Troy Daily Times Troy, Rensselaer County, NY July 10, 1860 MARRIED At West Stephenstown, on the 3d inst., by the Rev. I. B. COLEMAN, Mr. James H. CUMMINGS to Miss Emily L. KNAPP, both of Nassau. LETTER TO EDITOR Mr. Editor: In reference to the fall of the frame of a building in Tenth street yesterday, I wish to say that the job was not under my supervision as stated in the 'Times'. It was Mr. MOODY'S job, and the work was under the direction of his men. The cause was an attempt to put on the roof before the building was properly stayed. John ARCHIBALD, 2D. MEETING The political Belleveretts, the particular friends of the Union, or in other words, the National Union Club of Troy, met last evening and appointed Harvey SMITH delegate to the State Convention which meets at Utica on the 12th. Lewis LILLIE, Jonas C. HEARTT, John S. PERRY, F.B. HUBBELL and C.L. RICHARDS were appointed alternates. No other business of importance was transacted. The attendance at the meeting was small though select. ACCIDENTS On Sunday last, a little son of Mr. R. CLARKE, was standing in the yard back of his father's premises, when a ventilator to an outhouse, about fifteen feet long, fell, and in its descent struck the lad on the head. He was taken up insensible, but by the proper application of restoratives, was soon returned to consciousness. A clothes line broke the fall of the ventilator, and saved the boy's life. Thomas SULLIVAN, a boy aged eight years, whose parents reside on Congress street, Lansingburgh, was drowned yesterday in the River in the rear of No. 4's engine house. His body has not yet been recovered. As a little lad named George CUMMINGS, about eight years of age, was bathing in the River near the Falls, on Friday last, he went in beyond his depth, and would have drowned, had it not been that John BROWN, merchant, saw the little fellow struggling, and hastened to his assistance. When the lad was taken out he was unconscious. BODY FOUND The body of the boy VAN OSTRAND, who was drowned on Friday last, was found in the river near the steamboat landing last evening. Coroner MADDEN held an inquest. The funeral took place this morning. UP NORTH C.R.

The coat and vest were found on the person of the prisoner, but the money was gone. He is in jail. BEATEN Mr. J. M. SPENCER, who resides on Mohawk street, in the Third Ward, was brutally beaten on Saturday night last, at the corner of Howard and Remsen streets, by a gang of ruffians who frequent that part of the village, evidently for the purpose of provoking a row with peaceably disposed citizens who may be called upon to pass that way, after nine o'clock at night.

Troy Daily Times Rensselaer County, NY July 9, 1860 FUNERAL The funeral of Mrs. G.W. CHAMBERLIN, who was suddenly stricken down last week, with paralysis, took place yesterday morning from the Universalist church. A large and sympathizing assemblage of friends of the deceased,--whose amiable qualities and womanly graces had endeared her to a large circle--was present on the solemn occasion. In the death of his estimable lady Mr. CHAMBERLIN has sustained an irreparable loss. A woman of unobtrusive worth and sterling character, rich in all those graces that make companionship attractive and endear the home circle, she faithfully performed the duties of her allotted sphere as a true wife and mother, and attached to herself the sympathy and love of all who knew her. Stricken down when apparently in the bloom of health, and suddenly removed from the scenes she had graced so well, she is mourned by friends who will weave about her memory the richest remembrances of virtue and womanly dignity. In his sad bereavement, Mr. CHAMBERLIN has the heartfelt sympathy of the community. Death Of A Former Trojan -- Major Edmund FRENCH, for some time a resident of Troy, and Superintendent of the Hudson River Railroad, died in Washington on Saturday, aged about 56 years. His disease was jaundice. Mr. FRENCH had lately been subjected to persecution for an alleged defalcation from one of the Departments at Washington in which he was employed, and his trial was to have begun the morning of his death. It was confidently believed by his friends that he would have established his innocence beyond a doubt. Major FRENCH was a graduate at West Point--the classmate and intimate friend of Hon. Jefferson DAVIS. He married a daughter of Elias PATTERSON, of Troy, and leaves many relatives here to lament his death. His son, a young man of exceeding promise, was killed a year or two since, while gunning in Minnesota, by his companion, who mistook him for game, and who fired with such precision as to kill him almost instantly. Young FRENCH only had time to write on the blank page of a Bible the circumstances of the accident, and to exculpate his friend from all blame. DIED In this city, July 8th, Cyrus G. WOOD, in the 83d year of his age. Friends are respectfully invited to attend his funeral tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon at 1 o'clock from No. 37 Adams street. ACCIDENTS About 10 o'clock this morning, as a two story frame building was being raised on Tenth street, under the supervision of Mr. John ARCHIBALD, it fell in consequence of the slipping away of one of the screws. A timber fell upon the hip of Thomas BOLAND, which was severely crushed and it is feared broken. Mr. ARCHIBALD was also badly hurt in one of his wrists. On Saturday, a man named Patrick O'BRIAN, of Pine Valley, Chemung county, a hand employed on the canal boat "Lake Erie," was caught by a coil of rope forming part of the tow-line, while the boat was coming up from Albany to this city, and had his limb mangled in a shocking manner. He was brought on the boat as far as West Troy, and then taken in a carriage to the Marshall Infirmary, in this city, where the limb was amputated above the ankle. A boy named GILLIES, son of Donald GILLIES, aged about 10 years, was run over on Saturday evening by a double team, near the Headquarters Hotel, on Congress Hill. The boy's leg was broken and he was otherwise seriously injured. He was taken home, when medical aid was obtained. A child of the late (?) E. BATTERSHALL, (on Harrison Place) on Friday evening, got up in its sleep and walked out of an upper window and fell to the ground. Some of the child's bones are broken, and it is feared is fatally injured. Child Drowned In A Cistern--Mary LISTON, about two and a half years old, living with her father (its mother being dead) in Ohio street, West Troy, whilst at play in the yard, fell into the cistern unobserved and was drowned. The little one had probably been dead half an hour when discovered. Coroner WITBECK held an inquest. Verdict in accordance with the above facts. POLICE COURT - Justice PARMENTER, presiding: James KENNEDY, drunk, discharged on promise to go to work. George M. CLINTOCK, captain of a canal boat; drunk in the street.

FOLEY, of No. 116 Magnolia Street, is relating to friends a series of interesting adventures, including a night when the party became lost in the deserts of Nevada. On the way from California into Nevada, he crossed Death Valley and encountered intense heat at a time when other parts of the country were suffering from midwinter cold. At Weepah, Nevada, he found a tent city of five thousand persons attracted by news of big gold strikes. He also visited other Nevada mining camps and was shown glistening samples of ore taken out of the numerous excavations in the neighborhood. The fact that impressed itself on his memory particularly was that water was expensive in two ways; it cost huge sums to fill the radiator, and it evaporated so fast that the engine was continually getting hot. Returning eastward through Utah, the party found the passes over the Continental Divide blocked by fifteen-foot drifts, and had to turn south into Arizona and come back eastward close to the Mexican line. Once east of the mountains, they turned north to Colorado Springs and Denver, and thence came across Kansas and Missouri, and so on by improved roads to Rochester. Mr. Foley was told that the passes would not be open until June, he says, the winter in the mountains having been unusually severe. WOMAN HELD AS PAL OF YOUTH ACCUSED OF ROBBING AGED MAN Hazel ZELOFF, 28 years old, of Syracuse, who, police say, aided James TAYLOR, 26 years old, of Syracuse, in assaulting and robbing an aged man here last week, was arrested yesterday morning in Syracuse as a fugitive from Justice. Detective DOHERTY will return her from Syracuse this morning. She will be arraigned in City Court for second degree grand larceny and second degree assault. Taylor was arrested on a similar charge Saturday. According to detectives, Taylor and the woman gave James HAMILTON, 62 years old, of Newark, a brutal beating in a room at No. 9 Scio Street. After beating the man, it is alleged, they robbed him of $42. Part of Hamilton's ear was bitten off in the fight, police say. The arrests were made on information furnished Syracuse police by Detectives Doherty and SMYLIE. DEATHS Max DREAS died Saturday, aged 45 years.

Zeiner newspaper_name: Rochester Democrat and Chronicle newspaper_date: April 25, 1927 town_of_publication: Rochester county_of_publication: Monroe state_of_publication: New York newspaper_article: RETURNS FROM NEVADA'S GOLD MINING CAMPS ROCHESTERIAN ENCOUNTERED PLENTY OF SNOW IN MOUNTAIN PASSES Home from an automobile trip to California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico, Raymond J. FOLEY, of No. 116 Magnolia Street, is relating to friends a series of interesting adventures, including a night when the party became lost in the deserts of Nevada. On the way from California into Nevada, he crossed Death Valley and encountered intense heat at a time when other parts of the country were suffering from midwinter cold. At Weepah, Nevada, he found a tent city of five thousand persons attracted by news of big gold strikes. He also visited other Nevada mining camps and was shown glistening samples of ore taken out of the numerous excavations in the neighborhood. The fact that impressed itself on his memory particularly was that water was expensive in two ways; it cost huge sums to fill the radiator, and it evaporated so fast that the engine was continually getting hot. Returning eastward through Utah, the party found the passes over the Continental Divide blocked by fifteen-foot drifts, and had to turn south into Arizona and come back eastward close to the Mexican line. Once east of the mountains, they turned north to Colorado Springs and Denver, and thence came across Kansas and Missouri, and so on by improved roads to Rochester. Mr. Foley was told that the passes would not be open until June, he says, the winter in the mountains having been unusually severe. WOMAN HELD AS PAL OF YOUTH ACCUSED OF ROBBING AGED MAN Hazel ZELOFF, 28 years old, of Syracuse, who, police say, aided James TAYLOR, 26 years old, of Syracuse, in assaulting and robbing an aged man here last week, was arrested yesterday morning in Syracuse as a fugitive from Justice. Detective DOHERTY will return her from Syracuse this morning. She will be arraigned in City Court for second degree grand larceny and second degree assault. Taylor was arrested on a similar charge Saturday. According to detectives, Taylor and the woman gave James HAMILTON, 62 years old, of Newark, a brutal beating in a room at No. 9 Scio Street. After beating the man, it is alleged, they robbed him of $42. Part of Hamilton's ear was bitten off in the fight, police say. The arrests were made on information furnished Syracuse police by Detectives Doherty and SMYLIE. DEATHS Max DREAS died Saturday, aged 45 years. He leaves three sons, Edward, Earl and Willard DREAS; a daughter, Dorothy DREAS, his mother, Mrs. H. WOHLGEMUTH; a brother, Antony DREAS, and a sister, Mrs. William KING.

Spirit of the Times Batavia, Genesee County, New York State December 25-1880 HYMENEAL*. (* relating to the 'god of marriage') During the present month considerable activity has prevailed among the devotees of hymen, in the town of Pembroke, and particularly in the locality popularly known as the "For_ Settlement." The last event brought by those anxious to do homage to this ancient god, transpired on Wednesday evening of last week at the residence of Mr. Andrew FORWARD, whose daughter, Miss Cora E., was united by Elder CHILDS, of North Pembroke, in the holy bonds of matrimony to Mr. Howard H. FOUNTAIN, of South Alabama. After the ceremony, the guests to the number of about one hundred, were sumptuously entertained at a table groaning under all the eatables and delicacies with which they are usually spread on such occasions. The presents were very numerous, and with few exceptions, quite costly, comprising a great variety of silverware, household fixtures, etc. Among the guests present were Mr. SHELDON and wife, of Honeoye Falls, Mr. DAVIS and wife of Rochester, and from Batavia, Mr. E.N. STONE and wife, Mr. W.S. ANDERSON and wife, Mr. H.H. BENJAMIN and wife, Mr. RUSSELL and daughter, Mr. N.E. HOLLISTER and wife, Mr. W. YOUNG and sister. The bride and bridegroom left next day on the Atlantic express for the east, intending to spend their honeymoon in visiting friends and relatives and places of interest in that direction. May health and happiness attend them through life. ++ Overcoats, Ulsteretts, Heavy Clothing and Scarlet Wrappers and Drawers at great bargains, to reduce stock for inventory. Full stock of fine Dress suits, and Business suitings for Men's and Boys' wear constantly on hand. Full assortment of Gent's Furnishing Goods, new and stylish. All are invited to call. C.R. GOULD. + BOLD BURGLARY. Periodically we have to record burglaries in town, but the one committed on Monday night surpassed all others in boldness of execution and the utter failure to secure plunder. About midnight, it is thought, burglars forced an entrance into GUITEAU's leather store on Jackson street, by breaking out a pane of glass in the front door. They made a systematic attack to blow open one of the safes, expecting to secure a large amount of money, as Mr. G. is County Treasurer, but who never leaves money in the safe over night. But the joke is on the burglars, for the safe was not locked, the bolts merely being turned. But evidently they did not anticipate it in that condition, for they went to the labor of drilling a hole through the door with tools stolen from George TRUMBULL's blacksmith shop, and pouring in powder the charge was fired, but resulted only in ruining the lock, the concussion breaking two large panes of glass in the north window. Failing in this, they tried to pry open the safe door, but in that they were alike unsuccessful, after which they left, and no trace of them has been discovered. It is thought that the burglars must have come into town on one of the late trains and left on the early morning train. It is curious that neither the breaking glass nor the explosion aroused any one on the street. ++ LEASED THE OPERA HOUSE. Mr. Henry C. FERREN informs us that he has become the leasee and manager of the Dellinger Opera House, and it is his intention to introduce none but first class entertainments for the gratification of our citizens. Mr. F. has had considerable insight into the "show" business and on that account is conversant with all the leading entertainments traveling. We wish him abundant success. ++ Thos. MOGRIDGE has a few more first class Cutters and Sleighs just finished, which he intends to sell during the holidays at lowest cash prices. Give him a call.--Shops in rear of Worthington's hardware store. ++ THE JACKSON SHOOTING AFFAIR--IMPROVED CHANCES FOR MRS. JACKSON'S RECOVERY--PETITION TO HAVE JACKSON COMMITTED TO THE STATE LUNATIC ASYLUM. The physicians report a more favorable change in the condition of Mrs. JACKSON, who was shot in the head by her husband last week, the particulars of which were published in The Times. We learn that Mrs. JACKSON is able to articulate and converse feebly, but takes considerable nourishment, and hopes are now entertained that she will recover, although the pistol ball remains in her head. JACKSON, at times, acts in a very strange manner, and shows symptoms of insanity. We understand that an application has been made to the County Judge to have him committed to the State Lunatic Asylum, based on a verified petition made by Mr. HOYT, JACKSON's father-in-law. The County Judge has set the case down for a hearing on Monday next, when several medical men will give their testimony as to his sanity. BOWEN & GREENE are the attorneys for the petitioner, and the District Attorney will assist at the reference. ++ BUSINESS FAILURE. Not a little surprise was manifested on the street last Wednesday, when it became known that Mr. John PEIRSON, who has conducted the large fruit canning establishment at Bushville for some years, had suspended with heavy liabilities. We refrain from giving hearsay amounts of indebtedness, as the true figures are not as yet known. The First National Bank, the National Bank of Geneseo and the Bank of Batavia each hold paper to a large amount, but it is thought the securities will cover it. Quite a number of merchants in town will lose heavily, and the employes at Bushville who have long worked in the factory are, we understand, heavy losers, which will bear hard on many of them, especially at this season of the year. We are sorry in a business point of view that Mr. PEIRSON is so circumstanced, for since he started the canning factory some years ago he has given employment to a great number of hands, and as a consequence, materially helped business in town. We hope he will be able to arrange his affairs so that he can start again, but owing to his heavy liabilities we think it hardly possible. ++ AS IT USED TO BE. An old copy of the Albany 'Gazette,' dated October 13th, 1804, has been unearthed by some relic hunter and contains the following item that will interest alike the farmer and business man of the present day:-- "A wagon load of wheat was, the present week, brought to this market from the town of Bloomfield, in the county of Ontario, 220 miles from this city. The quantity was 100 bushels, and was drawn by four yoke of oxen, and had the traveling been good, we are told, might with equal ease have been increased to 150 bushels. It was purchased at Bloomfield at five shillings a bushel, and sold at seventeen shillings and three pence. The net proceeds of this load of wheat, after paying all expenses and deducting the prime cost, is not less than one hundred dollars. The journey coming and returning, it is supposed, can be performed in twenty days, notwithstanding the badness of the roads." ++ ARREST OF A SHARPER. A young man, who gave his name as William BLUEBIRD, was arrested by officer ROBSON on Tuesday, on the complaint of Rev. Father McMANUS, who charges him with obtaining money under false pretenses. BLUEBIRD, it is said, would visit the houses and request aid for charitable purposes, and in order to complete his work more expeditiously, would inform the person answering his call, that the Rev. Father had subscribed a handsome amount. This ruse appeared to work satisfactory, and when arrested BLUEBIRD was trying the game on officers at the Institution for the Blind. He was committed to jail to await an examination. ++ THE APPLE MARKET. Jack Frost has toned up the apple market. Considerable amounts were nipped by the recent low temperature and the result will be advanced prices. The eastern market, especially will be firm. A New York paper says: "It is estimated that not less than 50,000 barrels of apples in New York, or in transit to this market, have been frozen and rendered entirely worthless. Many barrels were caught on the canal, and, although not yet all destroyed, there is but little hope of saving them. This will run the loss up to more than 100,000 barrels. From present appearance it looks as if apples would advance 25 per cent in price in the next ten days. ++ To the Ladies of Batavia and Vicinity: I will place upon my counters, for the next ten days, the following articles at 25 cents: Hats, Wings, Feathers, Ornaments, envelopes of Ribbons, Remnants of Silk, Velvets and Satins. I will also close out my entire stock of Trimmed Hats and Bonnets at the lowest possible rates. J.F. KENYON. No. 70 Main St. + Ladies will save money by purchasing Millinery Goods of Mrs. G.F. ABBOTT, No. 15 Main St., opposite County Clerk's office, Batavia, N.Y. + MARRIED. ODELL-CROSSMAN. In Batavia on the 20th inst., at the residence of the bride's parents, by the Rev. W. C.

Wishing to retire from business after steady application for twenty-five years, I offer my elegant Hotel in Batavia, known as the WASHBURN HOUSE, on Main street located in the business center of the village, for sale on liberal terms. The hotel is a solid brick structure, erected in 1870, four stories in height, well arranged and finished, and furnished with capacity to accommodate 100 guests and has always done a successful business, and is an exceedingly desirable property in the hands of a hotel man of experience. The furniture, which is in excellent condition, will be sold, with the premises, if desired, on accomodating terms. In the rear of the hotel are large barns and sheds with accommodations for one hundred horses. If not sold by the first of March, 1881, the premises will be for rent. Batavia, Genesee Co., N.Y.

Peaches of good quality have been quite plentiful for the past few days and the prices charged are about the same as usual during the season. There seems to be an unusual mortality among the children in this county at present, undoubtedly caused by the continued hot weather. A peculiar freak of nature may be seen in John MOORE's orchard, north of Bushville. On an apple tree there are both fruit and blossoms on the same limb. Editor BISHOP, of the Attica News, went to Warsaw this morning to attend court, his libel suit being on the calendar. It is probably, however, that it will be again deferred.

The burial took place at three o'clock a.m. Funeral services were held at the Cary M.E. church yesterday afternoon, Rev. A.W. HAYES officiating. ++ DEATH OF JOHN B. WOOD. John B. WOOD, who was well known throughout Genesee county as one of the very oldest inhabitants of this town, died this morning at the County House. His body will be brought to this village for burial to-morrow, the funeral services taking place at the grave at half-past nine in the morning. ++ MEETING OF THE LAND LEAGUE. Aurelius MacSWYNIE, a native of Cork, Ireland, but now a resident of Hartford, Conn., delivered an eloquent and favorable address last evening on the subject of Ireland's wrongs, to a large and sympathetic audience. Mr. MacSWYNIE dwelt upon what he was pleased to term the atrocious and tyrannical reign of the English in Ireland, during which time, he said, the latter county has been robbed of all glory as a nation except her nationality. This reign, the speaker continued, has stunted the genius of the Irish people and crushed their industries. Messrs. J.C. SHULTS, D.J. SWEENEY, M. MOLONEY, E. O'CONNOR,, T.J. FITZGERALD, T. LYNCH, and T.J. CARY occupied seats on the platform. Mr. MacSWYNIE was frequently applauded during his address, at the conclusion of which Mr. T.J. CARY made a brief speech which was well received by the audience. ++ All of the fall styles of hats and caps just received, at John THOMAS'. ++ ARRESTED FOR STEALING. This morning an old lady entered KENYONS' store and desired to change some white sauce dishes of a new style for some colored ones. Mr. YATES, who waited upon her, knew at once that they had been stolen, and told her so. She professed ignorance, saying that she obtained them from her daughter, a Mrs. George W. THAYER, who lives over PALMER's shoe store. The old lady left for her daughter's and Mr. YATES went and notified Justice JOHNSON. The gentlemen started to Mrs. THAYER's rooms and met her on the stairs. She was very indignant. Justice JOHNSON issued a warrant, however, and the woman was arrested and taken to the Justice's office, where she first stated that she obtained them from a boarder named WRIGHT in part payment for his board. Finally she confessed that her husband took them. Mr. THAYER was sent for and seeing how necessary it was for a plausible story, said that he bought the dishes one morning at 5 o'clock from an old man on the street. The stories of husband and wife, however, like the glassware, were very transparent, and the Justice made them understand that he did not believe them. Mr. THAYER magnanimously offered to return the sauce set and compromise the matter, which was done by his paying the costs of the arrests. The dishes were stolen last Friday morning from a barrel in the rear of KENYONS' store. ++ UNION SCHOOL MATTERS. Miss L. ROOD, who for many years has been a teacher in various departments of the Union School, has resigned her position in the eighth grade on account of ill health and Miss Kate BENHAM has been promoted to the position from the grade below. The place thus made vacant will be filled by Miss Lucy HAMILTON, an accomplished young lady who has every qualification for the position. Miss HAMILTON graduated from the Fredonia Normal School last year, and is thoroughly conversant with the duties which she has assumed. There were upwards of four hundred and fifty pupils registered in the Union School last week, notwithstanding the extreme heat. A larger number than ever before registered the first week of the school year. What to do with the pupils in the primary departments is a question that is perplexing the Board of Education. ++ Take a look at the new styles of soft and stiff hats, at John THOMAS'. ++ submitted by Linda C.

Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State December 8-1897 INCREASES HIS CONTRACT. E.M. VAIL of East Oakfield writes Charles A. KIBBE that after carefully considering the matter he has decided to change his sugar-beet contract, increasing the amount from ten to 18 acres, and signing for five years instead of one. Mr. VAIL says that he would not advise anyone to contract for less than five acres, as he doesn't think it would pay to cultivate small plats. He urges Genesee county farmers to get in on the ground floor and not allow adjoining counties to capture large acreages. South Alabama.--Farmers in this vicinity have signed contracts to raise an aggregate of 25 acres of sugar beets. ++ FUNERAL AT NORTH BYRON. Funeral services for Miss Achsah WHIPPLE, who died on November 20th at the home of her nephew, George WHIPPLE of Carylon[sic], will be held at the church at this place at 11 a.m. on Sunday. Miss WHIPPLE went to Carlyon[sic] to attend the funeral of her nephew George, who died from typhoid fever. She found her nephew's widow ill with the same disease and stayed to care for her. Soon Miss WHIPPLE and her nephew Dana were stricken with it and they died on the same day. Mrs. George WHIPPLE recovered. Miss WHIPPLE, who was 59 years of age, had resided in this town nearly all her life and was held in high esteem. She is survived only by one brother, the father of George and Dana WHIPPLE. ++ DR.

The child was then about five years old, and the parties all resided where Mrs. F now lives in Alabama, in this county. A large number of witnesses have all ready been examined, and the case is yet in progress. It of course, excited a good deal of interest, particularly in the neighborhood where the parties resided. The accused we understand is youthful, and not unprepossessing in appearance, and asserts her innocence of this, or any like offenses, and attributes the prosecution to local excitement and prejudice. We purposely refrain from expressing any opinion in the premises, or saying a word which might tend on the one hand to the injury of a woman charged with so grave and unnatural crime, or on the other to prevent the fullest and fairest inquiry into the real facts of the case. MR. BOWEN, the District Att'y, conducts the examination in behalf of the People, and Messrs.

(LeRoy, Genesee Co., NY) LeRoy Gazette June 24, 1857 WHERE IS HE? Pavilion, June 22, 1857. C.B. THOMSON:-- Mr. A.E. MERRILL, -- a steady mechanic, left this place about six weeks ago under the following circumstances. The house he had occupied having been sold, he removed his family to a friend in Morganville, till he could secure another place to live. He stayed around here a few days and went as he said for his family. His friend entertained his wife and three children two weeks, and came to see what had become of him. He said nothing about his plans, nor has he been heard from since he went away. It is difficult to imagine the cause of his singular conduct.

Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State January 11-1889 SMALL-POX AT WYOMING. The small-pox cases at Wyoming are in family of P. HIGGINS, who lives about four miles West of the village. The disease was taken there by a boy named Frank CURREN of Buffalo, a relative, who contracted it in Buffalo. He was taken sick nearly three weeks ago, and at first the attending physicians (one of them of long practice) pronounced his disease chicken-pox. Ten days ago five of the HIGGINS' children were attacked by the same malady, and early this week Mr. and Mrs. HIGGINS came down with it. Then it was discovered that it was small-pox. There were at that time eight cases under the same roof. Two members of the family--an infant of eleven months and a boy eight years old--are not sick. One of the HIGGENS children, aged five years, died on Wednesday. ++ FIRE SCARE AT OAKFIELD. At 11 o'clock yesterday during the high wind smoke was seen coming from the roof of J.F. TILLEY's house at the corner of Main and Drake streets. An alarm of fire was given, the church bell rung and the volunteer firemen hurried to the scene. The fire engine was brought out, but fortunately it was not needed, as it was found to be a chimney burning out and was easily extinguished. One excited business man carried a pail of water to the scene and then very carefully took it back to his place of business. In addition to unroofing HALSEY & FRARY's warehouse Wednesday night's storm blew down many chimneys, including the smokestack at NOBLES's mill, and the windmills of W.F. REED and John WAKEMAN (the latter of Wheatville) were wrecked. Several of Charles GOFF's apple trees were blown down. William COLLIER of Clinton, formerly of this place, is visiting friends in town. Mr. L. _. STEDMAN has charge of the affairs of E.H. VanHOESEN. ++ DEATH OF FORMER BATAVIAN. Richard LIVINGSTON, a senior member of the firm of LIVINGSTON & HARMON, proprietors of the Hotel LIVINGSTON, Rochester, died yesterday morning after a prolonged illness. Mr. LIVINGSTON was born in Batavia forty-three years ago, and resided at Mount Morris and Niagara Falls before going to Rochester. At Mount Morris he was in the hotel and livery business and was connected with the Cataract House at Niagara Falls. ++ BERGEN'S CANNING FACTORY. On Wednesday evening the ways and means committee reported that the amount subscribed for the canning factory was $768. The committee were instructed to continue their work and report tomorrow evening. The following are the amounts raised by the committee: J.R. McKENZIE, $368, Philip SNYDER, $147.50, D.W. HOWELL, $82.50, Morse T. WHITE, $80., C.N. CARPENTER, $50, George H. CHURCH, $40. Edward JENKINS has begun an action against Matthew LILES and William B. MILLER for $500 damages, and on Wednesday Sheriff REEDY served the necessary papers. Messrs. LILES and MILLER broke into JENKINS' house about a month ago and held possession, to the great fright of the family, until Constable HATCH evicted them. Matthew LILES is a son of Abraham C. LILES, whose place was bought by JENKINS at Sheriff's sale. Yesterday morning about 4 o'clock the part of the brick wall of the Luscher block which had been standing since the fire three years ago last summer, was blown over, and falling upon a wooden addition of the Southworth block, used for a kitchen by Mrs. PRIMMER, completely wrecked it. Some of the bricks fell through the window of the room and upon the bed where young PRIMMER was sleeping, but without injuring him. ++ A BUSINESS CHANGE. Barnard SCHAD has purchased the interest of Messrs. J.C. and Frank SHULTS and M.C. HACKLEY of Batavia and H.C. TIFFANY of Darien in the SCHAD bicycle wheel for hose carts and agricultural implements which has heretofore been manufactured by the above named gentlemen, together with Mr. SCHAD, under the name of the SCHAD Manufacturing Co. Mr. SCHAD will continue the manufacturing of his bicycle wheel at his place of business and will in connection with that do a general repairing and machine business. Mr. SCHAD says he has now more orders in than he can fill in some time, and more are constantly coming. ++ submitted by Linda C. Schmidt
