BARTLE: In Oxford [Chenango Co. NY], on the 7th, Mr. John W. Bartle, aged 67 years. The deceased, the son of David Bartle, was born on the 28th day of January 1804 on the farm in Oxford, where he died, and where he had continued to reside until his death. By frugality, industry, temperance, and honest toil, he had acquired a competence. During a life marked by great integrity, uprightness in his dealings with others and honest in his worldly affairs, he had the unbounded confidence of all who knew him, and by his death the community are called to mourn the loss of an honest man, a kind neighbor, and a good citizen.
JACOBS: In Oxford [Chenango Co. NY], at the residence of his brother, Daniel B Jacobs, Mr. Israel Jacobs, aged 40 years.
A runaway occurred in this village [Oxford, Chenango Co. NY], on Friday afternoon last, which resulted in the death of Richard W. Osgood. a gentleman well known throughout the County, and who resided a few miles from this village, in the town of Preston [Chenango Co. NY]. The particulars are as follows: Richard and his younger brother Ray, had come to the village early in the day, and had been engaged in settling accounts between themselves - Richard owing Ray some money on the estate that was left the heirs by their father. In the settlement Ray took a horse from Richard - one of the span that was driven on that day. After the settlement the two brothers and Lyman VanTassel got into the wagon near the Post Office and drove over the river and around Washington Square at a rapid gait, for the purpose, as is understood, of showing up the team, and especially the horse purchased by Ray.
On returning, VanTassel was driving, and while coming up Fort Hill, the bits broke in one of the horses' mouth, and the team started into a run. They came down the hill and across the river bridge at a fearful rate of speed, and all three of the men hold of the reins trying to stop them. Their unified efforts succeeded as they left the bridge in pulling or partly turning the team to the right, and they ran up along side of the awning posts on the Island. As they passed over a large stone in front of the Pettis House, Richard was thrown headfirst onto the stones, his feet remaining caught in the wagon, in this condition he was dragged in front of the Bank, where he was left. The team made a complete circle and Ray and VanTassel jumped out and caught them by the heads.
A number of our citizens immediately ran to Richard's assistance, but he was found to be dead. The blow had caused death instantly, and he presented a ghastly and fearful sight. A medical examination revealed the fact that his neck was broken, and his skull fractured in two places, either fracture being sufficient to cause death. The deceased leaves a little daughter, not quite two years old, his wife having died at the time of its birth, also several brothers and sisters. His age was thirty-four years.

Deaths
In this place [Sherburne, Chenango Co. NY], on Friday, 17th inst., Wm. E. Irons, son of Orlando Irons, aged about 25 years.
With sincere sorrow we record the death of a most estimable lady, Mrs. C.L. Easton, who, after a lingering and painful illness, went to her rest on Tuesday afternoon this week. Her age was 57 years. The deceased has been a resident of Sherburne for eighteen years, and during all that time, we venture to affirm that not an ill word has ever been spoken of her. She was a true woman in the full meaning of the term, a faithful friend, a devoted wife and mother, and a consistent Christian. She will be missed from a large social circle, from the Church of which she was an ornament; but above all from the home where she was reverenced for her excellent qualities of head and heart. The flowers with which affectionate hands profusely decked her remains, were emblematic of the loveliness and purity of her life. Though this dispensation has been long anticipated, it is none the less afflictive. The sufferings of the departed though at times intense, were borne with Christian fortitude and patience, and the immediate friends who have the warmest sympathies of our whole community, may console themselves with the reflection that after a pure and blameless life, her final passage was peaceful and resigned.
