Obituaries (June 29)

Emma Elizabeth Juliand
1856-1938
Miss Emma Elizabeth Juliand entered into rest Sunday afternoon at her home on Terrace hill [Bainbridge, Chenango Co., NY] after an illness of several months.  Two years ago, on Thanksgiving Day, she was suddenly taken very ill and her recovery seemed uncertain.  But, owing to her determination and splendid constitution, she regained her strength, and was able to be about the house, supervise her flower garden and enjoy seeing her friends. Three weeks ago, she had the misfortune to fall, the effects of which hastened her death. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Juliand, whose ancestors settled in Bainbridge about 1812.  Four generations of the family have occupied the residence on Terrace hill, West Main street.  When a young woman, Miss Juliand secured a responsible position in the united States Treasury Department. She retained that position and lived in Washington until her retirement in 1926. At that time, she returned to Bainbridge to live with her sisters and niece at the ancestral home. She at once became interested in the social, civic and religious life of the town, being an active member of the Woman's Club, the Ag-wron-doug-was Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, and she represented the Chapter at the Continental Congress in Washington for several years. She was a devoted, life-long member of St. Peter's Episcopal Church.  Miss Juliand was loved by many friends in Washington and Bainbridge, valued for her loyalty, sincerity and kindness. She is survived by her sisters, Mrs. H.W. Dickinson and Miss Janet Juliand, and her niece, Miss Dorothy Dickinson. The funeral services were held on Tuesday afternoon in St. Peter's Church. The Rev. Sidney Heath, rector of the church, officiated at the simple Episcopal service, while the casket rested among a profusion of beautiful flowers attesting the devotion of many friends. The bearers were Charles H. Clark, Dr. Edward Danforth, Herman C. Newell, Hugh Collins, Julian Corbin and Lewis Fairbanks,

James Eldred
Anti-Masonic Telegraph, Norwich, NY, January 26, 1831
On Saturday, the 25th ult. some persons were assembled at a shooting match, in the town of Laurens, in this county [Otsego Co., NY], when a rifle, held by Samuel Bowne, esq. was by accident discharged, the ball taking effect at the distance of four or five feet, on the upper margin of the left hip bone, and entering the body of James Eldred, where it lodged, producing a wound of which he died on the evening of the 26th. The body was examined by the physicians, but they were unable to find the ball, or satisfactorily to ascertain its course.  Mr. Eldred was a respectable farmer of Laurens, and he has left a wife and seven small children, besides other numerous connexions to mourn his loss.--Otsego Tocsin
 
Lucy Ann Wheeler
Anti-Masonic Telegraph, February 16, 1831
In this village [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY], on Saturday evening last, Mrs. Lucy Ann Wheeler, wife of Cyrus Wheeler, aged 31 years.  In the death of this amiable young woman, who bore a long and protracted illness with patient forbearance and Christian fortitude, society has lost one of its brightest ornaments, an affectionate husband a kind and tender wife, and a small family of children the protecting care of a mother whose loss is irreparable.
 
Lory Case
Anti-Masonic Telegraph, February 23, 1831
In Coventry [Chenango Co., NY], on Sunday morning the 13th inst. after a short and painful illness, Mr. Lory Case, aged 45 years.  In the death of Mr. Case, society has been deprived of one of its brightest ornaments--a worthy member of the Presbyterian church in this place, a citizen in whom were concentrated all the virtues that make a man esteemed and beloved.  His memory will long, long remain as a sweet savour in the minds of his acquaintances and relatives.  Coventry, Feb. 15, 1831.
 
Sarah (Bissell) Breed
Anti-Masonic Telegraph, March 2, 1831
In this town [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY], on Friday evening last, Mrs. Sarah Breed, wife of Capt. E.S. Breed, and eldest daughter of Roger Bissell, aged 21 years. Seldom does it fall to the lot of a public journal to record an obituary which is so universally lamented as the one in the present instance.  It needs no record of her virtues upon paper to retain them in the remembrance of all who ever had the pleasure of her acquaintance.
