Funeral of Daniel Youngs.

The funeral services of Daniel Youngs, of Ann Arbor township, were held at his late residence Saturday morning, Rev. Mr. Fischer, of the Northfield church, officiating. The remains were interred in Fairview cemetery on the Northside. A large number of his old friends and neighbors were present. He was born and raised in Pennsylvania near the line of the Carbon and Lehigh counties, at a small place called Lehigh Valley. He was 79 years and 8 months old. As a young man he drove stage over the mountains to Berlinville. Later he was a chief engineer of an iron furnace in the Lehigh Valley. His home until he carne to Washtenaw county some 18 years ago was in this historical country, where every hill and every precipice has an Indian legend. Forty years ago he married Miss Salome Steffy, of Siegfried's Bridge, Lehigh county. She with two children, Emma, wife of Rodden, of Ann Arbor, and James, and three step-children, Lonis and Frank Moyer, and Sarah, wife of Supervisor Daniel Seyler and Jacob Moyer survive him.
