    Notes:

    It is our sad duty to report the death of Mr. Peter Algeier whose serious illness was mentioned last week. Death is supposed to be due to the bursting of a blood vessel in his head, caused by a fall. Alarming symptoms developed only after a day or two had passed, when the patient became drowsy and eventually unconscious, in which stupor he lay for several days until his death. Deceased was a quiet, industrious man and much respected by all who know him. He leaves a wife and four children who have the sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement. Mr. Mich. Algeier of Elmira is a brother of the deceased.

In 1? the subject of this sketch was married to Mary Brubacher. In 1865 they settled in North Woolwich, where they experienced some of the hardships of pioneer life in hewing out a home for themselves; but success crowned their efforts, and in their later years they could enjoy the results of their labors in their comfortable home. After they had journeyed together for 43 years, toiling, rejoicing, and sorrowing Mr. Allgeier was called on to mourn the loss of his beloved wife. He remained on the old homestead with his son Peter, enjoying fairly god health until Feb. 11th, when he took sick. He grew gradually weaker until four days afterwards, when he passed peacefully away at the age of 76, leaving two sons and four daughters to mourn the loss of a kind father.

    The funeral took place on Wednesday morning, Feb. 18th, to the Floradale Mennonite Cemetery, a large number of friends and relatives paid a last tribute of respect to an honored friend.
