BURIED IN COFFIN
BOUGHT YEARS AGO.
At Somerset, last Thursday, David
J. Miller, an eccentric old bachelor,
was buried in the casket he selected
more than three years ago ‘and which |
was held in storage at an hngerialing |
establishment until taken out and dus-
ted preparatory to receiving the re-
maing of the owner. |
Miller’s body was interred in a grave |
At the head lot the newly made
grave stands a massive granite monu.
ment on which the name of David J.
Miller and the date of hisbirth are chis-
eled in large letters. The monument
was erected six or seven years ago in
the Husband Cemetery Association
grounds adjoining, the northern
Somerset borough boundary line, but
about three yeasr ago, Mr. Miller chan
géd his mind and deciding that he
wished to be interred at the village
of Husband he caused the monument
to be transferred to the cemetery at
that place.
Mr. Miller was born in Somerset
township June 1, 1827. When a young
man he went west and for many years
was Snceessfully engaged in farming
near Waterloo, Iowa. About twenty
years ago he returned to Somerset
and purchased a property on Cather-
ine street in which he resided alone
