| 18944 | Niagara Gazette - 9/29/1880 Mrs. Ellen Whitney Force, widow of the lite Maj. Geo. B. Force, of Plalnwell, Mich., and sister of Mr, John Whitney, of this town, died, a t the .residence of her brother on the 23d instant. We copy tho following obituary sketch from the columns of the Rochester .Union of Sat- urday. Ellen Whitney Force has' passed the portal many call death. She was born March 2d,, 1835, .at.Niagara Falls,-, and died at that place on the 34d of th epre- ent month: The early years of her married life were-spent in Rochester, but for several years past she has resided at Plainwell, Michigan. She leaves an only son Charles. Force, of- Plainwell, and an adopted daughter,- Alice Force, She was the widow of the late Major George B. Force, of this city, who was killed while in command of his regiment, 108th..New. York, at the battle of Antietam in 1862. He.was the brother of Maj. I. F. Force, of Rochester, who was then also major of the 140th' New York Regiment. It became the sad.duty of the writer of this to convoy to Mrs. Force,the terrible news of that event. At the time she was visiting friends, in Ontario'county 'and upon meeting her-shethen having with her dear fatherless boy, aged but a few months—her quick preception anticipated what I would tell, and the deathly pallid face, her suppressed breath, and quivering lips, forbade me to speak the word.- And after due preparation she returned-with me in a carriage to Can- andaigua, holding in her arms her babe. Very few words .were spokon, by either person during that ride of about fourteen miles.': When t h e silence was at length broken by her asking with suppressed breath in a whisper, was he killed in- stantly, I could not answer. •.But oh the anguish of that hour. Since then she has shown a bouyant and cheerful. spirit to the world, but that anguish ceased only with the last breath. the love she bore her noble husband was always uppermost. Yet her duty to others and especially to her son, who is not grown to manhood - with attributes to fill a mother's heart with joy- pre- sented other attractions for life, causing the cheerful smile an dkind word for all. Whilst the underlying tension upon the silver cord of life produced that fell dis- ease consumption, and like the ripening leaves; unseared by frost in this early Autumn, she has fallen asleepl her spirit has returned to God who gave it. A more pure, lovely and gentle spirit has not inhavited mortal frame. Her dear son and her adopted daughter (her de- ceased brother's child) will mourn for her whose love.can never be replaced, and her friends here, numerous and true, will listen silently for that'voice, whispering front the other slde-^No, he was not "killed instantly," he still lives.' I have met him in heaven. | WHITNEY, Ellen (I91748)
