Death
Chester Brown, whose family resides in Oneida [Madison Co. NY] met with a sad accident on Friday afternoon of last week. He was driving through Florence [Oneida Co. NY] when his horse became frightened and ran away, overturning the buggy, throwing out Mr. Brown and fracturing his left wrist, bruising his face badly, and otherwise severely injuring him. He came home, Saturday evening and has since been under the treatment of Dr. Carpenter and is doing as well as could be expected considering the severity of his injuries. Mr. Brown, for a long time, has been an agent for an Albany firm, and was acting in that capacity at the time of the accident.
Democratic Union, Oneida, NY, May 30, 1872: We spoke in our last week's issue of the accident which befell Chester Brown of Oneida. We are now called to record is untimely and unlooked for death. For the benefit of those who may have failed to notice the issue last week, we will state that Mr. Brown was thrown from a carriage on the 17th inst., while in Florence, severely fracturing his left arm and otherwise injuring him. Had his arm at the time been promptly amputated, undecidedly his life would have been saved as an attack of the lockjaw was the cause of his speedy death. He has not lacked prompt attention on the part of physicians or friends after arriving home. He leaves a wife, a daughter, and little son to mourn his loss and feel the want of the protecting care of a fond parent. His remains were taken on Tuesday last to Cobleskill, N.Y. [Schoharie Co.] for interment, where the funeral services were conducted by the Masonic fraternity, he having been a member of the Camden lodge of F.&A.M. for many years.

News Item
We learn from the Volunteer that George W. Reynolds has turned up again, this time at Fulton, Oswego County [NY]. Reynolds was formerly a resident of this village [Oneida, Oneida Co. NY], and removed from here some fourteen years ago to Morrisville [Madison Co. NY]. He subsequently lived at West Eaton [Madison Co. NY] where he began a career which ended with a two-years' term at Auburn. He was engaged in the shoemaking business at the latter place and by representing to dealers in Utica and other places that he had fallen heir to a large property in Pennsylvania, found no difficulty in getting credit to quite a large sum. But the Pennsylvania story soon began to get too thin, and George left for Canada, leaving his wife and family at West Eaton. During his absence he married a second wife, and lived with her in Oswego until No. 1 secured his arrest on charge of bigamy of which crime he was convicted and sentenced to two years in Auburn prison. His term of service having expired a few weeks since, he came to Fulton, soon formed the acquaintance of and married a house and lot with the incumbrance of a widow aged 76 years, with whom he is spending the honeymoon, "happy as a big sunflower."
