Bosworth, wife of Josiah Bosworth, of Pharsalia, Chenango Co., aged 51 years and 9 months.  The subject of this notice was one of earth's precious gems.  From her youth she always felt it her duty and privilege to administer to the wants of the poor, the outcast, the sick and afflicted, of earth's children.  It was her meat and drink to do the will of her Heavenly Father.  Her faith in God as the Father and Savior of all men, made her a practical Christian. She loved the sanctuary.  She loved the church of Christ, and its ordinances.  She delighted in signing the praises of God, and to pour out her soul in prayer to the Father of Spirits. She was a good companion, a tender and affectionate mother, a devoted sister and dutiful child.  She had a smile and a word of cheer for the sick, and the dying, and the mourner. During her protracted illness, not a murmur escaped her lips.  Perfectly resigned to the will of God, she made all necessary arrangements for her departure, and having expressed an earnest desire for the writer of this notice to attend her funeral, she folded her arms upon her breast, and fell asleep in Christ, the hope of her soul.  Her remains were brought to her home in Pharsalia, and on the Sunday following her funeral was held in the Presbyterian Church, where a large congregation of sympathizing friends and neighbors listened to a discourse in defence of that faith and hope she loved so well in life, and which gave her such joy and peace in the hour of death. She has left a husband and seven children, and a large circle of relations and friends, to mourn her departure.  What is our loss is her immortal gain.  A.G Clark

Probably Fatal Accident:  Mr. Harvey Sherman, a stone mason, of this village [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY], on Saturday of week before last, while working on D. Maydole's new engine building, had his foot badly crushed by the falling upon it of a stone weighing several tons. We regret to add that the accident is likely to prove fatal, mortification having taken place, and he being in no condition to have the foot amputated.

Mr. Frederick Hollister, formerly of Utica [Oneida Co., NY], and at that time one of the most extensive and widely-known business men of the central part of the State, died in the city of New York on the 16th inst.  The "Mammoth Store," of this village, was founded by him, and was one of the numerous branches of his Utica establishment.  He was unfortunate in his business affairs, and died in comparative obscurity.

"Weep not for her!  There is no cause for woe; / But rather nerve thy spirit, that it walk / Unshrinking o'er the thorny paths below, / And from earth's low defilements keep thee back; / So, when a few fleet severing years have flown, / She'll meet thee at heaven's gate - and lead thee on! / Weep not for her!"
