy with the bereaved husband, two small children and numerous other relatives; and bid a sorrowing farewell to one who was kindly and affectionate in her nature, honored and beloved by all who knew her. She possessed many admirable and upright traits of character, which we venerate and the influence will remain with us as a legacy as long as life endures. She was a great sufferer for a number of months, but her courage kept up till the last, and would often remark it was all that kept her alive. But as time passed away she was ready and willing to go, and longed for the time to come when she would be at rest. She talked with each member of the family about her departure and made every preparation for the coming event, and selected a favorite hymn (sweet rest in Heaven) to be sung for the occasion. When worn out by disease, death kindly came to her relief, and taking her from the empire of the living to the silent realm wherein she will sleep the quiet unbroken sleep of death. No vicissitude of earth, no event of time will ever disturb her rest; she belongs now to that vast realm whose monarch permits no sound, not even a whisper or a sigh to disturb the dead's repose. Suns will rise and set, generations will come and go, bringing hopes and fears, joy and sorrow, suffering and death to all who live and the millions yet to be, for these are the common lot and heritage of man. Farewell dear friend till we meet again in a better land. Careful hands and loving hearts will deck thy grave and keep thy monument whole and thy memory green. --A friend.
