Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, July 9, 1902 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Fernwood - The death of Mr. A. L. Learned which occurred on Wednesday last cast a shadow of gloom over our entire community. Although he had been very ill a long time we all hoped he might be spared to his family and friends for a while at least. The funeral was largely attended on Sunday from his late home by the Rev. L. C. Wright, who spoke words of comfort from Romans 8:18, the one in which Mr. L. loved to console himself with during his suffering. A wife in poor health, and four children are left to mourn and live without the counsel and love to help them which the husband and father was wont to give, but they do not mourn without a hope for their hopes are built on nothing less than Jesus blood and righteousness. The floral tributes were beautiful, a broken wheel, and a compass of pansies and green leaves, from the league; a pillow of pink and white roses and geranium leaves, from the Sunday school; calla lilies, water lilies and other flowers in a great profusion, but it did not hide the thought from the broken hearted wife that he had gone never to return.
