  • Notes 
    • A particularly sad death was that of David Frey, about four miles north-east of Elmira, which took place on Sunday. Deceased had been sick only about a week, death being caused by a severe attack of pneumonia. He was only about forty years old and leaves his sorrowing wife, (nee Judith Wideman) and seven children, the oldest of whom is about 14 years old. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Christ. ? near Heidelberg, and several brothers and sisters also survive. They have the sympathy of the community in their sad bereavement. The funeral, this morning was attended by a large number of relatives and friends.
