prior to death.  He was 47 years, 11 months and 25 days.

The deceased was a son of the late Peter and Rebecca (Miller) Boose, and was born near 
Abbottstown, January 6, 1868.  About twenty five years ago he was married to Miss Ida Hess, of 
Bermudian, Adams County, and the most of their life was spent in that county, coming to Hanover 
near McSherrystown last September.

Mr. Boose leaves his wife and four children:  Amanda Rebecca, Hope Ivadelle, Catharine Arline 
and Ber????, all at home.  One brother, Tempest Boose, of Dillsburg, and two sisters, Mrs. 
James Stonesifer, White Hall and Miss Susan Boose, of Bellafonte, also survive.
