Died:
Ogdensburg Journal - Monday July 22, 1912
Morristown, July 22 - Carroll E. Colton, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Colton, died at his home in the English Settlement near Morristown Tuesday morning, July 16. Carroll Erwin Colton was born in Morristown February 25, 1896. When between two and three years old he was suddenly and without any apparent cause stricken with that dread disease, spinal meningitis and for eight weeks his life hung in the balance. Gradually however his health returned and although never physically strong, he was given a good degree of health. The brain that in that terrible disease so often becomes affected, in his case remained unclouded and as the years passed he developed into an exceptionally keen thinker. Naturally of a cheerful happy disposition, he enjoyed life in his own quiet way. A year or two ago however, his strength began to diminish somewhat and he was forced to face the fact that the ball games and other sports so dear to every boy's heart, were denied him. His strong character and indomitable courage made him keep this knowledge greatly to himself and it was not until of late that his friends realized how much the loss of these things must have meant to him. He never wished to be a subject of pity, but bravely bore the sufferings that must have been his. He seldom alluded to his condition and when friends inquired how he was, always, even to the last answered cheerfully. He attended the high school in Morristown village the past four years, passed his examinations and on June 24th attended the closing exercises of the school. This was the last time he attended anything away from his home, his courage and his determination having kept him up until his school duties were ended. After having been examined by his physician, he asked his mother to tell him just what the doctor's opinion was, adding, 'You need not mind telling me for I am not afraid to die.' Upon learning the truth that his days were numbered, he assured her that God knew best. He was satisfied. His whole thought seemed to be for others rather than himself. He seemed to feel it mattered not for him if in any way he could lighten the sorrow of those he loved. On August 27, 1907, when only eleven years old, he united with the Presbyterian church here. He had from early childhood been a member of its Sunday school. He also was a member of the Christian Endeavor Society and at the time of his death held the office of treasurer. The funeral service was held at his late home, Thursday afternoon, and was largely attended. His pastor, Rev. C. E. Ray, conducted the service.
