Obituary from findagrave.com
The soul of William Mortimer Hall, for many years a respectable resident of Oswego, passed to the home of his Maker at the home of his son, Major A.M. Hall, Washington, DC, on Thursday night.

Funeral services were held at Washington, DC Saturday afternoon. The body arrived here at noon yesterday and burial was made at Riverside cemetery in the afternoon after services in the Page Memorial chapel conducted by the Rev. W.F. Kettle. The funeral party consisted of Major and Mrs. A. M. Hall and Albert G. Hall, grandson of the deceased, of Washington, Jessie C. Hall, of New York City, Mrs. Lizzie Peck of Syracuse, Mrs. Josie Crittenden, Mrs. Lizzie Parkhurst, Oliver Ormsby and Max Saurez, all of Syracuse.

Mr. Hall was 80 years old. He was born in Lorraine, Jefferson county in 1833 and moved to Oswego with his parents when quite a young lad. He made this city his home until about 11 years ago when, after the death of wife, he went to live with his son. About that time he suffered a stroke of apoplexy. He partially recovered and was quite active up to last Christmas day, when the second stroke came, which carried him away.

Mr. Hall has always led an active life and following the Civil War was identified with a number of prominent business enterprises in this city. He was largely interested in canal transportation and at one time conducted a fleet of ten lioata. Later he took up milling and farming, but a panic in the early seventies swept away his property. He struggled courageously against reverse and for a number of years conducted the Davis livery barn and later a dairy farm in Oswego Town. He was a man of sterling worth, beloved by all who knew him. He was greatly devoted to his family, not a
member of which can recall a single unkind word that ever fell from his lips. He was an active attendant at church up to the Sunday before his death.

On January 18, 1860, he was joined in wedlock to Caroline Adams, a teacher in the Oswego public schools, at the home of Zina D Stevens. The officiating clergyman was the Rev. II. G. Ludlow, the first pastor of the Congregational church. They had three children, all of whom are living, Major A. M. Hall of Washington, Jessie C. Hall and DeLeon F. Hall, of New York. The latter was unable to attend the funeral because of a severe illness which confines him to his home.

The death of Mr. Hall breaks a chain of four generations in the Washington home, where he was very happy surrounded by his children, grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
The affection of the latter for the old man was a subject of common remark in the neighborhood where he lived. He was their constant companion and playmate and guardian.

William married Caroline Adams 18 Jan 1860. Caroline was born Abt 1833, NY. [Group Sheet]
