Alrich Harbers died last Saturday at six o'clock a.m. after an illness of two months. He constantly grew weaker until death came as a great relief to end his sufferings. Mr. Harbers was much respected by the community and all express sorrow over the circumstances connected with his death. He leaves a widow and four grown children in his former place of residence in Bakemoor, Ostfriesland, Germany. The remains were interred in the cemetery of Wellsburg Sunday afternoon, Rev. John Theilken officiating.

The personal effects of the late A. Harbers will be sold at public auction next Saturday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. All are invited to attend and make this a lively sale, as the proceeds are to be used to defray the funeral expenses, and the remainder to be sent to the widow in Germany.
