Died: In this village [Oxford, Chenango Co., NY], on the 23d inst. at the residence of his son-in-law, Lewis Juliand, Esq., Mr. Joseph Buttler aged 89 years. The subject of this notice was for nearly sixty years a resident of New Hartford, Oneida Co. [NY], and was one of the pioneer settlers in that section of the State. His memory is familiar to all the early residents of that portion of Oneida Co. where he so long dwelt. For the last ten years he has made his home with the son-in-law, where he departed this life. As long as his faculties of mind continued unimpaired, he was loved and honored for those kind, amiable and gentlemanly qualities of character which mark the mind of genuine refinement. And even through the eclipse which gathered for some time past over his intellect there would be an occasional outgleaming of that spirit of elevated kindness and courtesy by which his character had been stamped. It is a consolation to know that through his long residence in the family in the bosom of which his soul left the fleshly tabernacle, he was watched over and cared for by the tenderest filial solicitude and devotion. The remembrance of what he had been when reason held its throne made it a willing task to those in whose care he was thrown to minister to the comfort and relief of the aged parent, infirm and prostrate more in mind than body. He was saved from the weariness of a protracted confinement to a sick bed. having been characterized by regular and simple habits from early years the shrine of the spirit was free from marked ruin and decay even up to the day previous to death, although the light which once illumined it had burnt low in its socket. He gently passed away from a world to which his vision had grown dim, to access we trust with an enclouded eye, the brightness of that land where the body can never more grow weak or weary, or the soul become darkened or dimmed.

Oxford Times, January 28, 1857
Fires in Guilford: Loss of Life: The house of an old lady by the name of Comstock, living about three-fourths of a mile north of Fayette, was consumed by fire together with its owner, on the night of the 24th. It was not discovered by anyone until the following morning, when all that remained were a few smoking timbers and a charred and blackened mass of what was once a human being. The fire is supposed to have originated from the stove while she was asleep, and in her attempt to escape she was probably suffocated and thus burned to death. She lived alone, having no relatives living, and was supported by the town and through the generosity of individuals. A few shillings of money, probably all she had, were found near her body. The School-house at Fayette, was also burned on the 25th. Owing to scarcity of water, &C. it was impossible to extinguish the flames.
Small Pox at Sherburne [Chenango Co., NY]: We learn from The Sherburne Transcript, that the Board of Health continue to take every suitable precaution against the spread of this disease, and that the citizens, without exception, have shown a commendable regard to the sanitary regulations which have been adopted. From the first appearance of the disease, all the cases except three assumed a very mild form, and most of them are reported convalescent. Of the three severe cases, two are progressing favorably, the third, a son of Gen Rowland, fell a victim to the disease, on Wednesday evening. No new cases of the disease have occurred since tis first outbreak, and we have reason to hope that through the intervention of a kind Providence, its farther progress will be stayed.
