AFataIOccurrence,

On last Thursday night George La
ber, of Edinburg, came to his death
near the transfer of the c. & P. r. r.,
by being struck by passing train.
The exact manner in which he was
killed, and by what train is unknown,
as no one was near when it happened.
When the night police on the g. & P.
Ry. found him he was lying by the
side of the track. A Coroner's inquest
held by A. III. Barlow revealed that
the right temple was crushed and two
fingers of the right hand were cut off.
He was probably sitting on the end Of
tie, as the train approached, and per-
haps partially unconscious at the time
as it was late at night. he was only
reused when close by, which may have
caused him to turn his head toward
the train and was thus struck by it.
1t is remarkably strange that his in
No other marks were noticeable except
the loss of the fingers as aforesaid.
When found he was taken to the ex-
press room of the G. & P. r. r. depot,
until morning, when he was taken to
Fairchild's Undertaking rooms and
on Saturday, at IL a. m., was buried in
the Ravenna Cemetery. His funeral
was attended by his friends and rela-
tives and some of his neighbors where
he formerly lived.
Mr.. Laber had started that afternoon
to go to Kent, and to that end he
meant to take the :53 train, which
he evidently missed, for the mishap
occurred near midnight.
Mr.. Laber was born in Hesse Darn
stadt, Germany, and was in his 53rd
year. He leaves his wife, and five
children all by his first wife. His first
wife was Catherine Eidemiller. She
died in Allegheny, Pa, in July, 1873.
His second wife, who survives him,
was Mrs. Mary Harget.
His surviving children are George,
Mary, Lizzie, Adam and Maggie La
ber. The first two living in Pennsyl-
vania and the others in Ohio.
His body was appropriately inferred
on lot in Maple Grove Cemetery Sc
lected by his children.

The annual meeting and picnic of
the Edinburg Union Pioneer Asso-
cion" will be held on Wednesday,
Sept. 18th, in the maple grove of L. B.
King and Son, in Charlestown. A
general invitation is extended to all,
and the members are especially re-
que sted to furnish historical accounts
of early times, anecdotes of early set
tiers, obituaries, and anything that
will help to make the gathering one of
pleasure and profit. Each town is re-
quested to furnish vocal and instru-
mental music, and doubtless the soul
stirring strains of five and drum would
be pleasing to all.
Rev. R. F. Randolph, of Ravenna,
will deliver an address on the occasion.
At the annual business meeting the
following Committee of Arrangements
were chosen:

MR.. T. G. PHILLIPS.
Dear Sr:-After fully considering
your statement of the result of my
Tontine Policy No. 74224, which you
procured for me ten years ago, have
concluded of the four options to take
the 3rd. That is, to pay the premium
due Aug. l, 1882, out of the profits and
apply the balance to the purchase of
an annuity, and continue the policy
on the life plan, making future premi-
ums $500 instead of $500 that have
been paying, With this settlement I
am well satisfied, believing it to be the
best and cheapest insurance that can
be had, and the Equitable to be all you
represented it to be in point of ability,
liberality and promptness in the ad-
justment of claims.
Yours Respectfully,
MRS. NJ. A. THOMAS,
