ALLEN ARCHER PASSES AWAY
As Result of Having Back Broken Last Summer

Allen Archer, the unfortunate young man, who received a broken back as the 
result of a tree falling upon him while he was at work in the woods nears McBain 
last August, died at the home of his mother int his village last Thursday 
afternoon, after many long weeks of patent suffering, during which time his 
death has been momentarily expected.

Allen Archer, son of Mr.and mrs.Geo. W.Archer, was born in Campbell in 1885 and 
died Thursday, Nov. 21, 1907, having resided in the village for the past eight 
years, excepting times when he was away at work. He was a young man of good 
habits, industrious and of a retiring nature. Nearly a year ago he became 
converted to the Christian faith, and during his last illness he has shown 
remarkable Christian fortitude, often expressing a wish and at times begging 
that he might be allowed to die.

He leaves his mother, Mr.Mary Archer (his father having died nearly a year ago) 
three sisters-Mrs.Ed Townsend, Mrs.Frank Gleason, Mrs.Nelson Trumpower-and two 
small brothers.

A short service was held at the house at one o'clock Sunday, the funeral being 
held at the U.B. church at 2 o'clock.
