Mr. Noble Morris died Wednesday, September 27, 1905, at midnight after an illness of three hours, aged 88 years. Mr. Morris was a man of unusual physical strength and vigor, with intellect and faculties undimmed. He was on the street as usual Wednesday and showed no sign of illness until about 9 o'clock in the evening, when he complained of difficulty in breathing. He died in the house where he had lived for fifty-four years.
Noble Morris was born in Warsaw on Match 11, 1817, the son of Solomon and Olive Noble Morris. He was engaged in the hardware business here from 1845 until 1899, under the firm name of Hodge & Morris, Morris & Buzton, Morris & Lewis, Morris & Son, Morris & Company, under which name the business was continued until they sold out the Ballentine Hardware Company in 1899.
Mr. Morris was married on September 1st, 1842, to Miss Betsy A. Doolittle of Wethersfield, and three children were born to them, Ann Janette, who died in infancy, Edward Hebert, who survives him, and Emma Charlotte, who married Frank W. Savage and died at Lake Eustice, Fla. several years ago. Mrs. Morris died in August, 1863, and on February 22, 1865, Mr. Morris was married to Mrs. Helen Benedict, widow of George Benedict and daughter of Chauncey Doolittle of Wethersfield. She died on March 14, 1904.
Mr. Morris was one of the vestrymen of Trinity Church at its organization in 1852, and has been warden or vestryman nearly all the time since. In 1868 he was elected one of the village trustees and held that office very acceptably for ten years. He was an officer and stockholder in the Warsaw Water Works Co, a private corporation for several years, was one of the directors of the Warsaw Gas Cop. He was a staunch Democrat and with one exception had voted for more presidents than any other man in Warsaw. Besides his son, Mrs. Morris leaves one sister, Miss Emeline Morris of this village.
The funeral was held from his late home on Brooklyn street at three o'clock on Sunday afternoon, Rev. H. L. Stoddard officiating."
