Lee Center- - Jacob Abbuhl passed away suddenly this morning at his home in this village. He went down the cellar to attend to the furnace, and remaining away so long the family went downstairs and found him lying unconscious on the cellar floor. A physician was summoned but he was dead before he arrived.
Mr. Abbuhl was born in Canton Berne, Switzerland, in 1859. He came to this country about 50 years ago, where he followed the occupation of farming until a few years ago when he sold his farm and moved to the village, since which he was employed at the Olney and Flloyd Canning plant. He was united in marriage to Miss Susan Krebs, daughter of the late Mr. & Mrs. Samuel Krebs in October, 1891. Mrs Abbuhl passed away twenty or more years ago.
He is survived by four children, Edith, Ernest, and Howard at home, and Mrs. Bertha Fuez of Schencetady; also a brother at Schencetady.
Mr. Abbuhl was a quiet, unassumable, home-loving man, who had made many friends who will be saddened to hear of his death. Much sympathy is extended to the family in their sudden bereavement.
