Martin Kochersperger died at his home, No. 17 Madison street, at 1:30 pm today, in his 76th year. For many years the deceased suffered more or less severely with neuralgia. Otherwise his health was generally good up to last summer when he was attacked with consumption. Last fall he was compelled to take to his bed from which he never arose. After consumption set in, neuralgia left him and he had little pain til the last week of his life, during which he suffered severely, being unable to rest day or night. Mr. Kochenspere was born in Alsace. In 1840 he came to this country, and settled on a farm at Coonrod, in this town. About fifteen years ago he removed with his family to this city. After leaving his farm he worked at his trade, that of a tailor. The deceased was a member of the Evangelical Church at Coonrod and an earnest Christian. Besides his wife he leaves three children - Jacob Kochersperger of Emerson, Iowa, Martin Kochersperger of San Francisco, Cal., and Mrs. Clark Briggs of Rome; also one brother, Jacob Kochenspere of Rome. The time of holding the funeral has not been fixed.
