Died: In this village [Oxford, Chenango Co., NY], on the 12th inst., Miss C.E. Gilbert, daughter of Mr. O.S. Gilbert, recently of Guilford [Chenango Co., NY], aged 26 years. Again the wing of the dakr Angel Azrael has overshadowed the happy home circle, and the loved one has followed her brave, and lamented brother to the land of rest. Miss Gilbert was the idolized and petted member of the family, one of those ministering spirits whose whole life is spent in doing good, and her death leaves them desolate, but they sorrow not without hope, for her "to live was Christ, to died is gain."
"Alone unto our Father's will / One thought hath reconciled / That He whose love exceedeth ours / Hath taken home his child.
"Fold her oh Father! in thine arms, / And let her henceforth be / A messenger of love between / Our human hearts and thee."
Died: In this village [Oxford, Chenango Co., NY] on the 8th inst. Jennie E. [Rowley], daughter of Gilbert S. and Sarah A. Rowley, aged 13 mos. and 8 days.
Sweet Jennie's gone; shed not a tear / O'er death's cold billows, damp and drear; / A seraph band hath safely bore / Her spirit to that better shore.
God's ways to us are oft denied; / Yet faith, the golden gates open wide, / It views her standing just within, / Free from every care and sin.
Heave not a sigh; her spirit's fled / Beyond the graveyard's molding dead, / Close nestled by her Savior's side; / She's safe from pain, from sorrow's tide.
Mourn not for her, fond mother, now / A shining crown adorns her brow, / A golden harp, a better song, / She sings amid the angel throng.
She's only just across the tide, / She's only on the other side;/ She only waits for thee to come, / To bid thee welcome, welcome, home.

Died: In Oxford [Chenango Co., NY], Sept. 9, of Asthma Consumption, Mrs. Mary Rice, aged 60 years. In the death of Mrs. Rice, her friends have lost a kind, affectionate mother, sister and friend. While in this world her sufferings, both physical and mental were great, almost beyond endurance. But she suffered all with Christian patience and fortitude. Her illness was long and distressing, but her sorrows are ended, and she has gone to rest in the bosom of her God - in that world where pain and sickness, sin and sorrow never enter, where all tears shall be wiped away. There the wicked cease from troubling and there the weary are at rest. She had a calm and firm reliance on Christ her Savior, saying "I know in whom I have believed and trusted, and he will never forsake me." Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.
