Mr. Stearns who is an old man, while alone, had cut a large gash in his throat with his razor, but failed to sever the juggler vain. He was still trying to complete the awful work. Fred Andrews was the first to reach the house and a few minutes later Sam Thompson arrived. They attempted to get the razor, but were threatened by the desperate man, who finally retreated into the bedroom and locked the door. Other men came and the window was broken and through that they prevented the fatal stroke being given. After a long parley the razor was secured and Mr. Stearns apparently gave up the attempt and allowed his wounds to be dressed. Later in the day he swallowed some Paris green which he had evidently secreted in the cellar. This was done during a momentary absence of those attending him and as oon as discovered, a physician was called, who applied the usual remedies. He was still alive, but unconscious. His family relations were harmonious. He had taken his wife on his knee, prior to the attempt and bade her good bye three times. He then pulled the razor from his pocket and declared his purpose to end his life. She gave the alarm, but before assistance could reach the house, he had made the attempt. Later - as we go to press we learn that he is dead. MRS. SARAH STEARNS died at her home, Shinglehouse, Sept. 12, 1888, wife of Consider Stearns, in 70th year of her age. Born in Alfred, Allegany County, NY, June 26, 1819. When about thirteen she came to Hebron with her parents, George and Britty Stillman. They were subject to trials of pioneer life. When about 18 she became a subject of saving grace. Baptized by Rev. W. B. Gillett and united with Seventh Day Baptist Church of Hebron. In 1848 married Consider Stearns and spent her married life in Hebron and Eulalia until recently her home has been at Shinglehouse. Leaves husband and two children, Roscoe C. Stearns and Lydia, wife of Dr. Tassell. Buried at Hebron. Rev. Jared Kenyon, of Independence. SARAH G. STEARNS - Potter County Jornal, May 11, 1893 Sarah G.

Sarah Stillman Stearns (1) fact 20201119HAv- Early Obituaries of Potter County, PA http://www.eg.bucknell.edu/~hyde/potter/Obituaries.html ASSOCIATE JUDGE CONSIDER STEARNS - Residents of upper East Street were startled on Monday forenoon, March 11, 1895 by screams from the home of Judge Stearns. Mr. Stearns who is an old man, while alone, had cut a large gash in his throat with his razor, but failed to sever the juggler vain. He was still trying to complete the awful work. Fred Andrews was the first to reach the house and a few minutes later Sam Thompson arrived. They attempted to get the razor, but were threatened by the desperate man, who finally retreated into the bedroom and locked the door. Other men came and the window was broken and through that they prevented the fatal stroke being given. After a long parley the razor was secured and Mr. Stearns apparently gave up the attempt and allowed his wounds to be dressed. Later in the day he swallowed some Paris green which he had evidently secreted in the cellar. This was done during a momentary absence of those attending him and as oon as discovered, a physician was called, who applied the usual remedies. He was still alive, but unconscious. His family relations were harmonious. He had taken his wife on his knee, prior to the attempt and bade her good bye three times. He then pulled the razor from his pocket and declared his purpose to end his life. She gave the alarm, but before assistance could reach the house, he had made the attempt. Later - as we go to press we learn that he is dead. MRS. SARAH STEARNS died at her home, Shinglehouse, Sept. 12, 1888, wife of Consider Stearns, in 70th year of her age.

Ira Fosmer (29) facts http://www.eg.bucknell.edu/~hyde/potter/Obituaries.html: DENNIS HALL - On Saturday, July 6, 1912, Dennis Hall, a well known pioneer of this county passed away at the Warren Asylum, where he had been for the past twenty three years. Remains were brought for burial in the Homer Cemetery, located on the farm which Mr. Hall cleared and resided on for many years. He was one of the first settlers in the part of Homer Township, known as South woods, where he reared a family and became a prosperous farmer. About 1872, Mr. Hall went to Emporium and embarked in business in that new town, but a serious sunstroke, added to grief over the death of his oldest and of his youngest sons, finally dethroned his reason, and required his care in the asylum. He was quite violent for several years but of late has been feeble and quiet, dying at the age of 86. Mr. Hall was the youngest of the children of Dennis Hall, an early resident of Coudersport; David T. hall, Maria, wife of Judge Lyman Nelson, Louisa, wife of Daniel Clark, Laverna, wife of Dennis Cheesbro, and Eunice, unmarried, constituted the family, all now dead. Funeral services held at residence of O. L. Hall on South East Street, Coudersport, Tuesday, July 9th at 2 o'clock. Rev. Geo. P.
