Elmer Neibch


It is with sorrow we announce the death of Elmer Neibch, son of Mr. & Mrs. George Neibch which occurred at their home on Cherry St., Saturday afternoon.

The young man had not been well all summer, but was only sick eight days with typhoid fever which soon proved fatal on account of a weak heart and low vitality. Only twenty years old, he little dreamed his life work was so nearly ended.

Young Neibch was an employee in the foundry department of the Watt Mining Car Wheel Co. and was a valued and efficient workman well liked by his employers and associates. Ambitious to succeed he was never satisfied until he became one of the best mechanics in his line.

Kind and good to his mother his place will be missed in the home circle as well as at his work where he was always faithful and trusted.

Funeral services were held from the Neibch home Monday afternoon conducted by Rev. P.U. Hawkins of the Second Methodist Church. Interment in Greenmount.

The Junior Order of American Mechanics attended in a body and performed the last said rites to a beloved brother. Mr. Forest Watt had charge of this part of the service which was very impressive.


From the Barnesville Enterprise, August 23, 1906
