Oxford Gazette, February 1, 1826
On Wednesday morning last, in the 20th year of her age, Mrs. Miranda Gear, wife of the Rev. E.G. Gear, Rector of St. John's Church, in this village [Ithaca, Tompkins Co, NY]. The destroying angel has executed a commission which has called the tender mother, the affectionate wife and the sincere friend, in the bloom of life, and in the midst of usefulness, to walk through the dark valley and shadow of death, without fear of its terrors; for its paths were illuminated by the countenance of the Saviour. During a very severe illness, patience and resignation rose superior to the pains of the body and when the spirit obtained its release and winged its way to the mansion of eternal rest, then was it that her friends were left in doubt whether most to mourn her loss, or rejoice at her happy exchange of time for eternity.

Died: At Utica [Oneida Co., NY], Nov. 5th, Mrs. Nancy Bolles, wife of the late Mr. Elias Bolles, aged 67 years. Those who many years lived with Mrs. Bolles in the kindly intimacy of friends and neighbors, know very well the loss her family have been called to mourn in this last bereavement. As a wife, she was the "virtuous woman whose price is above rubies;" as a mother realized the poet's words: "There is in this world no fount of strong and deathless feeling, save in a Mother's love." No sacrifice of ease or comfort was too great for her to make, for her family, or other's good. The friend at the fireside or the beggar at the gate were cheered and comforted by words and deeds springing from a warm and loving heart. She has been many times a sad sufferer from physical maladies, but the last few months were darker than all others to herself and children, from mental tortures which neither affliction or medical skill could dissipate or relieve. Poor wearied nature at length sank under the fearful ordeal, and she has gone to the land where there is no sickness, or wasting sorrow, leaving to those who loved her, this memorial for imitation. "She hath done what she could, / for us in the gloom of this autumn sky, / She lives where the endless summits lie, / Above the clouds of this dismal night. / Where the stars shine on in their homes of light."
