GEORGE EPPLEY DEAD
WAS WELL KNOWN FARMER FOR MANY YEARS
Suffered With Gangrene - Lived at Boiling Springs
George Eppley, for many years one of Cumberland county's best known and successful farmers, died at his home on Walnut street (sic), Boiling Springs, Sunday morning, at 2.10 o'clock. Had he lived until August, next, Mr. Eppley would have been 89 years of age. For four weeks he was bedfast, suffering with gangrene in the foot, and several weeks ago a toe was amputated. His age was against him, and he grew weaker and weaker until the end. Mr. Eppley was a type of the sturdy citizenship of the county of Cumberland. A kind and loving father, industrious and kind hearted, he will be greatly missed. Notwithstanding his great age, he was very active, until the ravages of the disease above mentioned, compelled him to relinquish many of the things he as able to do on the farm of his son, near Boiling Springs, and in which he took great delight. Early in life he learned the milling business and followed the occupation at the well known Henderson mills. Later he became a farmer and followed it for nearly half a century. For thirty six years he resided on the farm where his son, James, the dairyman, now lives. Mr. Eppley was a member of the Lutheran church of Boiling Springs. The following children survive: James M., the dairyman; Richard D., of Johnstown; Reuben, of Minneapolis, Minn.; Gertrude and Mary at home, and Mrs. Frank Moist, of Lewistown, Pa. An aged brother, William, resides at Mechanicsburg. His funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon at two thirty, services at the house, interment at Ashland, Carlisle. Friends and relatives are invited without further notice.
