Prominent and Well Known Resident of County Passes Away After Brief Illness

E. M. Brink died last week at his home in this city from an attack of acute indigestion. The news came as a shock to most people as there were few who knew that he was ill. He was attacked the day preceding his death but had improved somewhat and his recovery was looked for. Ezekiel M. Brink was born in Bradford county, Pa., June 1, 1841, and came to Cedar county in 1856 when a boy of fifteen years. He had lived in the county a little more than fifty years and was known throughout its borders. His early life was spent in farming, but later he studied law and was admitted to the bar. -- Advertiser
