Of him the Journal says: Mr. Williams was at one time one of the editors and proprietors of the Otsego Republican, which he left in 1842, and for about 45 years he was employed in the Journal office—ever faithful in the discharge of his duties. He was a man of more than ordinary intelligence and general information. In politics he was first a Whig and then a Republican, a firm believer in the doctrines and principles of those parties. He was a Universalist in his religious belief, and a faithful and liberal member of that church in Cooperstown. As a citizen he commanded the confidence and respect of all who knew him. As a relative, friend and neighbor he will be held in rememberance [sic] for his good social qualities, a hospitality that was beyond his means, and his sterling integrity as a man.
The funeral will take place at the house, at 3 o'clock P.M. on Friday.
