been worried over financial matters and the loss of his position as

hanging in the barn. She cut the rope and lowered the remains. Dr.
Haslett was called and efforts made to resuscitate him but to no avail.

Killed on the Railroad - Frank Quin, of this village, a young man
about 24 years of age, in the employ of the N. Y. Central R. R. Co. as
a brakeman, fell from his train and was instantly killed on Saturday
morning last. The circumstances attending the fatal casualty are
thus detailed in the Rochester Union:
He was in the way car calling a lunch when, hearing an unusual noise
about the car, he went to the platform to ascertain the cause of it.
Grasping the railing he leaned over the side of the car to look
at the track when his feet slipped and he was precipitated to the
ground, striking his head on a tie, dislocating his neck.
The engineer of a freight train following the one on which deceased was
employed, saw him lying on the ground, stopped his train and picked him
up, but he died in the course of two or three minutes.
His body was brought home to Geneva on Saturday evening, and interred
in the Catholic Cemetery on Monday. Frank was a noble boy, a
universal favorite with all who knew him. Poor fellow ! He wrote
his widowed mother that he would be home and spend the sabbath with
her. The promise was fulfilled -- but alas, instead of appearing
before he in the bloom
of youth and health, he is laid at her feet a lifeless and mangled
corpse
! God comfort her in her sore affliction.

A Death in the 148th - The painful intelligence reached us this
week of the death of our young townsman, Thos. Quinn, a member
of Capt. Gage's company (D) of the 148th. He died in Hospital at
Norfolk, Va., after a week's illness of typhoid fever. His body, kindly
forwarded by his Captain and comrades, arrived yesterday, and the
funeral took place this morning from the Catholic Church.
The family and friends of deceased express deep obligations to Capt.
Gage and the company, for their kind care of him while sick, and for
the becoming manner in which the body was laid out and prepared for
transportation home. It was a consolation to them to receive the
remains in a
good state of preservation, the features being almost as natural as
during
life.
The sad event called forth the following warm and touching letter
of sympathy and condolences from Capt. Gage to the father of the
deceased:
Norfolk, Va. Aug. 30, 1863
Mr. Hugh Quinn:
Dear Sir:
Before receiving this you will learn of the death of your son, Thomas,
by telegraph, whose body was sent by Express to you today. He was
loved and respected by the officers and soldiers of his company, always
ready and willing to do his duty, which he performed to the entire satisfaction
of his officers, and with great credit to himself. We mourn his
loss because in him we lose one who was ever kind and generous,
courteous and gentlemanly; and I know it will be a consolation to you,
when I say he
has not done a wrong act, either as a soldier or a man, since he parted
with you at Geneva. It is a loss to you, for in him you lose a
noble son -- a loss to his adopted country, for in him she loses a good
soldier.
Respectfully yours,
Obedient Servant
E. D. Gage
Captain, Co. D 148th Reg't N. Y. S. V.
