Albright, a lifelong resident of Roaring Spring and vicinity and the last of a family of eight children of Levi and Elizabeth (Reininger) Albright, died suddenly near his home on Locust street in Roaring Spring this morning shortly after 10 o'clock. Mr. Albright was apparently in the best of health previously. He had gone down town to the paper mill, where he had been employed for the past twenty-five years, where he was told to report for work after noon. He went back home and as he passed the house, rapped on the window and told his wife to get dinner early, as he was going to work. He walked down the street a short distance to talk to Dale Barley, driver of the department store truck, standing in front of the Plomer Dick residence. While talking to Mr. Barley he suddenly slumped to the street. Mr. Barley, and Mr. Dick, who was near at hand in his automobile, took him to the Nason hospital where Dr. W. L. Grounds pronounced him dead. Coroner Chester C. Rothrock was notified and directed the removal of the body. Mr. Albright was born at Roaring Spring on June 26, 1876. On June 11, 1895, he was united in marriage with Anna Keiper at Roaring Spring, who survives, with five children, Earl Albright and Mrs. Mabel Boop of Hollidaysburg, Mrs. Harry Ringler of Lakemont and Norman and Mary Albright, both at home, and eight grandchildren. Mr. Albright was educated in the public schools of the borough and for the past twenty-five years was employed at the plant of the D. M. Bare Paper company.
