Sudden Death.

On Monday afternoon last, shortly after l
O'Clock, Mr.. Henry Drechsler, a well-known
citizen of Woolery's district, while engaged in
playing tenpins at the Montour House, in this
city, suddenly fell to the floor and expired.
An inquest was held over the remains by
Justice Crapster, with DR.. Bott as physician,
the Jury deciding that his death was caused
by paralysis of the heart. Seemingly Mr..
Drechsler was a hearty man, but from his
family we learn that he had been complaining
for nearly a year. He was born in Bavaria,
Germany, had resided in this county about 80
years, and leaves wife and several children.
He was member of the Deer Park German
Lutheran Church, ard took an active part in
all matters pertaining to the Church. His
funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon.
