    • ANOTHER PIONEER GOES HOME DEATH OF JOHN TREUSCH.

      John Treusch, one of the old guard, passed away at the home of his son, Mr. This Adam Treusch, on Thursday. This pioneer was in his 81st year.

      He was born in Hessen-Darmstadt, Germany, on April 17th, 1829, and came to Berlin 63 years ago.

      He was a cooper by trade and followed it in Berlin and Doon for some years and then removed to Kossuth, where he resided for forty years. In May of this year he came to live with his son and spent his remaining days in Berlin. Mr. Treusch was a sterling man, upright and industrious and was generally respected by all who knew him.

      In 1852, he married Miss Elenora Werlich, of Berlin, and their union was blessed with twelve children. Mrs. Treusch died 15 years ago, and of the children, three sons and two daughters survive their parents, namely, Adam, of Berlin; William, of Philadelphia, Pa.; John, of Michigan; Mrs. Jacob Kramp, of Shantz's Station, and Mrs. P. Woolner, of Berlin.

      The funeral will be held on Monday, Oct. 4th, to the Preston cemetery.
