Henry B. Myers, one of the oldest and wealthiest farmers of East Donegal township, was found dead in bed on Thursday, by his daughter, Elizabeth. About 5:30 that morning Miss Myers went to her father's room to call him, and noticing something peculiar in his position, approached the bed and found that life was extinct. The deceased had been as well as most men of his age, and there was no intimation of his demise when he retired Wednesday night.

Myers, of East Donegal township, and Miss Elizabeth Myers, at home, survive. His wife died four years ago. (The Semi-Weekly New Era - April 2, 1898)
