Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, January 21, 1903 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Mrs. W. J. Hubbs - On Tuesday morning, December 30th, at her home in Springfield, Massachusetts, occurred the death of Mrs. Wesley J. Hubbs, formerly Miss Mattie E. Peach, of Colosse, Oswego County. The funeral services were held here at the residence of her grandmother, Mrs. Catherine Be_nson, the house being filled with sorrowing and sympathizing friends, the Rev. Jesse B. Phelps, pastor of the Congregational church, of Pulaski, officiating. The Parish choir sang some impressive hymns. She was a woman of rare attractiveness of both person and character, loved by all who were so fortunate as to know her intimately, admired by those who had only a slight acquaintance with her. She graduated from Mexico Academy when but sixteen years old and from Oswego Normal in the class of 1900. Keen, quick intelligence, deep and ready thought, with a tenderness of heart, a sweet disposition and an innate nobility of character which combined with her bright and well-developed mind, made her a truly charming and inspiring woman. Lovely and fragrant flowers in great abundance from friends covered and surrounded the casket. Messrs. N. C. Pattat, O. W. Henn, of Syracuse; T. W. Breckheimer, of Oswego Normal school, and F. E. Henn, of Little France, cousins of the deceased, acted as bearers. The remains were placed in the receiving vault at Parish. She is survived by husband and infant daughter, father, mother and brother. -Little France Correspondent.
