| Obituary | The announcement of the very sudden death of Samuel VanBLARICUM, at his home six miles southwest of the city, was heard with universal sorrow by the large circle of friends which he so deservedly won by an honorable existence of more than 45 years in the vicinity where he died.
On Thursday evening Uncle Sammy, as he was known to everybody, came home from Peru and, in a few hours, was stricken down with hemorrhage of the lungs of such an aggravated character that no relief could be given him and he died Saturday morning.
Deceased was born in Ohio 73 years ago and moved to Indiana in 1845. At the age of 24 he was married to the noble wife and mother who preceded him in death by six years, and to them thirteen children were born, seven of whom survive.
He was widely known as a christian father of the strictest integrity and most lofty ideas of morality, all of which was attested by the immense outpouring of people to attend his funeral which was preached by Rev. Wm. WILDERMUTH, at Salem church, Monday afternoon. He had been a faithful christian for 51 years and was therefore amply prepared for the great transformation awaiting all men.Rochester Sentinel, June 24, 1891 |
