Johnny MOrg, an old German, who
died in Clinton county, last week, was
perhaps the Oldest man in the world.
He came to this country in 1912 and he
had papers to show that he served as a
soldier in War of 1872; that he was
twenty-four years old when he enlisted.
Taking that as the cue, he was one
hundred and twenty-one years old when
he died He became citizen of Gin
ton county great many years ago. and
was known tc nearly every body in the
county.
When young man he was a scien-
tific boxer. and often entertained
crowds with his skill-as often as a
person would spair with him.
1t is also said that in his early days
he was an interesting conversationalist,
and the stories he would relate of his
experiences were thrilling.
For ten or fifteen years before his
death his mind was greatly impaired.
