Our community was startled by the sad intelligence on Thursday last that Horatio Wright was dead. It seemed almost incredible that one who only a few days before was in our midst enjoying such good health and with such fair prospects of living to. a good old age should so suddenly be called away.

Horatio C, son of Rev. Sanford and Orinda Wright, was born in Garlinghouse Feb. 28, 1848, where be spent his boyhood days under the parental roof.  Arriving at majority, he went to Jackson, Mich., whereon July 4,1870, he married Miss Lydia Bryant. In 1876 he returned to Wayland, N. Y-, where he resided for five years, when he removed to Hornellsville,  where he resided until the time of his death.

Deceased was a professional painter, and was therefore well and favorably known, and will long be remembered by a large circle of acquaintances as a man of sterling integrity, noble impulses, generous to a fault, honest in his dealings, diligent in business, a kind neighbor, a fond, loving husband and father.  These qualities made him many friends, and we doubt if he had an enemy. 

His sickness was of short duration, no special fears being entertained for his recovery until a day or two before his death, when pneumonia claimed its victim. To his brother, who was caring for him, he gave the assurance that it was all well with him, that he was prepared and willing to go. His remains were brought to his brother, Marcus' home, at West Cotocton, where a funeral service was held January 21, Rev. D. C. Nye speaking words of consolation to a large concourse of friends and acquaintances, who were assembled to pay their last tribute of respect to one who in life they cherished and to mourn with those who mourn.

He leaves a companion, an only son, an aged father and mother, seven brothers, two sisters and a large circle of relatives to mourn his loss.

The rich profusion of flowers so generously contributed by the painters and friends at Homellsvilie and the large concourse of friends at his funeral was but a marked attestation of his worth. The interment was in Clear View Cemetery, North Cohocton.  January 27,1896.

She was united in marriage to John W. Agard, who died four years ago. Since her girlhood days she has resided in Garlinghouse or within a few miles of there where she has been so well and favorably known  and respected as a woman of sterling worth, a fond loving wife, and a kind and obliging neighbor, a most conscientious and earnest Christian, and an honored member of the Baptist church for many years.
