The deceased came of German parent. age, and was born at Ehrbach, in Ger. many, With his parents he reached the United States while yet in infancy, the family first settling in the town of York, Pennsylvania. The parents were of high character, intelligent and well educated.

Under the able and business manage. the Central Press soon obtained an extensive circula- tion and became a popular, influential and prosperous journal. After a year or two Mr. Forney retired, and the pub- lication of the paper was successfully continued by Mr. Kurtz, Besides his skill in the printer's craft, Mr. Kurtz also wielded a facile pen, and wrote with clearness, force and ability, as was often evinced He remained in ment of the new associates in his editorial columns, the Central Press for ten years, at the end of which time, wishing to retire, he sold the prop- erty, control of then a well established and pros. perous business concern, to other per. sons, who again changed the name to that of the Bellefonte Republican, under which name it continues to be published. During the late war of the rebellion he was an earnest and devoted supporter of the cause of the Union and showed his patriotism by entering the avowed, military of the government, becoming in 1562 the quartermaster of the 145th Penn sylvania regiment, and serving with effi. ciency and honor in that capacity until 1864. At one time during his military service he was stricken down with a vio- lent and obstinate attack of typhoid fev. er. For days his condition, hovering be. tween life and death, most critical and caused the utmost anxiety and solic. tude family and friends, who feared he could not recover. At last, however, the slow, stubborn disease yielded to medical treatment, and con. valescence began. In time he regained sufficient strength, though by no means restored to normal health, to rejoin his regiment in Virginia and resume his | military duties. At another time in the | service he was the victim of a serious | and painful railroad accident, receiving | a severe injury to his hip from the effects | of which he was a frequent suffeier, He | also contracted chronic diarrhoea in the army, and from that unyielding torment of life he at last died.
