Ransom Trumbull Rites Are Friday

Ransom Trubull, 88, of the Lehigh district died in the Oswego city hospital Tuesday afternoon where he had been a patient only five days. He had been in poor health for several years and made his home at the Lodge nursing home for the past four years.

His only near survivor is a nephew, J. Roy Ellis, of R.D. Pulaski.

Funeral services will be private at the Foster Funeral home Friday afternoon at 2 p.m. with the Rev. James N. Pauley officiating. Interment will be made in Riverside cemetery. Friends may call at the funeral home Thursday evening between 7 and 8 p.m.

Mr. Trumbull was born on the family homestead in the Lehigh district, Jan. 29, 1863, son of James and Mary Johnson Trumbull. In his younger days he worked at the old Box factory desk works and later was a pattern maker at the Ontario Iron Works for about 15 years. Following his work there he was employed at the William Wilder Lumber Co., in the door, sash and blind department of the work shop until his retirement some 30 years ago, when he returned to the old homestead.

Being active in both the Masonic and Odd Fellow organizations in his younger days he was a 32nd degree Mason at one time, participating in all the activities of the local lodge. After his return to the farm he dropped his membership in both organizations and lived a very quiet life with his sister, the late Mrs. Francis Trumbull Ellis, until her death about four years ago.
