__________________________

In this town [Cherry Valley, Otsego Co. NY], on the 24th ult. Mr. Cornelius Marks aged 77 years.

Died on the 24th ult. Mr. Cornelius Marks, of this town, aged 77 years.  He was one of the oldest settlers in the town and one of its most respected inhabitants.  His industry, integrity, intelligence and high moral character, commanded universal esteem among his acquaintance and gave him great influence.  He has left behind him numerous and highly respectable descendants.  The large concourse of sorrowing neighbors at his funeral, testified to his worth.  His death was sudden.  He fell from the carriage in which he was riding and bruised his neck and head.  he was taken up insensible but recovered sufficiently to tell his name and residence after which he sunk into a stupor from which he never fully awaked.  As his bruises seemed inadequate to produce insensibility and death, it is supposed that his fall and death were caused by apoplexy of which there were symptoms and of which he previously had a slight attack.  [Cherry Valley Gazette, April 11, 1848]
