ROHRER, one of the prominent and well known farmers of Clark and Champaign counties, died at his late home, one half mile north of Tremont City, Thursday morning at about 2 o'clock. The death of the decedent was caused by consumption against which he had bravely battled for many years. Mr. ROHRER was an active man during his life when in health, being a farmer of some prominence, and took special interest in matters pertaining to the farm. He was a charter member of Tremont Grange and had served as master of the order several terms. The grange was organized at his house more than 30 years ago. Mr. ROHRER was a brother-in-law of Hon. John H. BLOSE. He was about 59 years of age and is survived by his second wife. The funeral will occur this morning from the Nettle Creek church, near Westville in Champaign county at 10 o'clock. He was a prominent member of Clark Lodge F. and A. M. in Springfield and also a member of the Knights Templars, which order will have charge of the funeral services. Mr. ROHRER was a kind-hearted man and a friend to all mankind. He was a liberal man and never was a man to turn away from his house when in need of food or other assistance. Our community will mourn his departure, for his cheerful voice will no longer be heard on our streets. Mrs. ROHRER and other relatives have the sympathy of this entire neighborhood. Friends and acquaintances are invited to attend the funeral services.
