Deaths
The following was clipped from a Cape Town paper. Mr. Murray was well known in this valley:
Died at the Carnarvon House, Roeland St., Cape Town, Oct. 29, James Armstrong Murray, Esq., son of James Murray, Esq., Kuilfontein, Colesburg, aged 38years. The following obituary notice, sent to us for publication, refers to the death of one who deserves more than a passing notice:
James Armstrong Murray was born in Colesberg in 1841. He spent most of his early boyhood at the Diocesan College, Rondebosch. At the age of fifteen he went to England to prepare himself, under a tutor, for Oriel College, Oxford, which he entered a few years later; there, honored and beloved by all, developing in mind and first and foremost in all the athletic sports. After a visit to the Cape, on his return to England, he married the daughter of J.C. Althorpe, Esq. of Dinnington Hall, Rotherham, Yorkshire. With his brother-in-law, he became interested in the Esparto business in Alicante., Spain, but on the death of his wife, which occurred within a year, and also that of her brother, he, with the Marquis of Loring, entered into the Espartero affair on a large and more influential scale in connection with large English houses. His influence was unbounded all through Spain, from Barcelona to Malaga, from the peasant of the mountain to the peer at the Cortes. His interest carried him where no Englishman had ever been or Spaniard dared to follow, and in recognition of his services and the amelioration he brought to the people, the highest order of Spain, that of Carlos 3rd of Chevalier, was conferred on him.
His second wife was the daughter of the Hon. G.Y. Gilbert, of Gilbertsville, New York, U.S.A. [Otsego Co.], by whom he had two children. The unsettled state of the country in Spain and its frequent revolutionary uprisings enabled him to take a holiday, which he did in going to America, where he spent two years, again winning all hearts to him, by integrity of purpose and all the graces of true manhood. He left America one year ago, with the strong desire of returning to his old home, always so cherished by association and other ties. After a very painful and sudden illness, he died in Cape Town on Wednesday, the 29th of October, at the early aged of 38.

Died at his residence in the village of Jordon [Onondaga Co. NY], on Thursday evening, Dec. 4, 1879, Dea. Cyrus Lull in the 75th year of his age.
There was sadness in the hearts of our citizens when the announcement came on Tuesday last., that Deacon Cyrus Lull had been prostrated by paralysis and could not recover. Old and young expressed their regrets in looks and words, which truthfully testified to the honorable life and noble example of a beloved Christian citizen. Verily it can be said of Deacon Lull that he lived as he died, a true disciple of Him who taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves. He was honorable and faithful in all the transactions of life; true to himself, to his fellow man and to his God. His character was irreproachable. He practiced what he professed and his professions were founded upon holy principles. He "added to his faith, virtue and to virtue knowledge, and to knowledge temperance, and to temperance patience and to patience godliness and to godliness brotherly kindness and to brotherly kindness charity."
Deacon Lull was born in Morris, Otsego County [NY] in 1805 and with his wife came to Jordan in 1836. Uniting himself with the First Presbyterian church in 1837, he became an active member, devoting both time and money to the advancement of church interests, ably, Faithfully and honorably filling the office of Deacon and Treasurer for many years. He could be relied upon at all times and under all circumstances for a hearty support in all Christian work and measures. His willingness to aid in matters pertaining to the welfare of the church is well known and appreciated.
In the family circle he leaves a wife, son and daughter to cherish the memory of a noble husband, an affectionate father, a pure minded servant of the Most High.
