  Levi Albright, sr., died very suddenly at his home at 8.30 Monday 
evening. He was born in Freedom township, April 4th, 1834, and was 
therefore aged 71 years, 3 months and 7 days. In 1855 he was married to 
Miss Elizabeth Reininger. For many years he was an employe of the paper 
mill but had to quit work in 1903. His sudden death was caused by an 
affection of the heart. Mr. Albright became a member of the German 
Baptist church 44 years ago and in the faith he died. He was a good 
neighbor and a man who provided well for his family and by them as well 
as his neighbors he will be much missed. In politics he was identified 
with the democratic party and adhered closely to its principals. His 
funeral took place Wednesday afternoon, the procession leaving the 
house at 3 o'clock. The services were conducted by Elders D. B. 
Maddocks and D. M. Adams and interment was made in the Albright 
cemetery south of town. Deceased is survived by his wife and the 
following named children:  Samuel R., Albert, David, Aaron, Obediah, 
Charles and Mrs. Sarah McAnia [McIlnay - ed.]. One son, Harry, died in 
infancy. Thirty six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren are 
living. One brother also survives him, Henry Albright who resides at 
Renovo. Mr. Albright lived in the vicinity of Roaring Spring for 36 
years.
