*Obituary
The Malone Farmer
Malone, Franklin Co., NY
August 30, 1911
Henry O Taylor, of Muskegee, Oklahoma, a brother of W D Taylor of North Bangor, and whose death was recently announced, did not meet with an accident as was first supposed because he had long been a railroad conductor, but, like Fred Shepard, of Lawrenceville, died following an operation for a severe case of gall stones. He was in the service of the Midland Valley R R, and was such a favorite with the officials and employees that he was often called upon to adjust difficulties between the company and workmen, in which he was always successful. When he was attacked with his serious illness which was persistent and was finally thought to have developed into appendicitis he received every attention from the company by which he was employed and was taken to the company's hospital at Ft Smith, Arkansas. There it was found that his trouble was gall stones. He was successfully operated upon and seemed in a fair way to recover, but there came a relapse two days after the operation and the next day he died. He leaves a son who at 18 is a conductor on the same road and a married daughter at Muskogee, who has the care of his two younger children, aged eleven and four years. His parents, Mr and Mrs E A Taylor, formerly of North Bangor, also survive, together with F M Taylor, a brother, of Newton, Iowa, and Mrs W E Carpenter, a sister. The remains were interred at Newton. Deceased was a member of the national Brotherhood of Railroad Conductors and of the B P O E. He was 45 years of age.
