∼Camden - Albert G. Bagg who died on Tuesday at his home in Guthrie, Oklahoma, was born in Prospect 49 years ago and had lived there most of his life. His father was also a native of the town. At the breaking out of the war Mr. Bagg enlisted in Co. E, of the 14th Regiment, and went through all the battles in which the regiment participated. Coming home, he conducted a cheese factory at Stittville, for a long time. Selling this, he purchased the hotel at Prospect, long kept by Wm. P. Dodge, which he conducted for a number of years and still owns.
A little over two years ago when Oklahoma was established, Mr. Bagg went to that territory and was among the first of the boomers to reach the promised land. In his case it was literally promised land, for Mr. Bagg was one of the early volunteer soldiers to whom the government promised land in the west, and he was awarded a fine tract| four miles outride of Guthrie. He also secured a corner lot opposite the City Hall in Guthrie, and in the first election in that city he was chosen alderman of the first ward. He has since carried on a real estate business. He had been sick some time with a dropsical affection, and his death was caused by heart failure. Mr. Bagg was well known in Oneida county
as a business man. He was well educated, enterprising and very genial, and had hosts of friends. In politics he was an ardent Democrat, and once in this county was a candidate for the nomination of county clerk. He was a member of the Utica Citizens' Corps, of Hinckley Post, G.
A.R., and of Remsen Lodge of Masons.
He married Miss Frances Barnes of Floyd, sister of H. Ray Barnes of Utica, and D H. Barnes.
Mrs. Bagg and a daughter, May C., reside in Guthrie. The two sons are G. Ray Bagg of Utica, and Stanley F. Bagg of
