"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 43, No 19, p 8, May 12, 1887.
In Little Genesee, N. Y., Sabbath, April 30, 1887, after a long and severe illness, Lewis J. Coon, in the 74th year of his age. Brother Coon was among the earlier settlers in Genesee, moving from Madison county in 1824 or 1825. He professed faith in Christ in early life, and has been one of the strong supports of the church in this place. He expressed great confidence in the Saviour during his sickness, and departed with a firm hope in eternal life. He leaves a companion, with whom he passed the fiftieth mile stone of married life, in September last, and other relatives, to mourn their loss, but not as those without hope. Thus another of the landmarks is removed, like the trees of the forest they fall before the destroyer. G. W. B.
