Henry F. Eby Died Monday
Morning at Home on East Market Street.
WAS FIRST STATION AGENT
Served Term as Postmaster at Nappanee During Cleveland's Administration.

Henry F. Eby, aged 78 years 10 months and 6 days. One of the oldest and best known citizens of Nappanee, died Monday morning at 9: 15 o'clock at his home on E. Market Street, after a short illness.

Mr. Eby, who was born in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, on September 12, 1842 was brought to this country in 1857 by his parents, John W. and Veronica Eby, who settled in the Jones school house district near the southwest portion of Concord township. The parents, both natives of Pennsylvania, had spent a part of their career in Canada.

Mr. Eby in young manhood resided at Locke for some time, a town that was laid out in 1867 by his brother George Eby, and others, and he remained there some time after there was an exodus to Nappanee, following this town's establishment in 1875-6. However, he also became a resident of this growing community.

WAS FIRST FREIGHT AGENT.

Mr. Eby was the first B.&O. freight agent in Nappanee, when the Town was called Locke. His office was in an old freight car. He was afterwards engaged in the furniture and undertaking business for some time.

NAMED NAPPANEE.

With his brother, George Eby, he was instrumental in naming the town of Nappanee. Before a name was selected for this station by the B.&O. railroad, many wished to have the name of West Locke used. Mr. Eby and his brother had come from Nappanee, Canada, and they were influential in having this name chosen. This is a historical fact that will be of interest to many who have resided here but a few years and probably often wondered from where the town derived it name.

APPOINTED POSTMASTER BY CLEVELAND.

During Cleveland's administration he was appointed postmaster, a postion he filled very acceptably for three and one-half years.
Practically all the time since, until a short time before his death, he was employed by local industries as a cabinet maker and carver.
He was united in marriage with Miss Elizabeth Slabaugh, at Locke, in April 1865. She died about thirty-five years ago. Prior to her death they had moved to Nappanee. During his term as postmaster he was united in marriage with Mrs. Mary Helman. To this union were born three daughters, Eunice, Lula and Ethel. He is survivied by his wife, two daughters, Mrs. W. W. Kinney and Miss Lula; two step sons, Oliver and Charles E. Helman of Elkhart; also the family of a deceased step daughter, Mrs. Hugh Brevler; one sister, Mrs. Philip Cress of Philips, Wis., and one half brother, Moses Eby of Brampton, Ont., and many other relatives.
Early in life he became a member of the United Bretheren Church and about fifteen years ago untied with the St. John's Lutheren Church of Nappanee, in which he was a faithful worker until his death.
Funeral services were held from St. John's Lutheren Church, Tuesday afternoon at 3: 30 o'clock, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Wm. Boatman. Interment was in the South Union Cemetery under the direction of undertaker A. E. Wright.

Mr. Allan Huber, at one time mayor of Berlin, who is now in the Berlin and Waterloo Hospital suffering with a sore foot, was seen this, morning in regard to the above dispatch, and he said. "Mr. Joseph Fischer Eby dead. Why I knew him as well as I knew my own father. His father was 'Apothecary John W. Eby, who kept the first drug store in Waterloo County, at a place called Bucks Hill. and Later in the city of Berlin. His mother was Miss Christina Fischer, a noble woman. the noted midwife and German doctor of her day.

For a while. Joseph served his time with Abram Tyson, in a grocery store near where the American Hotel now stands, Soon after, he entered the store of Mr. Wm. Spiers, where Metcalfe Bros, store now stands, and here he laid the foundation of his career.

He was here until, at about 20 years of a age, when he left for Toronto, and I am sorry to learn of his death.

Joseph was born, as near as I can recolleet, near where Eassys store now stands on East King street, not far from where Mr. Hallman's grocery store formerly stood. He was considered a model boy, and everyone liked li him for his kindly manner."

Mr. Joseph F. Eby.

The death of Mr. Joseph F. Eby removes one of the best-known men in the wholesale grocery trade of Toronto.

Mr. Eby was taken ill last Wednesday, but his ailment had not been thought serious until pneumonia set in towards the end of the week, and death came yesterday at his residence, 35 Cluny avenue. The funeral will take place to-morrow to Mount Pleasant Cemetery. Born in Berlin, Ont., in 1844, he commenced his business career in the retail grocery trade. Later he was engaged in the wholesale grocery business with the firm of Howland & Fitch. He was afterwards a member of the firm of Fitch & Eby, and withdrew from that firm to go into partnership with Mr. Hugh Blain, with whom he had remained for the last 34 years. In his long commercial life he enjoyed the respect and confidence not only of his associates, but of his competitors.

He was one of the earliest members. of the Toronto Board of Trade. "While he had always been one of those silent members," said Secretary F. G. Morley last night, "he never lost sight of the importance of many issues. He might be regarded as one of the original members. While he was offered official positions in the gift of the association, he always declined them, though offering to render whatever assistance he could."

Mr. Eby married Miss Emily Jane MeMurtry, of Bowmanville, who survives him, together with two sons. Mr. H. Douglas Eby and Mr. W. P. Eby, and two daughters, Mrs. J. H. Woods. Calgary, and Mrs. Wm. Find- lay. Ottawa.

Mr. Eby was an ardent Liberal, and a member of Old St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church. He was a member of the National and Ontario Clubs, and president of the Fire Insurance Exchange.

"He was a faithful partner and a true friend," said Mr. Hugh Blain, "and I think everyone who knew him would say the same."
