Albert J. Yerkes, died last Sunday, October 22, at his home, 234 Winona street, Germantown, aged 58 years. Mr. Yerkes is very well known in business circles in Philadelphia as a member of the firm of Yerkes Bros. & Co., 627 Market street, dry good merchants. He arose from the position of ordinary office boy to that of head of the firm. His widow Sallie, daughter, Annie, and a brother, Theodore survive him.
