The death of Orson Adelbert Hoag occurred at his home in Black Creek, N.Y. Tuesday morning at 4 o'clock, April 2, 1914.
The funeral services were held in the Black Creek M. E. church, following a brief prayer at the Hoag Home, Thursday, shortly after noon. the Rev. Charles Arthur Vandermuelen officiated, preaching fron the text, "There was a garden, and in the garden a new sepulchre," John 19:41. The two main thoughts of the sermon were, that there is a "grave" in every "garden of Life," and that "garden" surrounds every "grave," and we should live in the "garden" and not in the "grave." In closing, three windows , were referred to-the windows of Love, Faith and Hope. The services were largely attended by a host of Black Creek friends and neighbors of the deceased, and relatives from out of town. The floral contributions were fitting and beautiful. Burial was in Abbott cemetery, beside the grave of the mother of the deceased.
The relativees from out of town attending the funeral were: Reuben Hoag and daughter, Mrs. John Larrow, her husband and family, all of Friendship; James Barber, of Rochester; Mrs. George Wall, South Cuba; Mrs. Sarah Wood, Mr.and Mrs. Linus French, Abbotts; Mr. and Mrs. Charles DeKay and Miss Nina Golden, Cuba; Henry Hedding Franklinville; Mr. and Mrs. Eben Ford, Ischua; Mr. and Mrs. Jerone Reid, Andrew Swift and Mrs. Chas. Brown, Union Hill; Mr. and Mrs. Addie Scutt, Portville; Meryl Annis and two sisters Mrs. Charles Job and sand daughter margaret, Mr. and Mrs. N. Newman, Mrs. F. A. Fields, and Miss Frances Hathaway, Olean; Mrs. Paul Kotell, Shinglehouse Pa,; Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Clark, Cassopolos, Mich.; also Mr. and Mrs. Frank McVey, now residing in Black Creek.
Deceased was born in Middleton, Dane County, Wis., June 5, 1856. He came to Rawson when about four years of age, living there until removing to Black creek five years ago. He served in Rawson as Postmaster, also as Highway Commissioner. He was a Justice at the time of his death.
He was married February 10, 1909, to Estelle Hathaway Davis widow of the late J.E. Davis, of Black Creek, and mother of Homer L. Davis, well-known as proprietor o0f the Davis Store in Black Creek.
For some time, and especially about five weeks precious to his death he was not well, suffering frequently, mainly from difficulty in breathing, particularly after the least exertion. He did not consider this as very serious, however, and he was planning, just previous to his death, to consult a specialist as to the actual cause and trouble. On the Tuesday afternoon previous to his death he was taken with a servere coughing spell, such as he frequently suffered of late. Rev. Vandrmuelen, his pastor and more than ordinary friend, was at the time making a brief visit at the Hoag residence. In the midst of the coughing spell he suffered a severe shock, after which he never regained complete consciousness, nor spoke a word thereafter, and rapidly declined. It is thought that between the first shock and his death, other shocks occurred.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Estelle Hathaway Hoag, and his father Elijah Hoag, aged eighty-two from whom he has hardly been separated. The deep sympathy of all their friends, and of the community, is with them.
"Dell" Hoag as everyone who was his close friend or acquaintance called him, was a faithful son, husband, friend, man. Among the faithfull in Black Creek M.E. church, of which he was treasurer and trustee, he was one of the most faithful, and it was a rare Sabbath he was not "in his accustomed place." While he was not a member of the church according to the "letter of the law," there is not one church worker who closely knew him but what could attest to his being a member in "spirit of the law," -attest to his honesty, faithfulness concern for the welfare and success of the church,-aye, his Christianity. Even in the details of church work he was most attentive and interested. He was especially loved by the young people; he was their friend and was "one with them" whenever the opportunity offered.
The church loses a good fiend and faithful worker; his home loses a loved and faithful son and husband; his friends lose a good friend, the town loses a good and useful man;-and we have reason to hope that Heaven has gained a child deserving of the-well done.
