On November 22, 1922, Franklin Pierce Miller was called home at his home near Liberty Center at the age of 69 years and 5 months. He was born in Lehigh County, Penn., and at the age of 15 years moved with his parents to Ohio where he spent the remainder of his life. He was united in marriage with Hester Danby on Christmas Day 1875, with whom he lived until the summons came, to lay her armor down in the month of November, leaving him one daughter.

On October 2, 1881, he married Helen Weakley. Together they traveled life’s highway until the reaper’s relentless hand was laid upon him, leaving to sorrow a widow, three daughters, two sons, twelve grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, one sister, three brothers, and many other relatives and friends.

Kindness in his home, to his friends and neighbors, hospitable, social and cheerfulness were the daily attributes of his character, and when we think of his life of honesty and uprightness we can surely say: A good man has gone to rest.

FRANK P. MILLER fell from his hay mow on his farm a mile northwest of town and met instant death. Mr. Miller had attended the Swartzlander sale on the John A. Wright farm and on returning home had gone to the barn to do the chores. It was several hours before the body was discovered by Ora Ellis, son of Mrs. C. B. Hosler, who came from Napoleon on the 9 o’clock train and on going home noticed, as he passed the Miller farm, that the electric lights were on in the barn and made investigation. Mr. Miller was in his 70th year.
