Philadelphia, Public Ledger, 1867-08-12
GEORGE ERETY, ESQ., a well-known Philadelphian, departed this life on Saturday morning, in the sixty-second year of his age. Mr. Erety has been for many years a leading citizen of that portion of the city formerly known as the Northern Liberties. Early in life he studied law, and was admitted to practive at the bar, and subsequently he was elected alderman, which position he held for a long time. For the past three years Mr. Erety has been President of the Board of Guardians of the Poor, a post which he has filled most acceptably to the people. His somewhat sudden death, caused by a stroke of paralysis, is regretted by a wide circle of friends.

THE INTERMENT.- The remains of George Erety, Esq., President of the Board of Guardians of the Poor, were interred yesterday, in Laurel Hill Cemetery. The religious services were conducted by Rev. J.
