This was the sad news which cast a gloom over our community on Tuesday of last week and the loss of any in our midst could not have caused a deeper sorrow to settle on the minds of all. All felt it to be the death of a friend and while it had for some days been feared, yet Hope held out the fond delusion it "might not be" that in the freshness of his years he would be spared to us "yet a little longer" so when the dread news came it was none the less felt. His life all might emulate - it leaves an influence with us who go on with the future which must tell for good through coming years of time. Faithful to every duty, he lived in a world of friends. He died without an enemy. The sympathy of the whole community is extended to the relatives of the deceased, but all feel as if the question were asked to these stricken parents, "Is it well with thee? Is it well with thy house? Is it well with thy child?" they must answer, "It is well."

Obsequies of Cutler Owen who was drowned at Sodus Point [Wayne Co. NY], August 22d, while in the heroic act of trying to save a young lady from drowning. The funeral of Cutler Owen, formerly of this place [Oneonta, Otsego Co. NY] and late of Rochester [Monroe Co. NY] took place at the Free Baptist Church in this village on Sunday, 25th inst. Although the morning was inclement, the church at an early hour was filled to its utmost capacity. Rev. T.A. Stevens, of this place, assisted by Rev. E.C. Hodge, of Oneonta conducted the services in an eloquent and impressive manner. The remarks to the family and friends were beautifully adapted to the occasion and had a telling effect on all. The services at the cemetery in Mt. Vision [Otsego Co. NY] were solemn and affecting. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Webster of Mt. Vision, followed by remarks by T.A. Stevens. Among the gathered throng were many friends who expressed a desire to view the remains. The wish was granted and as one after another looked for the last time upon that form so calm and cold in death and thought what a noble, heroic struggle it had made for the life of a fellow being, they could but repeat:
"When hearts that are truly proven, like thine are laid in earth, / Then should a wreath be woven, to tell the world their worth."
The last look was taken, the casket was placed in its narrow tomb, and the mortal remains were left alone in the silent grave. Thus Death will claim its own. "Dust thou art and unto dust thou shalt return," was spoken to man. None can escape the mandate of God. The young and the old must surely yield when the reaper Death shall come.
"Leaves have their time to fall, / And flowers to wither at the north wind's breath, / and stars to set-but all, / Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh Death"
