At his home in Greene Settlement, near Adams Centre, N. Y., Jan. 9, 1907, Mr. Eugene D. Greene, in the fifty-seventh year of his age.
Brother Greene was born upon the farm where he died, and had spent his entire life in the immediate vicinity. April 23, 1870, he was baptized into the fellowship of the Seventh-day Baptist church at Adams Centre, and remained a faithful member of the church till his earthly journey was finished. On Nov. 28, 1870, on the birthday of his bride, he was united in marriage with Miss Emogene Langworthy, who was also baptized on the same day as himself. This union resulted in the birth of two sons, De Chois and Paul, and two daughters, Mrs. Clayton Langworthy and Mrs. Clarke Stoodley, all of whom were present at the funeral.
As he neared the better shore, he said to his weeping companion, "I am going home - home, home," showing his faith in his Savior and the longings of his wearied spirit. The funeral was held at his late home and was attended by a large number of relatives and neighbors. Besides his four children, he leaves to mourn their loss, his devoted wife, a brother, two sisters and a wide circle of immediate relatives. The funeral was conducted by his pastor; sermon from John 11: 23.
