The image of the 1901 NY Death Index page shows "Norman S" under Bentley with 23 Sep and "Saratoga Spge". This matches the claimed name, date and place. The index has no age or relatives, so the person's identity rests on the unusual name and the matching details.
Matches: Entry under Bentley: "Norman S", 23 Sep, Saratoga Spge, certificate no. 39435 (digits partly blurred); Page is headed "Death Index 1901", so the year matches the claimed 1901 death; Day and month (23 Sep) match 23 September 1901; "Saratoga Spge" is an abbreviation of Saratoga Springs, which matches the claimed place; Saratoga County and New York State follow from the index
Limits: The index gives no age, so the 1831 birth year cannot be checked and the entry could belong to another Norman S Bentley; The index gives no parents or spouse, so identity depends on the name, date and place alone; Place is given only as an abbreviated town name; the county is inferred; The certificate number is slightly blurred in the scan and is not needed for the claim
