Obituary:
Henry's obituary entitled "Death of H. H. LaRue" states:
Early in the evening, H.H. LaRue, who owned an old flat bottom boat, began the work of getting his stock on the bottom out of danger. He was assisted in the work from time to time by T.O. Bell, superintendent of water works, who had gone to the pump station and remained there trying to fill the big tank until the advance of the water made further effort useless. He was then taken off in the boat by Mr. LaRue and the two got all the stock in and started for home. Evidently Mr. LaRue concluded afterwards that he could do some good at the Fair grounds, as he was shortly afterward assisting the unfortunates there. Some of these had taken refuge in the grand stand and were really in a dangerous plight, as the water was ten feet deep in front of them and no one could tell whether or not the structure would withstand the force of the flood. It was after 1 o’clock when this work was finished and Mr. LaRue decided to start for home. He called for some one to help him and Millard Jackson, a young man living east of town, volunteered. Young Jackson says the trip was made without incident until they reached the vicinity of the pump station. Jackson was rowing and LaRue was holding a lantern and directing the course of the boat. The latter then said, "I know where we are now. Look out for the electric wire," referring to the lines running to the pump station. The water was high enough to take them close to it. He had scarcely uttered the words when the boat carried them against the wire. LaRue threw up his hand and the wire touched his hand, burning the flesh to the bone. Death must have been instantaneous. He fell overboard and Jackson made an unsuccessful effort to catch him. Jackson kept shouting to cut the wires and word was finally sent to the electric plant and the lights shut off. The young man then made his way to shore. By daylight the work of recovering the body was begun and it was after 11 o’clock when Wilt Devore, one of a party on a raft constructed for the purpose, found it. It was taken to Boham’s undertaking establishment.

Sad Death of H. H. LaRue

Henry Howitt LaRue, eldest son of Franklin and Amelia (Chapin) LaRue, was born in Stockbridge, Michigan, July 11, 1852, and passed from this life at the age of 51 years, 1 month, and 16 days on Thursday morning, August 27, at about 2 o’clock.
Mr. LaRue was educated in the public schools of Lansing, Michigan, and the Wesleyan University at Bloomington, Ill., having removed with his parents to McLean county, Illinois in 1864. In February of 1873 he with his father removed from Illinois to Mercer township in this county for the purpose of improving tracts of land previously purchased by them.
After farming summers and teaching school winters for several years, he decided to sell his land and go into the lumber business. Realizing the importance of a thorough knowledge of the business in which he had decided to embark he entered the employ of Mr. Ralph Newcomb, and soon rose to be foreman of the yard and when the opportunity came to purchase the Beymer yard he did so and launched out into business for himself, remaining at the same stand for about twenty years. The great Corning fire swept away everything in his lumber yard, but with characteristic courage and energy he began rebuilding as soon as the smouldering embers were distinguished.
He was married to Miss Emeline L. Jennings of McLean county, Illinois in January 1883. To this union were born three children, two of which, Ida A. and Albertus Franklin, together with the mother survive him. The other child Roy Joseph died in infancy. He also leaves a father, a brother, Frank, and two sisters, Mrs. Fred Kennon and Miss Myra LaRue, and a host of other relatives. His mother and four sisters having preceded him to the other side.
He was a faithful, consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church, serving the local church in an official capacity for many years. He also served on the city council for several years, doing excellent work in the best interests of the community. Strong in his convictions of right and wrong, courageous in a marked degree, a man of broad education and information, of high ideals and strictest integrity of character. This community as well as his immediate family has met with an inreparrable loss in his untimely end.
The funeral will be held from the M. E. church at 10 o’clock Sunday morning. Interment in Walnut Grove cemetery.

Died

Henry Howitt LaRue, an account of whose tragic death is given elsewhere in this paper, was born at Stockbridge, Mich., July 11, 1852. He was the eldest son of Franklin and Amelia (Chapin) LaRue. His parents removed in 1864 to McLean county, Ill., and he received his education at Weslyan University at Bloomington. In February, 1873, he came with his father to this county for the purpose of improving tracts of land in Mercer township which they had purchased. Several years later he decided to go into the lumber business and entered the employ of Ralph Newcomb. Later he bought the Beymer lumber business yard and for twenty years had been in business at the same location in Corning. His entire yard was destroyed by the big fire of 1896, but he immediately began the work of rebuilding and was soon in business again. He was married January, 1883, in McLean county, Ill., to Miss Emeline L. Jennings and three children were born to them. Ida C. and Albertus Franklin are still living with their mother, Roy Joseph having died in infancy. His father, his brother Frank and two sisters, Mrs. Fred Kennon and Miss Myra LaRue, also survive him.
Mr. LaRue was one of the most useful citizens Corning has ever had. Broadly charitable, always ready to assist in public improvement or private charity, a hard worker for those in whom he interested himself as well as in his own business, he was a man of more than ordinary helpfulness and usefulness. Few men there are who would respond more willingly to appeals of a reasonable nature and fewer still who would bring the energy and the ability to the work after the first response. The work he was engaged in the night he lost his life is only an instance of his disposition to work and work hard for the relief of those in distress and this same disposition was displayed many times during the years of his residence here. He was a member of the city council several years and rendered valuable service in that capacity. The community has lost one of its most valuable members, a man of strong and courageous convictions, of wide information and high character, of wide information and high character, and the terrible manner of his death only adds to the general grief.
The funeral was held Sunday morning from the Methodist church of which the deceased had long been a faithful member. A very brief service was previously held at the house. The services were conducted by Rev. W. H. Shipman assisted by Rev. J. A. Lovejoy at the home, by Rev. C. A. Haskett, who read the scripture lessons at the church, and Rev. M. V. Higbee, who led in prayer. The singing was conducted by a male quartette, consisting of Pierce Metz, J. E. Carmichael, Walter Newcomb and A. Ray Maxwell. The sermon was preached by the pastor, Rev. W. H. Shipman, from the text, "Be ye therefore also ready for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh," to a congregation that filled every part of the church including the aisles and vestibule, and a very large number were unable to get into the church. The pall bearers were Ralph Newcomb, A. B. Turner, I. T. Homan, John Gillet, E. H. Sheppard and F. M. Davis. After the impressive service in the church, the casket was interred in the Walnut Grove cemetery.

Obituary:
Obituary entitled Death of Franklin LaRue states:

On Monday September 30, about 12:30 p.m. there passed to his reward one of the best known and most highly respected citizens of Adams county, Franklin LaRue, the cause of his death being largely old age. For a few days he had been suffering from a cold but his condition was not considered critical by his family. He was conscious to the last. The machinery of the body had done its full work and he peacefully passed away.
The subject of this sketch was born near Bath, Steuben County, N.Y., December 28, 1818, and at the time of his death was aged 93 years, 9 months, and 2 days. The funeral was held from the home in the northwest part of the city on October 2 at 10:30 a.m. conducted by Rev. Norman McLeod of the Presbyterian church. Internment in Walnut Grove cemetery along side of his faithful wife who was buried there January 6, 1901.
In his young years he attended Amherst college and studied civil engineering at Van Rensaeller institute, Troy, N.Y.. He was the youngest of a family of twelve children. When a young man he came west and located in Michigan and was engaged in surveying. Here he was married to Miss Amelia Chapin at Mason, Mich., Sept. 25, 1848. To this union were born eight children, six daughters and two sons, four of the daughters died at Lansing, Mich., for many years the family home, in their infancy. The two sons, H. H. and F. L. died and are buried in Corning. The living are Mrs. F. A. Kennon of Corning and Miss Myra LaRue who has made her home with her father.
The family came to Adams county in 1874 and settled in Mercer township. Soon after coming here Mr. LaRue was elected county surveyor and held the office for a number of years. He was an exceptionally good surveyor and much of the work done in this county was by him. In politics Mr. LaRue was a democrat and was a candidate for the state senate in Michigan on the ticket by James Buchanan in 1856. His first vote for president was cast in 1840 and in the present campaign he took a deep interest and from the start was an ardent admirer of Wilson and frequently remarked that he hoped he would live to cast a big vote for the New Jersey governor.
For thirty years he had lived in the home in which his death occurred in Corning, an honored and upright citizen whom it was a pleasure to meet and discuss the topics of the day and the events of many years ago. Until a few years ago he was a great reader and since he could not read on account of failing eyesight he had his daughter and others read to him and he was thoroughly posted on the topics of the day.

Obituary of Amelia Chapin LaRue

The community was saddened Saturday by news of the death of Mrs. Franklyn LaRue, which occurered the night previous. She had been sick less than a week, having been confined to her bed only since the Sabbath before, and in the morning she had seemed to be in her usual health. Her death resulted from fever of the lungs with the complication of heart trouble. The funeral was held at the home Sabbath afternoon at 3 o'clock, the services being conducted by Rev. M.V. Higbee assisted by Revs. T.D. Ewing and J.A. Lovejoy. The remains were laid to rest in Walnut Grove cemetery. Amelia Chapin was born in New York and was seventy-five years of age. Hers had been a life of activity of mind and body and even down to the last days she was interested in all that pertained to the welfare of those about her. She was the mother of eight children, four of whom died in childhood. Those surviving her are H.H. and F.L. LaRue and Mrs. Fred Kennon of this city and Miss Myra LaRue of Omaha. Twenty-eight years of family life have been spent in and near Corning. Mrs. LaRue was a member of the Presbyterian church and had ever taken an earnest interest in its progress. She was a woman of serene and cordial temperment and in all the relations of life did more than her full duty. To her aged companian who has lost the helpmate of a life time and to the sons and daughters who have lost a loving mother the entire community tenders its sympathy.




Obituary of Amelia Chapin LaRue

The sudden and sad news passed around from person to person at an early hour on Saturday morning that Mrs. LaRue, of north Corning, had died during the night of Friday, January 4th 1901. Mother LaRue, as her friends loved to call her, was a kind neighbor, a loyal wife and a loving mother. Columns of type could not tell more in expressing her daily life. Her immediate family consisted of H.H. LaRue, the lumber merchant; Frank L. LaRue, president of the Corning Savings bank; Mrs. Fred Kennon, and Miss Myra LaRue as her children and her honored husband. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon with a large attendance. The GAZETTE tenders its heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family. Her children have met with the greatest loss that can ever befall them. While it is true they have reached an age of manhood and womanhood, they will find, as others have, that no one can take the place in their hearts and homes of a mother who has gone to the other shore.

Birth:
"Albertus Larrowe (LaRue) was probably of Huguenot descent. He was born in New Jersey within sound of the guns of the battle of Trenton. In 1795 he started on foot for Canada, but when he arrived in Bath, NY, he was too lame to go farther. He subseqently purchased land in the area of Wheeler, NY. He raised a family of distinction, some of whom lived in nearby Cohocton and Hammondsport. In spite of increasing farm activities, he found time to serve as supervisor of the town of Wheeler and as Master of the Masonic Lodge in Cohocton.
Descendants spell the name both ways LaRue and Larrowe."

Note:General George Washington’s army crossed the icy Delaware on Christmas Day 1776 and, over the course of the next 10 days, won two crucial battles of the American Revolution. In the Battle of Trenton (December 26), Washington defeated a formidable garrison of Hessian mercenaries before withdrawing. A week later he returned to Trenton to lure British forces south, then executed a daring night march to capture Princeton on January 3. The victories reasserted American control of much of New Jersey and greatly improved the morale and unity of the colonial army and militias.
