Death fo George Bender, of New Holland.
George Bender, aged seventy, seven, a well-known resident of New Holland, died suddenly on Thursday morning at eight o'clock at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Milton Groff, in that borough. Deceased was in his usual good health when he arose, but complained of feeling unwell after eating breakfast. A physician was summoned, but the aged man expired soon after his arrival, the cause of his demise being ascribed to heart failure.

Doner, of Smoketown; Annie, widow of Samuel Patterson, of Philadelphia; Alice, wife of Milton Groff, of New Holland; and Frances, wife of David Myers, of Farmersville. An only sister, Miss, Maria, of Lititz, also survives.

Bender, was unfortunate this week in having the thumb of the same hand caught in the planing machinery. As his is still suffering from his first injury, and is an old man, this is quite a misfortune to him.
