Death of George Evans
Major Glowacki received a telegram this morning announcing the death at his residence in Albany last night of his brother-in-law, Mr. George Evans. The deceased was the son of the late Hon. David E. Evans of Batavia and was born in this town. His wife was a daughter of the late Hon. Herman J. Redfield. Mr. Evans was a prominent citizen of Albany. He had been in ill health for several years. His age was about fifty-four years. The only survivor of David E. Evans' family is Prof. Ellicott Evans of Ann Arbor, Mich.

The Late George Evans.
From the New York Star.
On Saturday in the chapel of All Saints' cathedral, Albany, took place the funeral of George Evans, a citizen, who was widely known and greatly beloved. His father, David E. Evans of Batavia, was one of the pioneers of Western New York, and, in the Holland Land Company, he assisted in the settlement and civilization of that region. Through his mother, a Miss Brickerhoff of Albany, Mr. Evans stood in close relationship to a large number of refined and distinguished men and women. The characteristics which make the death of this gentleman a proper subject for public comment, might not have been disclosed had it not been for the peculiar conditions which surrounded his later years. About two years ago he became subjected to frequent attacks of disease, so severe and painful as to seem beyond the strength of mortal endurance. But the flames that tortured him only burned the dross away, and in the very midst of the fiery furnace there grew the beautiful flower of a perfect character. He met every assault with a patience, a courage and a resignation which raised him far above the reach of human endeavor. Suffering and sickness did not impair, but perfected his and earnest manhood. There were many who saw in this assured though toilsome progress, a proof seldom so clearly shown, that the universal belief in another life rests upon a foundation more substantial than the hopes of man. For if disease can do much why not death complete the work?
