Two newspaper articles from 1883: The Daily News Batavia, Genesee Co., NY April 14-1883: They Smell to Heaven The bodies of two horses have lain all winter in a field south of the village adjoining the Attica railroad tracks, and, as the crows agitate the putrefying matter and the warm sun extends its influence, the stench in that vicinity is becoming unbearable. The Board of Health is reminded of the fact so that they may take speedy action. * * The Daily News Batavia, Genesee Co., NY April 24-1883: "Suicide in Warsaw" Special to 'Buffalo Express.' Warsaw.-April 23.-The dry goods house of Thomas S. GLOVER & Company, in this village, was closed to-day and crape hung on the door. Orace W. EMERY, a member of the firm, committed suicide early this morning at his residence by shooting himself in the right ear with a revolver, the ball from which lodged in his brain. He arose at an earlier hour than usual, and after working around the house, retired to the outhouse and fired the fatal shot, where he was found weltering in his life-blood. Mr. EMERY has been in poor health for years, and recently has appeared in a deep study upon what now seems to have been his own self-destruction. One of his brothers,, formerly a farmer at Pike, died recently at a Buffalo insane asylum. This appears to have preyed strongly on his mind. That the act had been premeditated for days was shown by his having taken the revolver from the store to the house several days ago. Coroner CUMMINGS of Castile held an inquest, the jury finding a verdict in accordance with the above facts. Mr. EMERY was known personally by a large share of residents of this county. He leaves a wife and two children. His age was forty-nine. *
