The Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State Friday Evening, September 14-1888 Price One Cent. Fire in the Country This Noon. Shortly before noon to-day a small tenement house on the farm of J.J. GALLUP, about four miles out of town on the Alexander road, burned to the ground with nearly all its contents. It was occupied by a German named 'Gus HOLMAN, his wife and two little children. HOLMAN and his wife went out to work this morning and locked the two children in the house. The fire was discovered by men working near, and they immediately thought of the children and rushed to the house and forced an entrance. They found the little ones sitting under a table. The flames were rapidly approaching them. The origin of the fire is a mystery, as HOLMAN says there were no matches or fire in the house when he and his wife left in the morning. + Presentation at South Alabama. Wilbur C. POND and family leave to-night for Climax, Kalamazoo county, Michigan, where they expect to live hereafter. At the Baptist church Wednesday evening they were given a farewell visit and were presented with a handsome water pitcher by their friends. The presentation speech was made by James GORTON, who regretted the departure of Mr. POND and hoped for the success of himself and family in their new home. Mr. POND briefly responded. He has for several years been organist of the church.--Elder HART, a former pastor here, has been visiting old friends in this community. + Is Mrs. PICKETT Insane? An examination into the mental condition of Mrs. PICKETT of this village is to be made with the idea of having her incarcerated in the Buffalo Insane Asylum if it is found that she has lost her reason. Mrs. PICKETT is the woman to whom reference was made in The News of September 4th, as having been found at night in the cellar of F.H. SAUNDER's house on Harvester avenue. The inquiry as to her condition was to have taken place before Judge PECK to-day, but the doctors were not ready to make their report, and it was postponed until next Thursday. + Last Day at the Attica Fair. The attendance was small all day at the Attica Fair yesterday, and the exhibition was not more of a success financially than it was otherwise. There were not enough horses entered to start in several of the races and those who participated were obliged to make "blind" entrances in order that the races might come off. The last heats of running race and the road-wagon race, which were postponed from the day before, were won by Dr. LEFLER's running horse "Johnnie B" and his pacing stallion "Willink." The free-for-all race awakened considerable interest and C.J. HAMLIN's "Globe" was the favorite with the betting men. The race was won, however by "Sarah B," a mare owned by Rochester parties. "Globe" secured third money. In the three minute race a horse owned by William SIMPSON of Rochester was the winner. There were only two entries in the pacing race--Dr. LEFLER's "Willink," and "Jumbo," a big horse owned by FISHER & BENNETT of Corfu. "Jumbo" won the race. One reason why the Attica Fair was not a success, observers say, was because no beer was sold on the ground. + An Oakfield Man's Rib Cracked. Two Oakfield men named LANSEAR and DUNN came to Batavia yesterday driving an old horse which was nearly dead, and it is said, misused it terribly. In the afternoon they were circling around and going through various maneuvers on West Main street in front of Dr. SUTTERBY's infirmary when, in turning short, one of the wheels of their vehicle was taken off and they were both spilled on the ground. Both were considerably bruised, and one of DUNN's ribs was cracked. + Indian Lands and Annuities. Assemblyman WHIPPLE's Legislative Committee investigating the condition of the New York State Indians is now in session in Buffalo, Daniel SHERMAN of Forestville, Indian Agent for New York from 1869 to 1881, was an interesting witness. Having reference to the lands and annuities of the Indians he said, as reported in the Buffalo 'Express': "The Indians sold all lands in Western New York except eleven reservations viz.: Cattaraugus, Allegany, Buffalo Creek, Tonawanda, Oil Spring, Conewango, Big Tree, Little Beard, Squakle Hill, Gordeau and Kaownadeau---the last six on the Genesee river, containing 337 square miles. The Senecas receive annuities amounting to 5 per cent, on $100,000 held in trust by the Treasurer of the United States. Oil Spring was not included in the treaty as made or published. It was agreed it should be. The Holland Land Company purchased this large tract of land under this treaty. A survey and map was made in 1801, which recognized the Indian title to Oil Spring Reservation. CHAMBERLAIN and others took title to those lands and Oil Spring came through the Holland Land Company. They divided Oil Spring into four equal parts, and sold part to Gov. SEYMOUR; the part containing Oil Spring to PATERSON. The latter cleared a farm, put up a house and barn, about the year 1856. Soon after my appointment I brought an action against PATERSON. It was tried before a jury with a verdict for the Indians. It went to the General Term and Court of Appeals and the judgment was affirmed. The Indians now hold it. I found a map of the Holland Company's purchase in possession of Black Snake at Coldspring on the Allegany Reservation. Black Snake was then 113 years old. I took his evidence before Judge LAMB. The map was found in a small trunk covered with deerskin under Black Snake's bed. The trunk is preserved as a relic. "There were sold to the Ogden Land Company the six reservations on Genesee River, also 33,400 acres of Tonawanda Reservation, 33,637 acres Buffalo Creek Reservation, one square mile in the town of Handover, Chautauqua county, and a mile strip on Cattaraugus Reservation in Erie county; in all, 87,526 acres for the sum of $48,216, or about 55 cents an acre. "The Senecas receive in all about $11,902 yearly from all their annuities, besides their annuity goods. The Senecas of the Tonawanda band receive in addition an annuity of 5 per cent on $859.50, amounting to about $43. 50. This is under their treaty of November 5,1857, with the United States and Ogden Land Company. By that treaty the Tonawanda Senecas extinguished the claim of the Ogden Land Company to the remaining portion or their lands on that reservation. They own them in fee, held in trust by the Comptroller of New York State. There are State annuities growing out of sale of lands in the Eastern part of the State, to the State. The State pays the St. Regis, Oneida, Cayugas and Onondagas. Last year it amounted to $2,430 and 150 bushels of salt. The Oneidas own their lands in fee." + Button's Raven Gloss Shoe Dressing.

Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State January 11-1892 A Long Death Record. The Rev. Timothy H. QUIGLEY, a retired Presbyterian minister, died at his home on Prospect avenue at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon in the 74th year of his age. On New Year's Day he preached the sermon at the funeral of John C. SCHWAB at Stafford, the interment being at East Bethany, and it is thought that the exposure at that time laid the foundation for the maladies that caused his death. He was confined to his bed only about three days, however, and died very suddenly. Heart disease, and the grip are ascribed as the causes of death. He leaves a widow and one son, Prof. L.J. QUIGLEY, who is in Kentucky and who was formerly Professor of Music at the State Institution for the Blind. The deceased was born in Northampton, Mass., and had lived in Western New York for a great many years, being in charge of different churches. His last regular charge was at Bethany, which he gave up about ten years ago and practically retired from active service in the pulpit, although he had frequently officiated since then, to fill vacancies. He moved to Batavia eight years ago. He was highly respected by his parishioners and friends, who will regret to learn of his death. The time for the funeral has not been fixed. + Albert H. KING. Albert H. KING, for many ears a well-known resident of Batavia, died at the home of his family, in Chili, on Saturday, aged 68 years. Mr. KING was born in Monroe county and was reared on a farm. He was for a long time engaged in handling grain and wool in that county and during the late war was an extensive dealer in oats, which he furnished to the Government. In 1876 Mr. KING and his son, Hiram A., bought the Fish malt house on Elm street in Batavia. Owing to reverses the business passed out of their hands in 1886, but Mr. KING remained in Batavia until the middle of May last, when he went to Tonawanda as a salesman of cement sidewalks. Several days ago he suffered an attack of pneumonia, following the grip. On Friday morning an attempt was made to remove him to Chili, where his family has always lived, but his condition was such that the plan was not carried out until Friday afternoon. He survived less than twenty-four hours after reaching Chili. Mr. KING was an earnest Republican. He represented Chili on the Board of Supervisors of Monroe county and was that county's representative on the Republican State Committee for a term of two. For five years he was a division superintendent and weighmaster on the Erie canal. The funeral will be held from the house in Chili to-morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock. + Mr. and Mrs. Michael DAUBER.

Up to about three weeks ago both were well. Mr. DAUBER was 88 years old and Mrs. DAUBER 80, and when they were stricken with the grip Mrs. DAUBER died at 6 and her husband at 10 on Thursday morning. Out of a large family of children, only two boys survive. The Rev. Mr. HUBER officiated at the double funeral. + Mrs. Elizabeth PECK. Mrs. Elizabeth PECK, widow of Ashel PECK and one of the earliest settlers in Batavia, being almost a lifelong resident of this town, died yesterday at the County House in Bethany, whither she was taken on Tuesday, December 29th.

Dansville Advertiser Dansville, Livingston Co., NY January 17, 1884 CUSTER - VANDERLIP The Wedding at St. Peter's - Last Night - Reception at Judge VanDerlip's - Off for New York This Morning Capt. B.M. CUSTER, U.S.A., and Miss Fanny MACK, daughter of Judge VANDERLIP, were married at St. Peter's church at half-past seven o'clock last evening, and a reception at the residence of Judge VanDerlip followed. The marriage ceremony, of the Episcopal church, as beautiful as it is impressive, was performed by Rev. A.P. BRUSH of Bath, the former pastor of the church. The scene at St. Peter's was a brilliant one. The handsome little church was well lighted, many candles at the altar shedding their peculiar radiance upon the bright group of bride and groom, bridesmaids and groomsmen. The invited guests began to arrive at the church before seven o'clock. Messrs. John R. VANDERLIP, B.H. OBERDORF, Clarence I. McNAIR and John N. FAULKNER acted as ushers. Many rich and beautiful costumes were noted, as well as many bright and joyous faces. At about the appointed time, the soft preludes of the organ were changed for the familiar notes of the wedding march, and the bridal party, preceded by the ushers, marched up the sough aisle to the delicious strains. First the bridesmaids, Misses May VAN DERLIP and Hattie McCURDY, Misses Daisy VAN DERLIP and Lillie ENDRESS, then came the bride leaning upon the arm of her father. Up the north aisle came Capt. CUSTER attended by his best man, Lieut. KIRBY, 10th Inf., U.S.A., of Buffalo. The two parties met at the altar. The congregation rose and remained standing during the entire ceremony. The responses were made in clear, firm tones. Judge VanDerlip gave away the bride. At the conclusion of the ceremony, the congregation was seated until the bridal party passed out. Then there was a hum of voices, bright eyes spoke to bright eyes again, the gay company followed, and the church was soon deserted and dark. But the light which went out at the church was renewed in greater brilliancy at the home of the bride, where Judge and Mrs. VanDerlip received at large number of guests. Here the elegant costumes and the bright faces of the ladies, and the presence of many gallant men, contributed to a scene of beauty and animation which must always remain a delightful memory to the bride who was so soon to leave it. Judge and Mrs. VanDerlip received in the front parlor, the bride and groom and bridesmaids in the back parlor, and in the next room were displayed the wedding presents which were many and elegant. Refreshments were served all the evening. Among the guests from out of town were the following: Capt. And Mrs. E.H. PRATT and daughters, Rochester; Gen. Campbell H. YOUNG, Miss NORTH, W. S. OBERDORF, Geneseo; Mr. and Mrs. RICHARDSON and daughter, Hornellsville; Mr. and Mrs. Perry MILLS, Mr. and Mrs. H.E. BROWN, Mt. Morris; Rev. and Mrs. A.P. BRUSH and daughter, Bath; the Misses McNAIR, Sonyea. We give a brief notice of the costumes of the prominent actors in this scene as absolutely indispensable. The bride's dress was of white satin surah and white brocaded satin with court train, the trimming seed pearl passamenterie, tulle veil, orange blossoms. The bridesmaids wore white mull, trimmed with oriental lace, tulle veils, and each bore a beautiful bouquet. The groom was dressed in the full uniform of his rank. Capt. and Mrs. Custer left Dansville for New York this morning. They will go from thence to Washington and other places south, returning here to spend the first five days of February. The Captain's leave of absence expires Feb. 13th, before which time they will reach the Indian Territory where his regiment is stationed. Many good wishes will go with them, and it is sincerely hoped that the beauty of the day and the night which witnessed their espousal may be the promise of the brightness of their married life. * * * * * Dr. James H.

LEWIS of this city, brief reference to which was made in the columns of the Union yesterday, deserves more than passing notice. She was the daughter of Luman ? and Ann M. NICHOLS, her father a well known and prominent business man in the city of Lockport, who died many years ago. She was born in that city, educated in one of the best educational institutions of the state, grew to womanhood in her native place and was the joy, pride and delight of her parents, and the center of a circle of devoted and admiring friends. She married Mr. LEWIS in 1872 and shortly afterward removed to Rochester, where she has since resided, loved and esteemed by all who know her. Mrs. LEWIS was possessed of a bright, sunny, cheerful disposition, full of life and a-i--tion, charming and attractive in manner and generous sympathetic and kindly in heart and disposition. Her married life was cloudless. Her husband worshipped her. Their thoughts, feelings, hopes and lives blended as in one, and this bereavement to Mr. LEWIS is beyond the power of words to describe. From girlhood she had a strong attachment to the Episcopal Church, and in maturer years she accepted with unchanging faith and trust its doctrines. She has been in failing health for some months but retained her wonted buoyancy of disposition and manner, and her friends could not bring to their belief the thought she would not recover. Her death has almost prostrated her husband, mother, brother and sister, who survive. She leaves in this life and in Lockport an unusually large circle of friends and acquaintances, who will with loving, cordial feeling cherish her memory. Brief services will be held at the house, 61 East avenue, to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock. The remains will be taken to Lockport and further services held there at 2 o'clock in the afternoon at the residence of her brother, Mark H. NICHOLS. The interment will be at Glenwood cemetery. * ITEMS IN BRIEF -The dredge Erie is now at Charlotte harbor hard at work about half way between the life-saving station and the ends of the piers. -Nathan LEVI, while driving at the Driving Park yesterday, was thrown from his wagon and severely injured about the back and head.

Mr. Holly:--Sir, I shall be under the necessity of discontinuing your paper unless we can get a mail from Warsaw to this place. For almost a third of the time this winter we have not got it till the next week. I have felt rather unpleasant about it, but concluded to hold still, hoping for better times. But alas! forbearance ceases to be a virtue; and I cannot stand it any longer. Tuesday the old black mare went up to Orangeville Centre and turned back--today as far as this place and turned about. Please inform us what can be done under the circumstances. Yours in haste, Pierce MORSE. * We have heard more complaint of the failure of the mails on that line than any other. If we understand it, the contract is to carry the mails through there three times a week. We would advise those in Johnsonburgh and other places, who are discommoded, and who know the facts, to make a statement, under oath perhaps, and send it to the Postmaster General. We imagine this will remedy the matter. + -to be cont'd.- submitted by Linda C. Schmidt & Kathy Then
