The homestead residence of Clarence H. Orendorf on his farm just south of the village of Frankfort, Herkimer county, narrowly escaped being destroyed by fire Monday morning. Water was secured from a cistern, and while the men pumped the water, the women ferried a bucket brigade and carried it to the roof and attic and succeeded in getting it out in half an hour after it was first seen. The main part of the house was saved, but the roof and attic of the wing, and the kitchen and dining room were, badly damaged by fire and water.

Frankfort ... Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Orendorf are the parents of a bright baby girl. She has been named Edith Evelyn.- Newspaper Article (Ilion Citizen, NY, Thursday, August 2, 1912)
Little Edith Orendorf, the two-year old child of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Orendorf, who live just south of this village, was kicked in the forehead by a horse last Monday evening, receiving serious injuries. The father had gone to the barn to feed the horses and the little girl followed her father and entered the barn without his knowing it. She must have gone back of the horses and perhaps touched one on the leg. The first Mr. Orendorf knew of the accident, he heard her fall, and rushing down from the loft was horrified to find her lying back of the horses with the blood streaming over her face. He carried her to the house where the mother washed the wound with antiseptics and as soon as possible brought her to the office of Dr. Albones in this village. An examination revealed that the skull was fractured and it was thought advisable to have an operation, so the parents took the child to the Ilion Hospital about 11 o'clock Thursday night, where the operation was performed by Dr. Albones and Dr. Hayes. Two pieces of bones were found broken off and lying against the brain, which were removed. The child appeared bright and strong after recovering from the ether and it is hoped that, no further complications will follow. It was a narrow escape, though, from instant death.- Death Announcement (Daily Press, Utica, NY, Friday, August 31, 1956)
