Oliver ALSPACH, one of the county's pioneer citizens, passed away Thursday afternoon shortly before 5 o'clock, after an illness extending over a period of many months. Death was due to Gangrene and complications due to old age.

Oliver Alspach was born in Fairfield County, Ohio, in September, 1834, and at an early age came to Fulton County settling on the farm south of the County Farm, where he lived practically all his life. He was united in marriage with Miss Minerva PENCE in 1854, and it was on the old home place that the couple raised the family born to them, Mrs. Alspach having died fifteen years ago. He was remarried several years ago and the wife remains with the children of the first marriage to mourn their loss. The children are Mrs. George CLOUD, Mrs. Charles RICHARDSON and Mrs. James CLEMANS, Macy; Mrs. Scott WHITMER, Kokomo; Charles ALSPACH and Mrs. Arthur BRUBAKER, this city, and Jay ALSPACH, Peru. Eight years ago Mr. Alspach removed from the home place to a farm near Birmingham, but after living there for about a year he sold the place and moved to Mt. Zion, where he has since resided.

The funeral will be held at the Mt. Zion church Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. S. C. NORRIS of Culver to have charge of the services. Burial will be made at Mt. Zion.
