Death

PRICE:  In Bainbridge [Chenango Co. NY], August 22, 1878, of consumption, Lillie E. Price, aged 24 years.

When twilight shades had passed, and evening fell, / White wing'd Azrael stood close to our door, / And softly knock'd and whisper'd, "all is well," / And thrice, the beads of Fate he number'd o'er.

The door, we lock'd and guarded, unaware / He passed and stood by our pale suf'rers side, / And with his fingers touch'd her soft blond hair, / And smiled, and whisper'd, "Come, the Angels bide."

The shadow of his wing came o'er the place, / And on our hearts, it cast a deeper gloom; / Two folded hands, a quiet upturned face / And white rob'd angels floated from the room.

Deaths

In Bovina [Delaware Co. NY], on Wednesday last, in the 69th year of his age, Mr. Robert Colgate, a native of Kent, England, but for the last 31 years an inhabitant of this country.

At Waterville [Oneida Co. NY], on the 24th July, Miss Ann Eliza Wainright, daughter of Mr. David C. Wainright, in the nineteenth year of her age. The death of this young lady is truly an afflicting dispensation of Providence.  Her kind and amiable disposition endeared her to her acquaintance by whom she will be universally lamented.  Her loss to the little society which she has left [--unreadable--] associates, the tears of affection will long continue to flow at the mention of her name, and the recollection of her virtues.  The circle of parental affection had become circumscribed by the hand of death till it centered on herself and a son, the only surviving children.  To them the parents looked as the solace of their declining years, and the inheritors of their name and estate.  The anguish of a fond mother at the sudden exit, in the morning of life of her youngest and only surviving daughter is alleviated only by the well-grounded hope that she has exchanged the present for a better world; that she now enjoys that "rest" which a few hours before her death she expressed to be the single object of her desires.
