After residing a number of years near Heidelberg, the young couple removed to the farm about a mile east of Elmira, now occupied by Mr. David S. Brubacher. Here they lived 28 years and removed to Elmira 13 years ago. Five children survive him, all of whom are residents of this district. They are Mrs. Henry Zilliax, Mrs. David Hollinger, Philip, John, Mary Ann of Elmira and Mrs. L. Hollinger of St. Jacobs. The departed was known as a man of many good qualities. He was a quiet disposition, a kind father and a respected citizen. He was remarkably hardy for his age and was up to the day of his death, in good health. Sunday morning he arose as usual, and while attending to his household duties was seized with a spell of dizziness, the effect of heart failure, which resulted in death before noon. The funeral took place Wednesday and was largely attended.
