The Garrett Journal, Mar. 10 (Albert J. King)
Death is sad at any time, even when it comes and take away the old, who have lived their Three score and ten,” but when it comes and takes away the young man, just starting out in life, with a young wife of only a few years of married life, it is doubly sad. Yet such was fully realized when train No. 8, on Monday morning, brought home the mangled remains of Albert J. King, son of Emanuel B. King of near Deer Park. Deceased came to his untimely end on March the 5th, inst, at Yellow Creek Bridge, No. 55, on the Cleveland and Pittsburgh railroad, in Ohio by the bridge giving away, and deceased and five others were hurled into eternity. Funeral services were held in the Lutheran church on Monday at 3 p.m. by the Pastor Rev. E. Manges from the appropriate text 1st Samuel 20 chap, 3rd verse Truly as the Lord liveth an soul liveth there is but a step between me and death. This Godly man giving a touching and pathetic account of the friendship of David and Johathan that called forth the memorable word of the text, and he applied it with such force on this sad occasion that tears came from eyes unused to week from the large audience present who had come on this inclement day to pay the last tribute of respect to a young man they had known from infancy. Deceased leaves a young wife and son about one year old. The widow is a daughter of Mr. Warnick, one of our respected citizens. Words seem to fail us when we most need them: to express our sympathy to the bereaved wife, orphaned and fatherless child, but knowing well from an earthly standpoint that she has a kind father, mother, and two brothers who will ever shelter her from a selfish world. But to that One “Who sticketh closer than a brother” we would commend her in this the saddest hour of her young life. And to the father, mother, brothers and sisters of this eldest son cut down in the strength of his young manhood words fail us in expressing our heartfelt sympathy, but we hope your loss will be his eternal gain and if so you may all meet in a home beyond the stars. Albert J. King was born Sept. 28th, 1879 and died March the 5th, 1904, aged 24 years 6 months and 7 days, and was tenderly laid to rest in the Deer Park cemetery under management of Geo. J. Walter. The following gentlemen all close friends of deceased acting as pall-bearers vis: James W. Walter, William Jankey, Joseph J. McRobie, Philip Hess, Wilfred Chadderton, and C. R. Savage.
The church alter was tastefully decorated with potted flowers by the young ladies who had been school mates of Mrs. King, and the music so appropriate to the occasion, was rendered by Mrs. Droege, assisted by the young ladies choir of this church.
