ObitAndrew Tully's obituary was published in the Rochester Sentinel on 11 October 1929:

(By Albert W. BITTERS)
It rarely falls to the lot of the average individual to pen an account of a biographical nature for a citizen, well known and identified with the community for so many years that the subject thereof is considered as a pioneer, and the task is assumed with hesitancy lest inaccuracy occur by lack of full knowledge of the facts. The following data will be anent the life history of Andrew Tully BITTERS, familiarly known to the populace as “Uncle Tully,” whose demise occurred at his late home, 329 W. Ninth street, this city, Friday, October 11, 1929, aged 88 years, 8 months, 25 days. The subject of this sketch was the youngest child of a large family of brothers and sisters, born to John and Sarah A. BITTERS. The deceased is native of Northampton county, Pennsylvania, date of birth, January 16, 1841. He was the last surviving member of his family, exceeding all in point of longevity, his brothers, Lemuel N. [BITTERS], William [BITTERS], John D. [BITTERS] and Major BITTERS, and sisters Catharine MASTELLER and Rebecca DOANE being best remembered in Fulton county. Uncle Tully accompanied his parents to Bloomsburg, Columbia county, Pennsylvania, in 1842, and in 1856, with his parents and brother William and family, emigrated to Akron, Indiana, where as a boy, his brother William taught him the trade of a brick mason, and with his trowel he has helped to erect some of the first brick buildings in Rochester, the Kroger store building [Shields building], 1868, Masonic building and Odd Fellows building being among the first, as well as the residence where he passed away, built in 1872. Working at his trade until the beginning of the Civil War, he enlisted as a private in Co. D, 87th Ind. Inft., but his country needed additional strength in the Marine Service, hence joined that branch, serving at St. Louis and Vicksburg and up and down the Mississippi river until the close of the war, when he received honorable discharge. On his return to civil live, at the village of Akron, he and a close friend, the late William CUTSHALL, printed a small news sheet, which experience led to his final ownership of the Rochester Sentinel, after leaders of the Democratic party in this county prevailed on him to undertake that enterprise, purchasing the Sentinel from McDonald & Co. in 1872. For long years Mr. Bitters wielded the editorial pen for the welfare of his party, his home city and the common good. Deceased is numbered among the last of the old-school type of editors and publishers, whose policy was to “make the penalty fit the crime” in an attack against wrong, sparing not the rod of severe criticism wherever deserved, and the opposite extreme of sympathy for the distressed or the weak. A monument to his memory, worthy of a man, is comprised in the files of the old Sentinel in the office of the County Recorder. After the election of President Grover Cleveland, the deceased was appointed Postmaster of Rochester. Not being able to serve in dual capacity, the Sentinel was sold to Henry A. BARNHART, who carried on with pheonmenal success. For several years Mr. Bitters was owner of the City Book Store, in which business his friendships expanded far and wide. He was once identified with a picture-frame molding industry in Rochester, and was once the receiver of the old defunct Rochester shoe factory, and then employedf nearly two hundred persons. Tully Bitters was a self-made man, gaining knowledge by dint of abrasion with the rough spots, rather than the polish of education in colleges or great institutions of training. He was a lover of children, but fate never blessed him as a parent, though he has been father to those in need of parental love. Miss Retha EISENHOUR, now employed in the Government printing office at Washington, was taken into his home in childhood and tenderly cared for until mature years. Others have known the bounty of his love and care, whose experience is not so well known to the writer. In early life he felt the need of a home to divide with another, and won the heart and hand of Sarah J. St.CLAIR, of Montgomery county, Ohio, then residing near his mother’s home and they were married in 1867. The couple led a happy life until misfortune took the good wife to the home beyond, date not here known. On April 28, 1891, he again embarked on the sea of matrimony, accepting the love of Ellen CHATTEN, who survives him in deep sorrow and regret. He was a husband true to the measure of a man, a prominent citizen, a stalwart soldier and a conscientious partisan Democrat, ever striving to live true to precept and principle. He was once a member of the McClung Post No. 95, G.A.R., and was Commander of the Post for one or two terms, but owing to infirmity and circumstances withdrew from affiliation some years ago. He was a member of the Rochester Lodge No. 79, F. & A. M., taking his Entered Apprentice degree April 5, 1865; Fellowcraft degree June 13, 1865, and Master Mason’s degree July 13 1865 -- over 64 years. He served as Master five different terms, and was secretary for a long period. March 29, 1887, when the Rochester Chapter No. 70, Order Eastern Star, was instituted, Mr. Bitters was appointed and installed by Grand Patron George C. DORLAND, as the first Worthy Patron and a charter member of the Rochester chapter O. E. S. In these Masonic bodies he has ever lived by the gauge, level and plumb, squaring his actions by the tools of the craft as laid down by ancient law. In his daily life he was true to Deity, just to his country and lived [at] peace with his fellows which bespeaks his future haven of love in that home not made with hands. . . . . Funeral services will be conducted at the residence, 329 West Ninth Street, Sunday afternoon, 2:30 o’clock, under the auspices of Rochester Lodge No. 79, F. & A. M., Rev. D. S. PERRY officiating.7 
Death*He died on 11 October 1929 at Rochester, Fulton, Indiana, at age 88.7

ObitEliza's obituary was published in the Rochester Sentinel on 9 June 1930:

A most shocking tragedy occurred to relatives and many friends, Sunday morning, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar BALDWIN, 530 Fulton avenue, when Mrs. Eliza BITTERS, widow of the late Andrew Tully BITTERS, took her life by inhaling gas. For the past two years or more, Mrs. Bitters had been afflicted with a mental aberation, first induced by a fall and breaking of her arm, and that misfortune, in addition to infirmity and sickness of her husband, so preyed on her mind that she held a saddened aspect toward life, and apparently persistently and insistently cultivated a morose, melancholy and solemn disposition, notwithstanding all efforts of relatives, neighbors and friends could do to relieve her distress or persuade her to seek a brighter side of life.
Since the demise of her husband, last October, Mrs. Bitters had lived with Mr. and Mrs. Oscar BALDWIN. Sunday morning a telephone call to Mrs. Baldwin announced the passing of Mrs. John J. HILL and requested her to come and help at that home. It is thought that the sad news of the passing of a friend brought on an acute attack of despondency, and at such favorable opportunity, when temporarily left alone, determined to end her troubles by taking her life. Previous to the telephone call the usual Sunday harmony was not abridged at the Baldwin home, and Mrs. Bitters ate a hearty breakfast and was unusually talkative. After Mrs. Baldwin hurried away, Mr. Baldwin prepared to go to Sunday school and church. Mrs. Bitters asked if he intended to stay for church service and he replied in the affirmative. That aroused no suspicion, as preparations were made for her usual Sunday morning ablution after the departure of Mr. Baldwin. As soon as he left the house, however, Mrs. Bitters took a cushion,
folded it on the table, placed a chair, seated herself, rested her head on the cushion, her face within a few inches of the gas burner, opened the valve, and in a minute had inhaled sufficient gas to make her unconscious. When Mr. Baldin returned from church, he detected a strong odor of gas as soon as he opened the front door. Hastening to the kitchen he beheld the lifeless form of Mrs. Bittrs seated at the table, head resting on the cushion and gas turned on full blast. If Mr. Baldwin
had been a man that smokes and had entered with a lighted cigar, the house would have blown to atoms. He quickly opened the doors she had closed, then phoned his wife to come home at once. Dr. Archie BROWN was summoned, but he found life extinct. Relatives were called, also Coroner A. E. STINSON, while messages were sent to relatives, including her son, Alfred CHATTEN, at Kenton, Ohio. It was a grievous situation for all who knew the deceased, occasioning the deepest regret, for in her normal life she was a lovable character, a good neighbor, loving life an estimable citizen. Funeral arrangements and obituary will appear in Tuesday’s issue of the News-Sentinel.

Funeral services for Mrs. Eliza BITTERS, who on Sunday morning ended her life by inhaling gas fumes in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar BALDWIN, will be conducted at the Presbyterian Church, Wednesday 2:00 p.m. with Rev. D. S. PERRY in charge. Interment will be made in the I.O.O.F. cemetery. Eliza CHATTEN, daughter of the late John E. and Mary Ann CHATTEN, was born in London, England, April 3, 1863, passed to celestial life at the home of her friends, Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Baldwin, 530 Fulton Avenue, this city, Sunday morning, June 8, 1930, aged 67 years, 2 months, 5 days. When the deceased was a child of nine years, she came to America with her parents and other children. The date of the coming of the family to Rochester is not known to the writer, but must have been shortly after their arrival in this country. On Christmas, 1880, she was united in marriage with Thomas A. LOTT, deceased, by Rev. H. H. LEAMY, near North Vernon, Penn. To this union one son, Alfred LOTT, was born Oct. 29, 1881, who was later legally adopted by his grandparents and took the name of [Alfred] CHATTEN. The second marriage occurred with the late Andrew Tully BITTERS, April 28, 1891, his demise dissolving their marital union Oct. 11, 1929. No children were given to grace their happy home, but the parental instinct of both husband and wife made their hearthstone a loving abiding place for youths who always knew them as Uncle and Aunt. Mrs. Bitters early gave her heart in keeping of the Master, affiliating with Christian church. Subsequently to her marriage with Mr. Bitters, she transferred her membership to Presbyterian church, this city, and for many yeas was an active and earnest worker in the vineyard of her faith. The regularity of her attendance at all church functions only ceased when misfortune and sickness ended her activity. She was also a highly esteemed member of the Rochester Chapter No. 70, Order Eastern Star for practically thirty years, holding both elective and appointive stations therein. She was regarded for her devotion to the great moral principles involved and her willingness displayed at all times to do all her hands could find to extend the character of the cause she loved. As a daughter and citizen no encomium can express all that is due for the clean and noble life she lived, a loving wife, kindly to little ones, and always affectionate to many friends. Her release from the afflictions of this life, the trials and sorrows that fell to her portion, can not now be considered as a matter of regret, but, those left to weep o’er the sadness of her passing only trust that her transition was pleasant to her and a glad reunion in that house not made with hands.4
