Obituary - unknown newspaper source, January 1891; Fort Erie - Ridgeway Musuem
On Sunday afternoon about four o'clock as Mr. Irvin Teal and Ezra F. Moore were returnining from Black Creek in a covered carriage, they were run into by a Michigan Control Railway engine and van on the crossing at Stevensville. The engine struck the buggy back of the hub of the hind wheel, completely demolishing the back part of the buggy. Neither of the gentleman noticed the approaching engine until it was too late to avert the collision. Mr. Teal says there was no bell or whistle sounded. The horse apparently saw the danger and making a forward spring became disengaged from the rig and dragged Mr. Teal (who was driving) with him, which was the cause of Mr. Teal's miraculous escape. Poor Ezra took the full force of the blow and was pitched up about thirty feet from the crossing, terribly mangled but still conscious. He was taken to Stevensville and Drs. Brewster, Douglas and Collver were soon on hand and everything that medical skill could do was done for the sufferer, but all to no avail. He lingered in terrible agony untill about half past eight, when death ended his sufferings. The immediate cause of death was the fractured of the skull, in addition to which one leg and arm were broken in several places, besides other injuries. Mr. Teal was badly bruised but no bones broken and he was able to be about and receive the congradulations of friends on his escape. He takes the fate of Mr. Moore very much to heart, and he says he would willingly have taken the broken limbs if on;y Ezra's life had been spared. Ezra F. Moore, the victim, was one of our most respected citizens, and is mourned by a host of friends. He was in his 54th year. The greater part of his life having been spent in the immediate vicinity. He was a carriage maker by trade, and for the past eighteen or twenty years has been in the employ of Mr. Irvin Teal. He leaves a widow and three sons and two daughters, Mrs. A. J. Hanna and Mrs. Fred. Ellsworth; John, the eldest son, has a situation in New York city; Charlie and Willie, ages respectively about 17 and 10, comprise the family at home. We are pleased to note that notwithstanding the loss of a kind husband and father, the family are not left without a substantial proof of his feorthought for their comfort, he having held a certificate in the A.O.U.W. for $2000, and also one in the Home Circle for $3000.
The funeral took place from his late residence on Wednesday afternoon, 28th, and was one of the most largely attended ever held in the village, the Methodist church being packed, besides numbers who did not enter the church. The sermon was preached by Rev. C. Stringfellow. The funeral was in charge of the brethren of International Lodge, I.O.O.F., who were in attendance in a large body. The members of Ridgeway Lodge, A.O.U.W., also joined the procession. Interment took place in the village cemetery. The impressive burial service of the Oddfellows ritual was rendered at the grave. Among the floral tributes were two worthy of special mention - a pillow offered by the brethren of Ridgeway Lodge, A.O.U.W., and a wreath by the members of the Home Circle.
