Oüver Lester Warner, a very highly respected Citizen of Pittsfield, departed this life. His widow and four children survive him. He had always been a very active man through his whole life, but of late had been slowly declining in strength, which resulted in heart trouble. He was bron in Phelps, Ontario county, N. Y., and was seventy-seven years of age. Mr. and Mrs. Warner came to this state fifty-four years ago and settled in the township of Pittsfield, where he has carried on the profession of farming. Their golden wedding was celebrated seven years ago. Mr. Warner leaves a wide circle of friends to mourn his loss.
