Daberko, William

  An aged and respected citizen of Beachly Street, this place, died at 6 a. m. 
Wednesday following an illness of about three weeks from a paralytic stroke. He 
was aged 77 years. The deceased was born in Germany and came to this country 
after manhood's years had been reached. For a number of years he owned a small 
farm on the mountain side near town and by thrift he managed to get along well. 
Later he sold the farm for $1400 and half this amount he gave to his second wife 
who is still living. While husband and wife they occupied the same house, each 
took care of him-self or her-self. Mr. Daberko was a consistent Christian and 
his pastor, Rev. D. W. Michael conducted the funeral services at the home to-
day. Interment in Union Cemetery, Tressler undertaker.
