  BENJAMIN FRANKLIN DANNER
  "A Sad and Fatal Accident"
  
    Last thursday, July 14, 1910, Benjamin Franklin Danner of Liverpool
  who was a railroad track hand was caught by the Buffalo express near
  the tower at the Paxton picnic ground and instantly killed, his body
  being badly mangled.  Aged 37 years and 4 months.
    A coroner's inquest was held and the body was taken to Millersburg
  in the evening to prepare for burial.  On Friday the body was brought
  to his place and taken to the home of Jesse Zimmerman, the home of
  the unfortunate man being too small for funeral purposes.
    The funeral was held on Saturday morning.  Services were held at
  the house by Revs. Ott and Hartsock at 9 o'oclock after which the
  body was taken to Barners church where serices were held by the same
  ministers, and the body interred in the cemetery there.
    The floral tributes were very liberal - fifteen bouquets in all.
    Deceased was a good and industrious young man and the sole support
  of his aged mother, Mrs. Ellzabeth Clemens, who survives him.  He is
  also survived by a brother and a sister.
    Mrs. Clemens returns thanks to Mrs. Zimmerman for her help and
  kindness and the use of her house, and her other neighbors for their
  kindness help and sympathy, and all who donated flowers.
