Obituary John lelsenring. Hon. John Leisenrlng died at his resi dence early Friday morning, 22nd Inst., Brlght's disrate of tha kidpeys being tho immediate cause. He had heed complain ing lor many years and at times was a great sufferer. Recently he was troubled with Increasing deafness. He was confined to his room sinco April last. In 1880, with members of his family, he ylslled Europe, and his health wss temporarily improved. Lately he lived n retired life, haylug acquired a large fortune, being quoted a millionaire. His mansion is on an eleva tion In the centre of a three-aero plot culti vated to perfection, making tho surround ings as beautiful nnd 'pleasant as any In the State, and adjoining the p'nlfltlal residences of the late Hon. Asa Packer, and Judge Harry Packer. Doctor Wentz, o( Jeddo, his brother-in-law, was his family physician, and had solo charge of the patient. John Leisenrlng was born In Philadelphia In 1819, and went to Mauch Chunk In IS28. At IT years of age he was civil engineir, working under the late Asa Packer. Ho assisted In building the Belyldero Delaware Railroad, as well as the first railroad from White Haven to Wilkesbarre, tho Morris Canal and the Jiealgh Coal ami Navigation Company's canals, but his masterpiece nf engineering was the construction ortho Iron bri lees cro.slng tho Lehigh nnd Delaware Rivers nt Easton, Pa. Ho was one of the first to engage extensively In the coal busi ness. He orzanizod many coal companies, nnd was president of several. He built the famous Switchback Railroad toconvev coal mined bv himself and others. In 1SS0 he was superintendent of tlinLihlgh Coal and Navigation Company, no was a diree tor nf the Central Railroad Company of New Jersery nnd president orthe Conuells villa Onlf.a,,,! Irnl, 0,ih,nV. I In 1871 ho waa elected associuto judge. and this year the liepublican blale Uon ventlnn ploced his naino al the head of tho list or presidential electors. In IK44 he was married InCarolino Brtsch, whotu hp. etir- v I veil with four children, named E. B. Leisenring, of Audenried; Mrs. Dr. Wentz, Jr., of Jeddo: Mrs M S. Kemerer nnd John Leisenrlnc. Jr., of Mauch Chunk. Mr. Lei senrlng wos nt n generous, kind hearted nature and an anient public spirited man Hiaartsof charily ond bencfieenco will long be remembered in llio virinlty of Mauch Chunk. Tho funeral look piano on Monday in the family cemeterv lu that piare. During his long nrllvc business 1 1 le. Mr. Leisenrlng is said to have accumulated great wealth, leaving an estate yalued at nearly $3,uun,iuu. Peculiar Accident. While Dr. C. T. Horn was driving from Mauch Chunk, asrenning the mountain from the Mansion House, a good sized stone came rolling from above and struck the Index finger of the Doctor's left hand,which was resting on his knee, with such force as lo almost mssh that useful member. Be fore reaching the spot the Doctor saw number of boys on the mountain side a few hundred feet abovo the road,and ho believes that, as the stone struck him with such force it nust have received some propelling pow er at the hands ol tho said boys. II this be the case, as no donbtit is, such parties should be severely dealt with, for bad the rock struck the Doctor on tbo head, he thinks the force was great enough to have proyed fatal to any one. Wo are happy to say that under the doctors skillful treat ment the finger Is again assuming its natur nl shape. L, A Seven Cent Law Salt.
