McGRAW: The body of Martin McGraw, a young man residing with his parents at Chittenango Station [Madison Co. NY] was found lying alongside of the railroad track in Syracuse [Onondaga Co. NY], about 3 o'clock on the morning of Wednesday of last week. From appearances the cars must have run over him as from the right hip to the knee was terribly mangled. The deceased was nineteen years of age and was in the employ of the railroad company as a track hand. It is supposed that he attempted to get on board the midnight train going east for the purpose of returning home and in doing so must have made a misstep and went under the wheels. His remains were brought to his home on Thursday and from thence borne to Cazenovia [Madison Co. NY] for interment, followed by a large circle of mourning friends. Times

SEELY: In Oneida [Madison Co. NY] Aug. 17, Ella [Seely] only child of John and Mary Seely, aged 10 years and 21 days.
Fond mother you have parted / With one you loved so dear, / The songs you oft have listened to, / You never more may hear.
Her playthings all are laid aside; / Vacant her little chair, / You turn towards the tiny bed / Alas, she is not there.
You'll miss her when the summer is gone, / With buds and blossoms bright, / Miss her when the twilight deepens / into dark and gloomy night.
You gaze around your lonely house, / Unbidden falls the tear, / Naught can cheer the drooping spirits, / For "Ella is not here."
When you gather round the fireside / Of your once happy home, / All around you breathes of sadness, / You feel you are alone.
But oft at midnight's darkest hour, / An angel form is near, / She gently soothes your throbbing brow / And whispers words of cheer.
Then mourn not for her, mother, / she is an angel now, / And flowers bright and beautiful / Bedeck her fair young brow.
May you meet your darling Ella / In that bright world above, / Where good-by tones no more are heard, / And all is peace and love.
