Miss Margaret M. Haynes
Miss Margaret M.

Haynes formerly resided in this borough.  (Tuesday, May 4, 1892, The Wellsboro Agitator, Wellsboro, Tioga Co, Pa.)

James Carle
Brig Gen. James Carle, for the last 22 years an Inspector in the United States public stores, died at his home, 262 West 21st street, New York city, last week Tuesday evening.  He had been sick 10 weeks with pneumonia.  General Carle was born at Windsor, NY, September 8, 1835, and at the age of 20, he entered the regular army as a private.  His five year term expired just before the civil war broke out.  He came to this region to visit his father who was engaged in lumbering near Galeton.  Immediately on the call for troops he came to Wellsboro and enlisted as a private in Captain Julius Sherwood’s company.  He was about the only man in this region at that time who was proficient in military tactics and he was actively employed in drilling the recruits in this borough before they left for the front.  Carle was soon promoted to a Lieutenancy, and later was made Captain of Company H, 6th Pennsylvania Infantry.  On June 6, 1864 he was made Colonel of the 191st Infantry.  In 1869 he was Provost Marshal to Gen. S. W. Crawford, and fought in the battles of Spottsylvania Court House and the Wilderness.  Soon after his appointment as Colonel a brigade was given to him which he conducted into all the actions in which Gen. Crawford’s division participated from Chickahominy until the withdrawal of the division.  On June 17, 1864, Col. Carle displayed such gallantry in the crossing of the James that Gen. Crawford recommended his appointment as a Brevet Brigadier General.  He obtained his commission in the following March.  At Weldon Road General Carle was captured and was confined in Libby, Salisbury, and Danville prisons at different times.  In 1870 Gen. Carle went into the public stores as Inspector, and he was engaged almost exclusively in the inspection of cigars.  He leaves two sons and a daughter.  Most of the boys in this region knew Captain Carle, and they all loved him, for he was possessed of those traits of character which attract and hold friendship.  He was remarkably modest but when the time of trial came he was found among the bravest and most efficient.  (Tuesday, May 4, 1892, The Wellsboro Agitator, Wellsboro, Tioga Co, Pa.)

Last Saturday afternoon Dennis Decker, aged about 55(or 65) years, an inmate of the county poor-house, committed suicide by hanging himself in a peculiar manner.  Decker had been in the institution for nearly two years, and he was a great sufferer from hernia.  He had frequently stated his desire to die, and had more than once asked Superintendent Peters and others to put him out of his misery.  Last Saturday afternoon Decker was seen going to the barn, and three quarters of an hour later his dead body was found.  He had placed a slipping-noose around his neck and attached the other end of the rope to the felly of a buggy wheel.  Then, standing on the barn floor and facing the wheel, he had evidently thrown himself back, and was strangled.  The knot in the rope was ingeniously made so that it could not loosen.  When found, the body had swung around and was in a sitting posture against the thill of the buggy.  On Sunday Justice Brewster and a jury composed of Messrs. Royal A. Wheeler, Hiram D. Deming, B. T. VanHorn, Frank Watkins, E. A.

Mrs. Eliza McGrath DePui
Tioga, May 16.--The death of Mrs. Eliza McGrath DePui, which took place on Sunday morning, May 8th, 1892, in Omaha, Neb., will fill with sorrow the hearts of a large circle of friends, both here and in the West where her last days were ended at the age of 82 years, after a long and lingering illness of several months at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. M. C. Nichols.  Mrs. DePui was born in 1810 at York, Pa.  She received the best educational and social advantages the country afforded at that day.  Her father, Thomas H. McGrath, was a man of high social position and entertained many distinguished men at his hospitable home, his accomplished family having the benefit of much cultured society.  Mrs. DePui always retained a lively impression of the personality of the different personages connected with her father’s memory, and loved to recall the prestige of her younger days in the home life.  She was married to Major Vine DePui at her father’s house in York in December, 1837.  They made the wedding journey by packet-boat and state-coach from York to Tioga in five days--a distance of 250 miles.  In the following spring they went to housekeeping at the old homestead on the DePui farm two miles below town, a picturesque and quaint house built and occupied by the parents of Vine, who was the first-born of eight children in that then new home.  The house was 32 years old when Mrs. DePui entered as a bride her future home.  Several children--six sons and one daughter were born to her, all of whom located in different parts of the West.  Two of the sons have died--George, a lawyer of promising ability, in Newville, IL, and James in Sedalia, from an injury on the cars.  Mrs. DePui was a wonderfully bright and attractive woman, and singularly adaptive in her nature.  Having been reared on the borders of slavery, where servants were plenty and cheap, it was a great change for her when she came up into this northern part of the State and found the ways and methods of domestic management so different; “help” scarce, the mothers and daughters “doing their own work” mostly, with perhaps one servant for the heavier part; yet she cheerfully threw her spirit into the “intricacies” of the situation, and with a winning grace and pleasantry she passed through an experience of several months, made bearable by her deep devotion to her husband, whose kind consideration and sympathetic endeavors to modify the quality of her cares.  Her second son, George, was born at her home in York, and when she came back to Tioga she brought two colored servants with her, who remained until her children were nearly grown.  The family moved from the farm to town in 1852, so as to be nearer the schools, and went back in 1860, where they remained until the death of Major DePui, which took place in 1889.  Four years later Mrs. DePui went West to live with her daughter, Mrs. Nichols, whose devotion to her mother all those years was something beautiful to witness.  It is a singular fact that Major Vine DePui’s death was the only one that occurred in that old house during its occupancy for 64 years by the DePui family.  (Tuesday, May 18, 1892, The Wellsboro Agitator, Wellsboro, Tioga Co, Pa.)
