Hazleton Plain Speaker; Friday, July 6, 1894:
Andrew J. Croll died at his home in Jeanesville on Wednesday evening. Deceased had been suffering for the past year from an internal tumor, and although all that medical aid could do was done for him his condition did not seem to improve. He spent several months in a Philadelphia hospital last fall, but returned home but little improved in health. He resumed his duties as telegraph operator at the Lehigh Valley office in Jeanesville and had an occasional attack of sickness which compelled him to quit work. On last Wednesday he had a similar attack, going to his home where he remained until death relieved him. Although his health was not the best, his death was not expected so sudden.
He is survived by a wife and one child.
Previous to going to Jeanesville he was engaged in the livery business in this city, and conducted a livery stable on Chestnut street for nine years. He had many warm friends in this city and during his time in Jeanesville had gained a large circle of friends and acquaintances who are sorry to hear of his death and sympathize with his family in this their sad affliction.
His remains were removed last evening to the home of his brother-in-law, P.J. Miller, No. 125 East Green street, in this city, from which place the funeral takes place at 1 o'clock Saturday. Interment will be made in Vine street cemetery.
