Black, of Pine Grove, W. Va.; Mrs. Mary E, Wiles, of Tlonesta town ship; Jerry Black, of Warren; Mrs. Her bert Norton and Mrs. Blanche Cross, of Jamestown. Mr. Black was a member ol Co. E. or the famous old 10th Pennsyl vania Reserves, which was raised largely through the efforts or the late Col, John S. McCaltnont, who left the Judicial bench in the Venaugo-Clarion-Jefferson district to aid his country in tbe war, who de clared that it was his duty to fight for the old flag, as he had been educated at West Point. Comrade Black enlisted as a pri vate May 15, 1861, and rose to tbe rank of sergeant. He was one of Judge McCal- tnonts's first recruits, and served faith fully with that glorious old regiment un til discharged Aug. 22, 1802, by reason of serious wounds. He was wounded in battle two or three times and was well entitled to he called "a war scarred veter- au" He bore the marks or bis devotion to bis country on bis face, being as bis friends remember, "powder blown," marks which he carried until bis death. He was the principal promoter of the organization of Capt. Geo. Stow Post, and consequently one of the origiual charter members when It was organized, Aug. 9, 1882.

K1LLMKK. William Killmer, one ol the oldest and most respected residents of Tlonesta, died at his home at four o'clock Saturday morning, February 12, 1010, from the re sult or a stroke or apoplexy which he sustaiuod about two months ago. Mr. Killmer was born lu Rauda, lies son Cassel.uow llesseu Nassau, Germauy March 30, 1825. He was the sou of Henry aud Margaret (Isenteager) Killmer, who reared three sous and three daughters, all or whom lived to adult age, but or whom the subject of this sketch was tbe last survivor. He attended school until be was 14 years of age, and then was con firmed In the German Reformed church and beld to that faith during bis life, but for a number of years has been an attend ant of the Presbyterian church of Tlo nesta. In his youth he learned the trade of a shoemaker and had no superiors as a workman, especially as a maker of boots, aud only relinquished active work about a year ago. Upon reaching his majority be was drawn for service in the army aud served in the famous cavalry troop at the King's court, a maguitiueut body of stalwart men, always selected for their stature and strength, the most perfect physical types to be found in Germany, Of this troop of cavalry, the personal guard and escort of the King, Mr. Kill mer was noted as oue or the liuest spec! mens, Mr, Killmer's father was Burgo master of his native village. In 1852 Mr. Killmer and bis brother Henry left their native land and came to this country, They made tbe voyage from Bremen to Baltimore, Md., by sailing vessel, in thirty-niue days; then coming to Tlo nesta, where they joined Jacob Wenk, whom they bad known in Germany. There mother was sad over their depart ure and declared she never would again see them alive. Her sorrow at the de parture of the sons possibly hastened her demise, which occurred in 1853. Decem ber 19, 1852, William Killmer was united in marriage with Miss Anna Catherine Matba, who was also from Germany, and who died June 22, 1872. To them were born nine children, of whom live are now living, Miss Mary, who is at home, Mrs. Philip Williams, William F., Charles J., and George II. Killmer, all of Tlonesta. Four grandchildren also survive, all of whom reside In Tlonesta, except Clyde Murphy, who resides in Youngstown, Ohio. Funeral services were held at his late borne Monday afternoon at 2:30, conduct ed by Rev. II. A, Bailey, assisted by Revs. W. O. Calbnun and K. L. Monroe. In terment was made in Riverside cemetery. An old friend furnishes this tribute to bis memory: "He was German born and was reared to manhood in tbe land he loved so well. Attended tbe schools of bis native laud and it must be said be im proved bis opportunities. But while he always loved the laud of bis fathers, be loved the people ol bis adopted land and became as good a citizen as if be had been born in America. In the 58 years of time that he dwelt among us he clasped hands with a host of friends and drew to him self their love and confidence. He was a great reader, being particularly well versed in tbe history of Germany Irom tbe foundation ol that empire until the present time. A lew years ago he reread to the knowledge of tbe writor the great historian Schiller's "History of the Thirty Years' War," with which he was very familiar. He took a great Interest also in the history of bis adopted country, with which be was surprisingly familiar, noted the improvements of the times, and was perhaps, as well versed In the current events of tbe times as any man in Forest county. His memory was excellent, both of dates and circumstances, and be was frequently referred to by persons desiring Information, These qualities of mind drew to him men high in tbe walks of life and be numbered among his friends such men as Hon, Wm, P. Jf nks, Hon. Harry. White, Hon. W. M. I.ind sey, Hon. Christopher Ueydrick, aud many other noted men. His familiar figure for over half a century will be missed by a large circle of acquaintances bere and elsewhere. Such a man will be remembered for many years to come by the public and his decendants. He was broad minded and liberal, and above all was absolutely bluest in all things. He had the ability to see tbe right and tbe courage to do bis duty always." Found Dead by His Wife. James Birtcil, aged 50 years, a pumper on the Blank farm oil lease, between Pithole and Pleasantville, was found dead by his wile Tuesday afternoon, with his bead crushed.
