                         *************
The large circle of friends of Mr. William Erxleben were pained to hear of his 
death, which occurred at the residence of his mother, 56 Falkland Street, on 
Sunday morning. Mr. Erxleben was a model young man, an earnest member of the 
Second Presbyterian Church and secretary of that organization's Sunday school. 
Some years ago he recovered from a very desperate illness, but his health had 
never been perfect since that time. He had held the position of bookkeeper for 
Vickery & Co. for a long time, but was compelled to resign last summer on 
account of failing health. Mr. Erxleben was a member of Norfolk Lodge 32, 
I.O.O.F. and this organization will attend his funeral in a body this afternoon. 
The ceremonies will be conducted at the Second Presbyterian Church, and the 
interment will be in the family plot in Elmwood.
