Jeremiah II. Eckenrode, one of our oldest and most respected citizens passed 
away at 2.15 Monday afternoon, at his home on Pennsylvania avenue. The deceased 
was born on February 15,1821, in Adams county, Pa., and was married November 
19, 1842, to Miss Barbara Kuntz, a native of Carrol county, Maryland, but a 
resident of Adams county at the time.  Mr. and Mrs. Eckenrode came to Tyrone in 
the spring of 1864, and have been residents ever since. Mr. Eckenrode conducted 
the Eagle hotel, now the Empire, for a number of years, but about ten years 
ago, he retired from active life. The couple were blessed with seven daughters 
and one son, Four children are living and four have passed away. Those living 
are Mrs. H. H. Kline, of Middletown; Mrs. W. H. Daughenbaugh, Mrs. M. A. 
Bolinger, and Mrs. W. H. Bing, of Tyrone.  The deceased was an earnest member 
of the Catholic church, and the services were held in St. Matthew's chapel 
Wednesday morning at nine o'clock.  Interment took place in the Catholic 
cemetery.

In the death of J. H. Eckenrode Tyrone loses an old and highly valued citizen, 
and one who has always taken an interest and pride in the welfare of our little 
city. The HERALD extends its heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family and 
relatives.
