"The death of Gardner H. Hollis occurred at his home on Pioneer street, Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, aged sixty-eight years. Mr. Hollis' death, which resulted from heart failure came unexpectedly as it was considered that he had been improving in the recent past. He was born at Orwell, Oswego county, September 15th, 1841, and served his country well in the Civil War. A member of L. C. Turner Post G. A. R., he will be missed by his former comrades as well as by his other friends in Cooperstown. He is survived by his wife, three sons, Fred of Gloversville, Laverne, of Cooperstown and William of Bainbridge, also one daughter, Miss Minnie Hollis of Cooperstown; three brothers, Monroe of Pulaski, Delano of Woodville, and Robert who resides in Colorado, and one sister, Mrs. Mary Ackley, of Belleville, N. Y. The funeral took place from his late residence, Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. I. J. Harris, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, officiating. Interment in Lakewood cemetery." [The Otsego Farmer (Cooperstown, NY), June 25, 1909, p. 7]
