Another of Oneonta's [Otsego Co.

Rev. E. Vine Wales died suddenly in Oneonta [Otsego Co. NY] on Friday June 28th, aged 61 years.  He had, says the Herald, been in unusually poor health for a few days previous, but was about the house the day of his death, which resulted from paralysis of the throat.  He had been a great sufferer from this disease for several years, and death must have come to him as a sweet boon from Heaven.  Living next door neighbor to Mr. Wales for several years in Oneonta, the editor of the Chronicle can bear testimony to his excellency of character, a true Christian and a kind and obliging neighbor.  His last ministerial work as a pastor, was at Noblesville.
