and there were many times when he was |
Ill but did not give any outward show of |
his condition. Mr.. Ancker was, at one |
time, one of the most popular conductors |
on the Pennsylvania railroad, and had |
friends all over the state. He retired |
from active service about ten years ago,
but he could not rest idle and for long
time be was valuable assistant in the |
office of the Burlington County Traction
Company. Always cheerful in DISPOSE
ton his company was greatly enjoyed |
Dy those who were so fortunate as to be
numbered among his friends. His fun
sral took place yesterday, interment
being made in Mount Holly cemetery.
