Another Veteran Gone: We are called upon to record the death of the venerable Daniel K. Wescott, which occurred at the residence of his son-in-law, Henry L.

Mr. Westcott was, we believe, born and reared on the farm of his father, the late Amos Wescott, in the east part of this town, and has resided near the place of his birth during his long and peaceful life. Quiet and unassuming in his manner, upright in all his dealings with his fellow man, he goes to his rest respected by his many old neighbors and friends and mourned by a large family circle, of which he has so long been the head. His age was seventy-eight years.

SAGE: In South New Berlin [Chenango Co. NY], September 5th, 1875, Mr. Jewett Sage, in the 84th year of his age.
The deceased was possessed of great physical strength, with a most active, energetic enthusiastic mind, causing himself to be felt in all the departments of commercial enterprise, being known by all as the indomitable worker in his department of political economy. He was a man of positive ideas, making his mark in improvements, and erecting monuments to his memory in all of this section of the country where he has lived for more than sixty years, extensively known and respected far and wide. But most, and better than all he was known as a Christian man. His life was a legacy to the churches and especially to the church of which he was a member at his death. For the seventeen years with which he was connected with the Presbyterian Church in New Berlin [Chenango Co. NY], his Christian integrity, his kind and amiable spirit, his careful and sound judgment, his settled principles of action, in all that he did his uniform everyday life, made him a safe and valuable counsellor and an ornament to the church and his death a loss to the church and the community. As a Christian man he was known to be the firm, benevolent friend and supporter of the ministry and the public worship of God and his Redeemer. Distance to him in his younger days was of no account, and business was secondary to his religion. The church of his choice must be cared for in all departments, cost what it would. His religious sentiments were of the Pauline type. None were ever more attached to the doctrines of the so-called Calvinistic faith, and the policy of a Republican Church. In essentials unswerving, in non-essentials Christian and tolerant. His death was peaceful and triumphant. The last words that he said to his pastor were characteristic: "I am in the hands of God."
"The chamber where the good man meets his fate / Is privileged beyond the common walks / Of virtuous life, quite in the verge of heaven."
Devout men carried him to his burial with great lamentations over him, surrounded with his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, three generations who had kindly and lovingly watched him in his last sickness and now laid him away to rest in the beautiful cemetery of his own preparation.
