Ebert BalImer.

Mr.. and Mrs. John Fl. Ballmer and fami-
ly living in Damascus township, we're called
upon Tuesday to undergo the greatest grief
to which mankind is heir in the death Of
their Oldest son, Ebert Ballmer, from lung
fever. 1t seems that the young man, from
the estimate of oil eastern Henry county,
was an exemplary son to degree as to COM
mand admiration, respect and love from all
his acquaintances. tt WIS his constant aim
to please father and mother, sisters and
brothers first, then attend to his own wants
afterwards. Honest, upright and kind, he
was pillar in the household, the loss Of
which will ever remain an empty void
around the fireside, in the field and among
companions.
The funeral services were held at the
Christian Union Church Thursday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock, Rev. Foltz officiating. As a
mark of respect hundreds of neighbors and
friends were in attendance at the last sad
rites.
The Mcclure Press touching on Ebert's
death, says:
His fatal illness was the outcome of fine
traits in his character. A few weeks ago he
told his parents that he felt it his duty to not
be burden upon them and that with their
consent he would hunt up some work away
from home. Accordingly he got job Of
ditching. The exposure brought on an at
tack Of lung fever, and the result we have in
his death just when entering upon manhood,
he being in the nineteenth year Of his age.

David Nfeekison. sr.

On last Saturday Napoleon was called
upon to give up another of its Oldest pion-
eers by the death of David Meekison, Sr.,
father to our Mayor, Judge David Meekison.
He had reached the advanced age of 80
years, II months and 10 days, and although
this old, the hardy Scotch stock to which he
belonged gave him remarkable command Of
his faculties in both mind and body. Itwas,
then, more old age than disease that caused
his life to quietly take its departure from a
world in which he had so long been an in
habltant.
He was born in Scotland and emigrated to
America in the Spring of 1851, first locating
fat Genessee Valley, N. Y. where he lived one
year. Not liking the place he migrated to
Henry county where he has since lived. He
sent for his family, consisting of wife and
sons, James, John and David, whom he left
at Dundee, Scotland, and who arrived here
in 1856. He settled in Henry county when it
was wild and unbroken wilderness and
has seen many radical ichanges-a transfor-
nation from swamps and forests into cult
waited fields and thriving towns.
The funeral of Mr.. Meekison was held
from the residence of his son David on Haly
avenue, Sunday afternoon, with Rev. Dona-
hey in charge. The remains were laid to
their final rest in Glenwood cemetery.

The deceased had given birth to a child

caused her death.
No pen can justly portray the great loss
sustained in the death of Mrs. Counselman.
A heart-broken husband and six helpless

Mrs. w. W. Campbell.

AAos vs. W. OOhHPOCbs
Mr.. Hiram VanCampen received tele-
gram from Auburn, California, Saturday
night announcing the death of his sister.
Mrs. W. w. Campbell.
While the announcement was not altogeth-
or unexpected. it was shock to the deceas
eds friends, and leaves a path of sorrow in
Napoleon where she was dearly beloved.
A victim of life's greatest enemy, con-
sumption, Mrs. Campbell's fight, almost
again-t hope, was one heroic, and at the
same time ssd. About nine months ago real
izing that this climate would prove disas-
trous to winter here the family of father,
mother and two sons left for far away Cali
fornis to search after health in the balmy
climate of the Pacific slope.
Then followed weeks and months of anx-
ious waiting on part of Napoleon friends.
Reports of her health were eagerly read, scat
tering sunshine or gloom as the relentless
disease seemingly toyed with its victim; at
times giving hope, then again plunging the
family and friends into the abyss of dispair.
The fight was prolonged but disease tri-
umphed, and the hope from her friends here
in Napoleon of again greeting her was
ruthlessly shattered as the message arrived
announcing the sad fact of her death.
Mrs. Campbell was born in New Bedford,
Mass, Nov. 10th, 1856. making her 81 years,
5 months and days of age at time OF her
death.
During her residence 10 Napoleon che was
a prominent member of the Ladies' Aid So
oiety ofthe Presbyterian church and drew
around her large circle of warm friends.
Later intelligence is to the effect that Mr..
Campbell and family left Auburn yesterday
with the remains and will arrive at Fostoria
probably Friday, where deceased will be
buried. eF@t'
