Death Of John A. Seyler

On last Tuesday morningoccurred the death of John A. Seyler, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Seyler, of this city. He died of consumption and was 20 years of age. His trouble began in a cold contracted at the World 's Fair last spring. At that time he was considered strong and well and there were no premonitions of the dread disease which destroyed his young life. He was in the employ of the Wheel Chair Co., and remained there all summer. Aftér closing his engagement, he went south and everything possible was done to enable him to recover his health, but the disease was too firmly seated to be shaken off and death resulted. He was a young man of excellent character and habits and well thought of by all who knew him. He graduated from the high school in the class of 1893 and had already given evidence of first class business ability. His untimely death is a deep affliction to his family and numerous friends. The funeral services were held yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock from the family residence on E. Liberty St.
