Poole.

On Tuesday last, 28th inst., this locality sustained a heavy loss indeed in the death of Mr. David N. Kropf. He had been unwell mostly all fall and was taking medical advice, but his most intimate neighbors had no suspicion of that grim messenger claiming him so soon; however it is only another proof that "in the midst of life we are in death." Mr. Kropf had but recently passed his 48th milestone, his remains were interred in the Amish burying ground here on Friday, 1st inst. and the funeral was attended by a large number of people, the deceased having been widely and favorably known and was always admitted to be one of the handiest men in the neighborhood. He was able to be arouud until about two hours before his death. A widow and family of eleven are left to mourn his demise, to whom is extended the sympathy of the neighborhood. A strange coincidence in connection with Mr. Kropf's death was that he was an executor of the estate of his brother the late Solomon Kropf, and being anxious to get the business wound up, was having a sale of the land and some of his own stock. Whilst the sale was going on his spirit took its flight.... Mrs. and Mr. Wm. P. Anderson of Tralee attended the funeral of the late Mr. D. N. Kropf and besides spent a few days amongst relatives and friends....

Horse's Kick Proves Fatal Noah Kropf Died in Stratford Hospital

Kicked in the head by a horse on the farm of his sister, Mrs. Noah Brenneman, on Lot 8 Con. 3, South Easthope, about five miles southwest of New Hamburg, Noah Kropf, aged 54 died in the Stratford hospital on Wednesday morning without regaining consciousness. The accident occurred last Saturday evening when Mr. Kropf let two horses out of the stable to put into pasture. Following the horses out of the stable door, one of them reared and kicked him above the eye from which he suffered a fractured skull and terrible head injuries. He was found unconscious in the barnyard and was rushed to the Stratford hospital for treatment, but from the outset no hope was held out for his recovery. The unfortunate accident victim was a son of the late Christian Kropf and was born near Cassel on September 17th, 1878. He spent his whole life in that district. Since his brother-in-law, Noah Bender, who died a few months ago, purchased the farm of the late Nicholas Roth in South Easthope, the deceased lived with his sister, who survives him besides two other sisters, Mrs. Peter B. Zehr, of South Easthope, and Mrs. Joseph J. Bender, of the Wilmot Township line, west of this village. The deceased was widely known and respected. The funeral will be held this Friday afternoon at 1.30 o'clock from his sister's home to the 16th line A.-M. Church and Cemetery in East Zorra.
