CRAMER Is our sad duty to note the death of one of our oldest citizens, Mr. John Cramer which occurred at his home near Pennsylvania Furnace on the 9th inst. after a brief illness. The deceased was prostrated by a severe attack of quinsy and from the first there was little or no hope of recovery entertained by his attending physician, Dr. Houser. Inexorable death coming all too soon, silently stole in upon him and called him from his family and neighbors, who held him in the highest esteem. His word was considered as good as his bond, he was the father of 12 children all, except one, with his wife survive him. He was aged 63 years, 5 months and 6 days; he was a member of the Reformed church. Interment was made at Pine Hall cemetery on the 11th inst., Rev. Blackard Aiken officiating.
