Todd, Eliza Pirritte -- IN MEMORIAM ... Mrs. Eliza Pirritte Todd. "Friend after friend departs, There is no union here of hearts, That finds not here an end." Again and again as we journey onward, we miss from our number "A traveler, who worn with life's pilgrimage dreary, Lays down his rude staff like one who is weary, And sweetly reposes forever." We gather, as is our wont as members of a working band, to plan for future labor; the vacant chairs remind us that many of our coworkers have passed from labor to reward. On the 23d. of May we laid to rest "beneath the low green tent where curtain never outward swings" the form of our beloved sister and friend, Eliza Pirritte Todd. To-day we try to express, as sisters and friends, our sense of bereavement and our appreciation of her work as a woman, a friend, and a Christian worker. Therefore, By the members of the Women's Foreign Missionary Society and the members of the Women's Home Missionary Society it is Resolved, That we will ever cherish the memory of our sister, who coming among us as the daughter of a former pastor, was received with feelings of tender regard which has only been deepened by years of association with her in Christian work and fellowship. Quiet in her manner, yet decided in her views of rights and wrong and devout in spirit, she conscientiously and willingly performed, with hand, voice or pen, the duties assigned her as far as health would permit, and was often herself in advance in effective plans for the upbuilding of the church, the Sunday-school, the Band of hope and the missionary cause. Especially did she delight in adding to the church services by the use of flowers, those lovely witnesses of the goodness of God, which beautiful service she tremblingly hoped "might count something for the Master." We will ever miss her helpful presence in our gatherings whether for business or for pleasure. Resolved, That as by the early and sudden removal of our sister from us, we are reminded of the admonition, "Be ye also ready for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh." -- we will strive to follow her as she followed Christ; to carry on the work so dear to her heart as strength is given us, and with her to come at the end of the days bringing our sheaves with us. Resolved, That we tender our heartfelt sympathies to the bereaved family, from whose home the light, but not the love of wife, mother, daughter and sister has been removed, but to allure them to a brighter home eternal in the heavens, and assure them that in this, their deep affliction, we are afflicted. Resolved That a copy of this testimonial of regard be placed on the permanent records of the Foreign and Home Missionary Societies and a copy be given to the family of our sister as token of love from her co-laborers in the Missionary cause.

Tracy, Daniel L. -- The SHIELD this morning received a telegram from Great Falls, Mont., stating that Daniel L. Tracy, who accidentally shot himself in the Great Falls National Bank Saturday morning, died last evening, without regaining consciousness. The news was bulletined in front of the SHIELD office and soon the entire city knew of the young man's death. Daniel L. Tracy was born in this city in 1856 and was the second son of L.J. Tracy and wife, of Park Avenue West. He was a brother of F.K. and Rufus Tracy and Mrs. C.M. Roe. Mr. Tracy was married in 1886 to Miss Ella Lind, daughter of Matthew Lind, formerly of the boot and shoe business in this city. His wife and a daughter 7 years of age survive him. He was a bookkeeper at Tracy & Avery's wholesale establishment for a number of years and about six years ago he went to Great Falls, where he was engaged as bookkeeper in the Great Falls National Bank, and several years ago was promoted to cashier of that concern. Mr. Tracy has always been greatly respected by his acquaintances and those associated with him, and was known as a cautious and successful man in business. L.J. Tracy and wife, the deceased's father and mother, are in California, and a telegram was sent to them of their son's death. It is not definitely known whether the remains will be brought to this city for interment, as the relatives here will wait until word is received from L.J. Tracy, but it is thought the interment will be in this city. -- [Richland Shield & Banner: 26 May 1894, Vol. LXXVII, No. 2]

Tracy, Lathrop J. -- The death of Lathrop J. Tracy at Cambridge Springs, Pa., Friday, Sept. 24, whither he had gone a month before for the benefit of his health, calls for a further reference than could be published at the hour in the afternoon at which the intelligence was received. It was with a feeling of sincere sorrow that the news of his death was received in this city where for so many years he has been a good citizen, respected and beloved for his many admirable qualities of head and heart. That his familiar form and kindly face and voice shall be seen and heard no more in meeting and greeting with the friends of his long and busy life causes saddened hearts. Born at Painesville, in 1825, Mr. Tracy went with his parents to Vermillion and later to Huron. At he age of 18 he went to Holmesdale, Pa., where he was employed by the Delaware and Hudson Canal company and was later in the employ of the same company at Rendout, N.Y. he was married June 10, 1852, to Miss Eliza Kirtland, who, with two sons, Frederick K., of Scranton, Pa., and Rufus A. and Mrs. Mary T. Roe, of this city, survives him.

Traxler, Lyman -- Our citizens were shocked this morning to learn that Lyman Traxler, of South Main Street, an old and respected resident, had died very suddenly the latter part of the night. A SHIELD man called at the residence this forenoon and from the relatives of the deceased learned that the circumstances of the sudden and unexpected death are about as follows: Mr. Traxler worked all day yesterday from 6 o'clock in the morning until 6:30 last evening at laying a sidewalk in front of his residence. As the day was a very hot one, he complained at intervals of the oppressive heat but continued his labor without any intermission. When he came into the house about 6:30 for his supper he complained of being tired and began to prepare himself for the evening meal. While washing his hands and face he was suddenly attacked with a severe pain in the right side, which continued in violence to such an extent that he was compelled to lie down on a sofa. As the pain increased, Dr. George Mitchell, the family physician, was summoned, who administered to the suffering man. After Mr. Traxler had partially recovered, Dr. W.H. Race was also called in consultation. The two medical men remained with the patient until about 11 o'clock last night, when he revived, took some nourishment and said he felt much better. It was noticed, however, at the time that there was scarcely any pulsation of the artery of the right wrist. After prescribing for and overcoming this feature, the physicians departed for the night. During the latter part of the night, however, he was attacked again with the same symptoms from which he had been suffering earlier in the night and before assistance could be brought to his side he was dead, having died at 5:45 o'clock. A messenger had been dispatched for Dr. R.H. Reed, but before the physician could arrive at the residence Mr. Traxler was dead. The physicians in attendance express it as their opinion that, as he had the la grippe during the past spring, his death is due to having overheated himself. Mr. Traxler was born at Independence, this county, 60 years ago. In 1879 he married Miss Sarah A. Lindsey, who with two children, a boy and girl, survive him. The funeral services will be held from the residence on Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock under the auspices of Mansfield Lodge, No. 35, F. and A.M., of which he has long been a member, Rev. D.J. Meese, and Dr. H.L. Wiles officiating. -- [Richland Shield & Banner: 25 July 1891, Vol. LXXIV, No. 10]

Trimble, William C. -- William C. Trimble fatally shot himself about 3:15 o'clock this afternoon. The case is one of premeditated suicide. The victim of self-destruction is 69 years of age. For the past two years he has been rapidly failing in health and his mind has also been affected. Although very infirm Mr. Trimble has been accustomed to move about town by himself and has long been a familiar figure on the streets. At the hour mentioned Mr. Trimble was observed standing upon the lawn in front of A.J. Heinman's residence on West Third Street. He was observed to place a revolver to the right side of his temple and fire. Immediately the old gentleman fell to the ground. It is believed that only one man witnessed the tragedy. The unconscious form was borne to the residence of his son-in-law, John Cook, No. 77, West Fourth Street, where he has been making his home. The wound was temporarily bandaged before he was removed to his home. Dr. Stewart, Dr. Francis and Dr. J.B. Hall were in attendance. The physicians gave it as their opinion that Mr. Trimble was fatally injured. The ball entered the skull at an angle and probably just grazed the brain, but it was stated that internal hemorrhage would probably result in death.

Trimmer, Irwin Raymond -- Irwin Raymond Trimmer, only son of Mr. & Mrs. W.W. Trimmer, was born at Steuben, Ohio, August 19, 1905, and died at Plymouth, O., March 28th., 1915, aged 9 years, 7 months and 9 days. His last illness was of short duration, and although his suffering was intense at times, he was patient and hopeful. When Irwin was two years old, his parents moved to Plymouth, and this was the only home he knew. He early started to Sunday School, and when but four years old, was the proud possessor of a gold medal, which was given to him for being present every Sunday during the year, unless detained by sickness. He was a staunch little Lutheran, and the last two years, was a regular contributor to the church, fixing the envelope each week himself, from his own earnings. Can not we who are older learn a lesson from his faithfulness to his Sunday School and his church? Irwin was of a happy, sunny disposition, ambitious beyond his strength; and from early childhood he was never so contented as when he could help the older ones with the work. His teachers in the day school will tell you that he was faithful and painstaking, apt to learn, fun-loving, yet ambitious to do his best. His parents, his sister, his grandmother, will tell you that he was the life of the home. <<scripture omitted>> Funeral services were conducted at the home, Wednesday afternoon, by Rev. Chas. F. Mott, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church. The burial took place on the family lot in the Steuben cemetery. A special car was used to convey the body and sorrowing friends to his last resting place. A large number of relatives and friends from a distance were in attendance. -- [Plymouth Advertiser: 03 April 1915, Vol. 62, No. 19]

Tubbs, George -- George Tubbs, aged 59 years, and who for a year or more has been making his home with his sister, Mrs. Christine Parker, on Plymouth Street, becoming despondent over long continued ill health, ended his earthly career some time between the hours of 1 and 2 o'clock, Sunday morning, at the Parker home, by shooting himself, twice with a 32-calibre revolver. The first shot entered his breast about an inch below the heart and passed out through the back. He then placed the revolver underneath his chin, the bullet passing upward into the brain, completing the deadly work. There was no one in the house at the time of the tragedy other than Mrs. Parker, and being slightly deaf and separated somewhat from the room occupied by her brother, she did not hear the revolver shots, and was not aware of what had taken place until in the morning, when she went to her brother's room to call him to breakfast. Knocking at the door and getting no response, and believing him to be asleep, she opened the door when the true situation revealed itself. Neighbors in the vicinity of the Parker home heard two shots fired about the hours above mentioned, about five minutes intervening between the shots, but gave no particular attention, and it is more than likely these were the two that ended Tubbs' life. He had been a great sufferer for a year or more and knowing there was no possibility of ever becoming better, and of late his condition becoming worse, was the cause that led up to his rash act. -- [Plymouth Advertiser: 24 July 1915, Vol. 62, No. 35]

He is survived by three brothers and three sisters. Funeral services were held from the Parker home Wednesday forenoon at 9:30, conducted by Rev. Chas. F. Mott, burial being made in Greenlawn Cemetery. -- [Plymouth Advertiser: 24 July 1915, Vol. 62, No. 35]

Tubbs, Henry -- Plymouth, Sept. 21 -- The people of our quiet little town were greatly shocked this morning when it became known that Mr. Henry Tubbs was dead. Mr. Tubbs left his home last evening shortly after six o'clock for Mr. Ewing's orchard to pick apples. not being home by ten o'clock, his family became alarmed at his absence, and Jas and Frank Tubbs went to look for him. They proceeded at once to the orchard where he went, and were horrified to find their father cold in death. The ladder from which he was picking was only about twelve feet long, and his fall was probably from eight to twelve feet. Mr. Ewing was called and Mr. Tubbs was carried home where but a few hours before he left in excellent health. In the examination of Dr. Sykes it was found the third cervical vertebra had been fractured causing instant death. When found his head was under the first round, and his body straightened. He probably struck on the back of his head breaking his neck. Mr. Tubbs was sixty-five years old and still enjoyed very good health. Mr. Tubbs came here twenty-seven years ago and has worked at carpentering since and at which he has gained an enviable reputation. The funeral will be hl at the residence Thursday afternoon.

Tucker, Aurelius -- Pleasant Valley. Died at his home near Lucas, Friday, July 9, Aurelius Tucker, aged 69 years, 4 months and 26 days.

He was united in marriage with Isabella Alexander, April 5, 1849. His wife died March 16, 1894. They had five daughters, three of whom died in infancy and two survive them. Mrs. J.M. Ohler, who resides on the home farm and with whom the father made his home after his wife's death, and Mrs. E.L. Skeggs, of Green Springs. During his life he had enjoyed almost perfect health and although an old man his death was a surprise to all who knew him. For a few weeks before his death he was indisposed, but was only confined to his bed four days. His death was easy and tranquil as was his life; of genial, kind disposition he was always and to all, and having in early life acquired a complete mastery of his naturally quick temper he had gained a sweetness of disposition and a simplicity of manner than won friends wherever he went. He was especially kind to the poor and the homeless and friendless and his hospitale [sic.] home was never closed to one wanting home, shelter or food, while many otherwise without homes can recall years of home privilege under his roof. Liberal to every religious and charitable enterprise, he was a devoted member of the Pleasant Valley Lutheran church near his home. A life, noble with the nobility of true manhood is gone out. Of such is the kingdom of Heaven. His beloved young pastor, the Rev. Cramer, conducted the funeral services July 11, and preached from Genesis 25:8. [Semi-Weekly News: 23 July 1897, Vol. 13, No. 59]

Twitchell, Albert J. -- Albert J. Twitchell, one of Mansfield's most prominent attorneys, senior member of the law firm of Twitchell & Hartman, died very suddenly Saturday evening at 5:30 o'clock at his residence, 499 Park Avenue West. The people of Mansfield who knew him as a strong, hearty man, who seemed the picture of health, could scarcely believe the sad news of his unexpected death. For a couple of weeks Mr. Twitchell had been confined to his home with a touch of malarial or typhoid fever. He was getting better and had expected to be able to be out again in a few days. When his sister, Miss Myra Twitchell, came to his room to see him Saturday evening he told her how much better he was feeling and that he believed he could eat a good hearty supper. He told her what he wished and she started to leave the room. Before she reached the door she heard him gasp and on going back to the bed found him dying. Dr. Ecki, the attending physician, was sent for and everything possible was done for Mr. Twitchell, but he passed away within fifteen minutes after the attack. Death was due to embolism, a blood clot on the brain. Mrs. Twitchell with Miss Rae Twitchell, the daughter, and Carroll, the youngest son, has been spending the winter in Mexico, and a message was sent to them Saturday evening conveying the sad news of the death of husband and father. Mrs. Twitchell was reached at Guadalajaia [sic.], which is about 300 miles from the City of Mexico. A message was received Sunday to the effect that they had started at 10:15 a.m. for home. The funeral arrangements will not be completed until after they reach home, which will probably be Thursday, or if they have to come by way of the City of Mexico, it will probably be Friday before they get here. Two of the sons, Charles and Albert, have been attending the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor and they were summoned home Saturday night. Albert J. Twitchell was born in Portage County, Ohio, Dec. 31, 1848. He graduated from the Ohio Wesleyan University at Delaware in the class of 1872, after which he attended the law department of Harvard University. He came to Mansfield and read law with Judge Moses R. Dickey and in the fall of 1874 he was admitted to the bar, entering upon the practice of his profession in company with A.M. Burns with whom he continued until July, 1877, when he opened an office for himself. For the past eight years he and Rudolph W. Hartman have been in partnership.
