"The Malone Farmer" [Malone, Franklin Co., NY], Wednesday, 30 Aug 1911:

Henry O. Taylor, of Muskegee [sic], Oklahoma, a brother of W. D. Taylor of North Bangor, and whose death was recently announced, did not meet with an accident as was first supposed because he had long been a railroad conductor, but, like Fred Shepard, of Lawrenceville, died following an operation for a severe case of gall stones. He was in the service of the Midland Valley R. R., and was such a favorite with the officials and employes [sic] that he was often called upon to adjust difficulties between the company and workmen, in which he was always successful. When he was attacked with his serious illness which was persistent and was finally thought to have developed into appendicitis he received every attention from the company by which he was employed and was taken to the company's hospital at Fort Smith, Arkansas. There it was found that his trouble was gall stones. He was successfully operated upon and seemed in a fair way to recover, but there came a relapse two days after the operation and the next day he died. He leaves a son who at 18 is a conductor on the same road and a married daughter at Muskegee, who has the care of his two younger children, aged eleven and four years. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Taylor, formerly of North Bangor, also survive, together with F. M. Taylor, a brother, of Newton, Iowa, and Mrs. W. E. Carpenter, a sister. The remains were interred at Newton. Deceased was a member of the national Brotherhood of Railroad Conductors and of the B. P. O. E., and the beautiful flowers at the funeral included a pillow and cross from these orders. He was 45 years of age.

NORTH BANGOR.

Death of Edwin A. Taylor at
Newton, Iowa

April 11 -- One of the best men who ever made this town his home died at Newton, Iowa, April 7th, and his passing is mourned by many old friends in this vicinity. Edwin A. Taylor was a devout Christian man of stalwart and upright character, who was a devoted member of the Congregational church and a pillar of the Union church while he resided in North Bangor. His calm judgment and unswerving loyalty to the highest ideals made him an influential factor in every worthy movement, and his kindliness, tolerance and generosity as a neighbor and friend gave him a beloved place in this community. There was universal regret when he moved away because he had children located in the West. Mr. Taylor was a native of Clarendon, Vt., who came to Bangor with his parents in early life. He married Minerva C. Cushman, of LaFargeville, N. Y., and a part of their early married life was spent on his uncle's farm in Clarendon. Returning to North Bangor they resided for many years on the splendid farm now occupied by Dwyer & Sons. In his farming he was active and progressive and in his home he was idealized as husband and father. In all his transactions he was the soul of honor and his example was everywhere an influence for good within the radius of his acquaintance. Establishing his home in Newton, Ia., he was pleasantly located there for years. Three years ago the home circle was broken by the death of his faithful life companion and he had since resided with his daughter, Mrs. W. E. Carpenter. For about a year he had been in declining health incident to his advancing years and had been confined to the house most of the winter, suffering from the effects of hardening of the arteries. He was 83 years of age. With the coming of spring he had taken courage, felt better and was able to be out, planning the putting-in of his garden. Last Thursday he was suddenly stricken with an apoplectic shock and survived only a couple of days. Two sons, a daughter and a sister are left in sorrow. The children are William D., of North Bangor; Fred M. and Mrs. Frances A. Carpenter, of Newton, Ia. Mrs. Editha Davis, the sister, resides in Springfield, Mass. The remains were brought to North Bangor and the funeral takes places from the Union church here this afternoon, Rev. J. R. Duffield, of Malone, officiating.
