Guilford, Chenango Co. NY: In the death of Mrs. Oleavia Ingersoll, wife of Eathan Ingersoll, which occurred on the 12th ult., in the sixty-seventh year of her age, our community has lost one of its most estimable citizens. For several years the infirmities of increasing age have been gathering upon her, and about four years since she had the misfortune to fall and fracture her hip which added greatly to her burden. Under all these afflictions, however, she bore up with cheerful resignation and continued to attend to her domestic cares until some eight weeks since when she was stricken with partial paralysis and which was followed about nine days since with an apoplectic shock with its fatal attendant result, as above stated. For many years Mrs. Ingersoll, with her husband, has been a resident of our neighborhood, either upon their farm near here or in our village, meantime earning and retaining the universal respect of all who knew her for her combined qualities of intelligence and kindness of heart. She was a Christian in the true sense of the word, and her large circle of relatives and friends will sincerely mourn her death. It has been a great consolation to her during the past few months that her only daughter, Mrs. S.W. Nott, who came from her distant home in Colorado, was with her to receive her counsel, and equally so now to the daughter to have been enabled to administer the last wants to a devoted mother. A husband and an only son, after doing all in their power to sooth the pillow of the dying wife and mother, are left to mourn her great loss.
