Deaths

In Oxford [Chenango Co., NY], Dec. 17, 1865, Mrs. Lucia Symonds, wife of Dr. John Symonds, aged 78 years.  The deceased was one of that generation, now fast passing away, who laid the foundations of society in this town.  In her life and character, she presented a striking illustration of the spirit and power of the Gospel.  In the various relations of life, she discharged the duties that devolved upon her with scrupulous fidelity.  The poor found in her a friend ready to minister to their wants; the afflicted, one who would sympathize with them in their sorrow.  In May, 1813, she made a profession of faith in the Saviour and united with the Congregational Chruch in this village.  In her Christian character, she exemplified in an unusual degree the meekness and gentleness of Christ.  For the last few years of her life she was an invalid.  But her privations and sufferings were borne with Christian patience and resignation.  Her friends, who mourn her loss, have the comforting assurance that she has entered into that rest which is in reserve for the people of God.

In Hocking Co., Ohio, on the 17th Sept. 1865, Mr. John Root, aged 71 years.  He was senior brother of the family of Joshua and Mehetable Root, formerly of Greene, Chenango Co., N.Y.  At an early age he sought a home in Ohio, where he was married to Miss Magdelana Rilligeer, and now leaves a large family to mourn his loss.
