Theodore T. Amory, one of the contractors who built the new Dutchess County Railroad, died at the Nelson House early Thursday morning. He caught a severe cold a week ago to-day, which rapidly developed into pneumonia, which was the cause of his death. He was well known in Pennsylvania, especially at Scranton and vicinity, where he was a contractor. He formerly lived at Binghamton also. He came here about seven years ago and did a great deal of work on the Central New England and Western Railroad. Not long ago he and W. H. Snyder, of Eldorado Stock Farm, bought Carman stables on Catbarine Street and were doing a good and increasing business. At the Nelson House where he boarded from the time he came here until he died, he and his estimable wife were highly respected and esteemed for their genial dispositions and their company was always sought for. Mr. Amory also commanded the respect of all of his male acquaintances. He was a great lover of fine horses, and was frequently selected to act in judgment at the meetings of the Stat Breeders; Association. He was modest and retiring among strangers, … (can’t read) He leaves two brothers, two sisters and a widow, all of whom have the entire sympathy of the community in their sad and sudden bereavement. Thursday evening a service of prayer was held and this morning the remains will be taken to Binghamton for interment.
