Death

In this village [Norwich, Chenango Co., NY], on Saturday evening last, Mrs. Lucy Ann Wheeler, wife of Cyrus Wheeler, aged 31 years.  In the death of this amiable young woman, who bore a long and protracted illness with patient forbearance and Christian fortitude, society has lost one of its brightest ornaments, an affectionate husband a kind and tender wife, and a small family of children the protecting care of a mother whose loss is irreparable.

We have the painful task to perform of recording the death, by fire, of Mrs. George Harper, of Windsor [Broome Co., NY].  The particulars of this melancholy event as far as we can learn, are as follows.  On Thursday last Judge Harper went to Owego, leaving Mrs. Harper, two hired men and a maid servant at home. Between four and five o'clock next morning, Mrs. Harper discovered the house to be on fire, and ran out and gave the alarm to the other members of the family, she then returned into the house in order, as is supposed, to secure Mr. Harper's papers; but on attempting to leave the  house a second time she found her retreat cut off by the flames, which spread with frightful rapidity. The shrieks of Mrs. Harper soon informed the other inmates of the dwelling of her perilous situation; they immediately rushed to the spot, but were unable to afford her any assistance.  Her body was afterwards found, burned entirely to a cinder. We believe there was not a single article of any description rescued from the devouring flames.  Broome Republican

It may be interesting to some of our readers to know, that a half blood Indian, called Jakc, of some notoriety in our Revolutionary war, died at Harsimus, New Jersey, on the 2d inst. at the advanced age of 102 years.  He was the last of a tribe who inhabited the Jersey shore when the Dutch took possession under the grant from the Colonial Governor Stuyvesant. The deceased had been brought up in the family of Mr. Van Voorst; he acted as a spy for the British army during the Revolution and did them great service as a guide in various parts of New Jersey.  He was enabled by the wealth acquired form this service, to decoy at various times colored persons from the neighboring farms on board the British West Indiamen, where he sold them as slaves. During the last 60 years he was much addicted to intemperance.  He has left no family.  N.Y. Eng.

On the evening of Sunday, the 25th ult. John J. Ten Eick was found dead in a field near his house, in Davenport in this county [Delaware Co., NY].  Circumstances leave no doubt but the deceased came to his death by lightning.  The facts, as we have heard them, are briefly these:  Late in the afternoon of that day, Mr. Ten Eick took his bridle in his hand and went into the field for the purpose of bringing a horse from the pasture.  A heavy shower occurred during his absence, and he not returning, his friends went in pursuit and found him as above stated, lying on his face, under a tree evidently shattered by lightning a few minutes before. The electric fluid had passed down the tree through the hat of Mr. T. leaving a small hole in the corner of the hat, and down his body to the ground, tearing the sole of one of his shoes in its passage.  No external mark of violence was discoverable on his body. Mr. Ten Eick had been at different times supervisor of the town in which he resided and was highly respected and esteemed by his acquaintance.  His sudden death is a source of sincere regret to his fellow citizens.  Delaware Gazette
