REV. MEYERS DEAD
Old Pioneer Dies at His Home, Northeast of Town

Rev.Daniel Meyers who has been ill with heart disease and dropsy since the first 
of October, died at is home east of the village and south of Lakeside cemetery, 
last Thursday morning. The funeral was held at the U.B.Church Woodbury Saturday 
forenoon, Rev. Mourer of Freeport officiating, the remains being brought back to 
Lakeside cemetery for interment.

Rev. Meyers was born in Pennsylvania about 74 years ago and was married to Amy 
Miller in Seneca Co., Ohio, in 1851. To this union there were born eight 
children, seven of whom still live to mourn his death; Albert of Sebews; Jennie 
Sturgis of Saranac; A.J., Alice Barber and Emma Colton of Nashville; Carrie Neff 
of Bellevue and Walter of this place. After the death of his first wife he was 
married to Mrs.Elizabeth White and to them we born two children, Cyrus and Otis 
who have lived at home and are well known here.

Mr.Meyers entered the ministry when thirty years of age and has followed this 
calling as a minister of the Radical U.B.Church until his age and poor health 
made it necessary fore him to retire from his profession and  spend his 
declining years in comfort and quiet. His long life in this part of the country 
has gained for him a large circle of dear friends who will regret to hear that 
he is gone. In all his life he has been a lightly respected and religious man 
and one worthy of the promised reward.

The community at large sympathize with the bereaved who it seems, have of late 
had more than their share of trouble
