[Chenango Co., NY]
God has called our little Harry,
While yet his life knew not a stain
But we know he beckons for us,
And will meet in Heaven again.
 
He has crossed the surging river,
With his robes of snowy white,
He has joined that band of angels,
In the land where there's no night.
 
Cheer up and follow Jesus;
He'll lead you to your little one,
And again you'll clasp him to your bosom,
When all earthly trials are done.

John Phetteplace
Norwich Sun, July 1, 1929
John Phetteplace, 81-year-old hostler at Quinn's riding academy, north of this city, is suffering from severe injuries sustained about 8:30 Saturday night when struck by the automobile of Harold Izard of Sherburne, who was driving toward Norwich. The accident happened near Grove Park while Mr. Phetteplace was in the act of crossing the highway. The aged man was brought to the Chenango Memorial Hospital by Leroy Carroll.  Dr. Geo. L. Manley was called.  Mr. Phetteplace sustained a bad cut on the head and an injury to the left shoulder. Deputy Sheriff Charles Juliand, to whom Mr. Izard reported the accident, investigated for the sheriff's department, and learned that Mr. Phetteplace had been to Grove Park on an errand.  He stepped aside to allow one car to pass, but failed to see the second car approaching from the north.  Izard saw the aged man, and turned sharply to the left to avoid hitting him, but the side of the machine struck Phetteplace on the left shoulder and swung him so that his head struck the glass in the door.  Izard stopped his car within 50 feet, showing that he was not driving at excessive speed.  It was stated at the hospital Monday that Mr. Phetteplace seem more comfortable.  Besides an injury to his head he suffered a broken left shoulder and several bruises.
