"Mrs. George W. Bonner passed away Friday morning of last week at 6 o'clock, at her home Worthington Hall, on Main street, this village, after several months of declining health. Her daughter, Mary Graham Bonner, the author of New York City, was at her bedside when the end came. Margaret Cary Worthington was the youngest daughter of John R. Worthington and Mary Alice Dorrance, a native of Delton, Mass. She was born in Worthington Hall, built in 1802 by her paternal grandfather, Ralph Worthington, one of the original settlers of Cooperstown. Her father, John R. Worthington, and her son, John R. Worthington Bonner, whose death occurred in 1908, completed a family line of four generations whose birthplace was within the dignified halls of that outstanding homestead. Upon her maternal side she was a descendant of the famous Trumbull family of New England, numbering among her ancestral kin Jonathan Trumbull, a member of General George Washington's staff, and John Trumbull, an artist of much renown in his time. Her brother, the late John Worthington, was twelve years United States consul to Malta, receiving his appointment under President Chester A. Arthur. In 1881 Miss Worthington was united in marriage with George W. Graham Bonner, one of the managers of the British Bank of North America in Halifax, Nova Scotia, whose death occurred in 1908. Surviving besides the daughter, Mary Graham Bonner, wife of Eugene E. Early of New York City, are two nieces, Mrs. Edward Pattison of Troy, and Mrs. Herbert S. Savory, widow of the late Admiral Savory, of London, England. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock from Worthington Hall. The Rev. Father Miles Lowell Yates, rector of Christ Church, of which Mrs. Bonner had been a life-long communicant, officiated, and the interment followed in the family plot in Lakewood cemetery."
