Mr. Felix Arn, an aged and highly respected citizen of this township,
died very suddenly at his home west of town on Thursday evening, April 19th.
He had been out in the field, plowing and harrowing during the
forenoon. At noon he came in and put up the team for dinner. Failing to reach
the house, his daughter, Mrs. Emma Rea, of Belmont, who was visiting her father,
and who was the only one of the family besides Mr. Arn, that was at home at the
time, went to look for him.
She found him lying in the barnyard unconscious. She called a
gentleman who was passing, and together they got him to the house and put
him to bed, where he remained unconscious until 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening
when death claimed him. Cerebral hemmorage is given as the cause of death. Mr.
Arn had a paralytic stroke a few years ago, from which he never fully recovered.
Deceased was born in Switzerland township, this county, and was in his
75th year. He was a member of the Board of Trustees of Salem township at the
time of his death. He was a man of strict moral integrity, and held the
confidence and esteem of the entire community. A number of grown children
survive him.
The funeral took place Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock. Funeral services
were conducted by Rev. Pugh, of Cameron M. E. church. Interment in the St.
Jacobs churchyard. Among those from a distance who attended the funeral were
Mrs. Emma Rea and Mr. and Mrs. Evans Bonar and son Carl of Belmont; Mr. Joe Arn
and sister and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Wolff, of Ellsworth, Ohio; Mr. L. E. Arn, of
Mineral Ridge, Ohio.—
