Death of Thomas E. Hershberger

On May 24, Thomas E. Hershberger was taken sick with appendicitis, but 
received relief and was on the road to recovery when heart failure developed 
and was the immediate cause of death. On Wednesday evening June 12, 1901, at 
the home of his parents in Baldwin at seven o’clock, surrounded by his family 
and a few faithful watchers, he gave up the battle of life and passed 
peacefully into the great beyond where this world’s trials and sorrows are 
unknown.

Thomas Hershberger was a native of Jackson County and was born May 11, 1876. 
He was the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Abe Hershberger. The funeral services 
were conducted by Rev. Leiser, were held at the home of the parents on 
Saturday at ten a.m. Followed by the grief stricken family and a large 
concourse of sorrowing friends the remains were taken to the Home cemetery and 
laid to rest. The burial was under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias.
He was a graduate of Highland Park Commercial College, and spent some time 
teaching. For the past ten months he has been an efficient clerk in the 
employment of John Panuska.
