February 15, 1895

    In Memoriam.
    ------------
 
    ISAAC FLAGLE was born in Columbiana
  County, Ohio, Sept. 23, 1848.  He was
  united in marriage with Miss CELESTA
  NAZOR, Dec. 24, 1867.  To them were
  born six sons and six daughters, all
  of whom survive him except one son,
  who died in infancy.  He was admitted
  to membership in the English Lutheran
  church of Galion, Ohio, on May 31, 1891.
  He died Feb. 5, 1895, at the age of 46
  years, 5 months and 12 days.
    He had been a railroad employe for
  about fourteen years, the last ten
  years of which time he had been an
  engineer.  He left his house on the
  evening preceding his death, and hauled
  his train to the end of his run which
  was Kent, where he arrived at about six
  o'clock in the morning, and in stepping
  from his own engine, he was struck by
  another, which by him had been unnoticed,
  and in an instant his body was a lifeless,
  mangled mass and his "spirit had returned
  to the God who gave it."
    The funeral services were held at the
  English Lutheran church in the afternoon
  of Feb. 7, conducted by the writer.  The
  text upon which a brief discourse was
  based is Amos 8:9: "I will cause the sun
  to go down at noon, and I will darken the
  earth in the clear day."
    Rev. BADGLEY, of the M. E. church, as
  sisted in the services.  The interment
  took place in Fairview cemetery.  By this
  sad occurrence we are again taught the
  lesson "In the midst of life we are in
  death," and the importance "So to number
  our days as to apply our hearts unto
  wisdom"
          M. COLVER, Pastor.
  Galion, Feb. 8, 1895
