Henry David Lorin, one of the best known and most esteemed residents of Lorena, died at his home there this morning at 8 o'clock, after a period of about a year of ill health. For the past six weeks his condition had been serious. Heart trouble and hardening of the arteries caused death, and for the last few weeks he had been a severe sufferer, all of which, however, he bore with patience and resignation. Mr. Lorin was born, lived and died on the old Lorin homestead. He was 54 years old and was the son of the late Hiram B. Lorin and Cornelia Bork. He was a butcher by occupation and also conducted a meat business about Lorena. He was a man of many fine qualities and had a wide circle of friends. He was a member of Baron Steuben Lodge, F. & A. M., and was at one time tax collector in the fourth ward of Rome. On Nov. 17, 1900, Mr. Lorin married Miss Anna F. Snyder of this city, who survives with an adopted daughter, Evelyn Jennie, and one sister, Mrs. E. E. Miles, 522 Floyd Avenue.

Hiram Bailey Lorin, a well known and highly respected resident of Lorena, died at 9 o'clock on Tuesday forenoon at the age of 75. Mr. Lorin was born in Columbia county, but came to Rome sixty-six years ago and during all his life here has lived upon the farm about six miles from the city, where his death occurred. He served two terms as assessor in the fourth ward, which includes Lorena. About eight years ago Mr. Lorin was injured in a runaway accident and since that time has been a great sufferer, but his patience and fortitude never failed him. No word of complaint ever escaped his lips. The immediate cause of death was a complication of diseases. A life of strict integrity and scrupulous regard for the rights and feelings of others had created a kindly disposition and unselfish character which endeared him to all with whom he came in contact. The deceased is survived by two children, Mrs. E. E. Miles of Rome and Henry D. Lorin, who lives on the homestead, three sisters, Mrs. P. Smith of Albany, Mrs. Harriet E. West and Mrs. Lewis Gaylord of Rome, and one brother, John S. Lorin, of Williamstown.
