completed his eighth term as a justice

but a short time when he was again
elected a justice and has now com
pleted his fourth term, or another
twenty years. On account of his age
he refused to run again at the last
election and therefore retires after a
faithful and honorable service of forty
years.

Dauphin county, lived on the farm
that his great-grandfather bought in
1767 and which is still in the Epler
name. Mr. Epler cast his first vote
