Mary E. Burgess, Sidney Record, January 29, 1910: The loss of a beloved sister, Miss Mary E. Burgess, brings the deepest sorrow to Miss Elizabeth Burgess, Mrs. Sylvester Arms and the members and friends of the family. Miss Mary Burgess' health had failed for over a year, yet her brightness of heart and cheerful disposition remained the same, with neither murmur nor complaint. A good, loving heart has gone from the family circle and her loss will long be keenly felt. The family located in Sidney [Delaware Co., NY] about eight years ago, coming here from Unadilla [Otsego Co., NY], after the death of Mrs. Emily Burgess. The two sisters were inseparable companions, each bearing the other's burden, and devoted friends share this great sorrow. The services on Thursday afternoon, 27th inst., at St. Paul's church, were largely attended, Rev. Geo. Stockwell, officiating. It is indeed a sad parting for all.

Harvey Young, Chenango Telegraph, Norwich, NY, January 21, 1910: Death in horrible form overtook Harvey Young of Sidney [Delaware Co., NY], in this village [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY] about 10:45 o'clock Tuesday when trying to get out of the way of a Lackawanna engine near the State street crossing, he slipped and fell under the wheels. Mr. Young who lives with his daughter, Mrs. H.D. Newton at Sidney came here to visit her son, Ernest, at 28 Hickox avenue, Monday. Tuesday morning a little after 10:30 o'clock he left the home to go to the Rushmore creamery. It's said that he has been somewhat deaf for a long time. He walked to the Lackawanna tracks and then started south along the rails. Northbound freight train 833, bound from Binghamton to Utica had arrived here at 10:35, stopping below the State street crossing. Both engines and seven freight cars were uncoupled and ran to the Main street crossing where the cars were shunted in on a siding. The engines then proceeded to the water cranes in front of the passenger station where they were uncoupled and took water. After that they started back to the lower yards for their train. Engine 628, in charge of engineman George E. Bryant of Utica backed down first. The whistle was blown for the crossings at Brown avenus and Division street. Young saw or heard this engine, coming and safely cleared the east side of the tracks. Engine 624, in charge of engineman Charles A. Mahar of Utica followed. In attempting to get out of the way of this engine, Young lost his footing and fell in the path of the wheels. The aged man was seen walking down the track by Richard Aldrich, an employee at the creamery. He says that Mr. Young saw the first engine coming and stepped out of the way. He then stepped back onto the track and in the path of the second engine. This he saw just before it was upon him. Apparently in trying to jump out of the way, he slipped. Then the tank hit him and he was lost to sight. As soon as the engine stopped no time was lost in notifying the trainmen. The body was pulled out from under the tank and the engine ran up to the station where the officers were notified. Later it was taken to Lawrence & Curtis morgue where it was prepared for burial. Coroner Earl W. Wilcox was notified and jsut before noon started an inquest at the passenger station.
Sidney Record, January 29, 1910: The last sad rites in Prospect hill cemetery [Sidney, Delaware Co., NY], for the interment of Harvey Young, gathered many friends, who met the remains at the station on the arrival of the train from Norwich. Mr. Young was 70 years of age, always quiet and pleasant in his relations with everyone. His tragic death, without a note of warning gives rise to the deepest sympathy for the entire family.
