A Good Man Taken.

Edward Emmack, for many years a resident of this county and highly esteemed by a large circle of friends died at eight o’clock Thursday evening lat, March 1st, at the home of his son John in Sherman Township where the closing years of his long and useful life had been happily spent, notwithstanding the gradual failing of health which began about three years ago. He had attained the ripe age of 75 years, 3 months and 12 days.

Mr. Emmack was a native of Pennsylvania, born Nov. 1, 1830, but the earlier years of his life, up to young manhood were spent in Muskingum County, Ohio, where on the 15th of February, 1855, he was married to Miss Rebecca Trussler who with the three children born to them, survive him-Charles H. and John V. Emmack and Mrs. Anna M. Haifleigh, all of whom reside in Sherman Township, and were near their venerable father to cheer, comfort and aid during his long illness, and upon whom the widowed mother can now lean in her great bereavement.

Funeral services were held in the home at one o’clock Saturday, conducted by Rev. Mr. Young, a circuit preacher of the United Brethren Church, and for some time a pastor of the church at Metz. The interment was in the cemetery near Metz. ~ Newspaper name unknown, 1906.
