  in western Pennsylvania when a young man. He worked on the old Pennsylvania
  canal several years under Captain Marshall and tiring of that employment went to
  Brady's Bend, Armstrong county, where he became an iron worker. His wife died in
  1870 and four years later, Mr. Freund moved to this place with his family, where
  he resided until his death. Mr. Freund is survived by three children, as
  follows: Mrs. J.B. Hoffman and Frank Freund, of town, and Jacob Freund, of
  Independence, Mo. Mr. Freund was a devout Roman Catholic and was the oldest
  member of the local church. He never missed a service when the condition of his
  health allowed him to be present. His death was caused by brain trouble, from
  which he had been ill a month.Funeral services were held in the St. Bernard
