"PROMINENT FARMER DIED EARLY TODAY
"Alfred Crisler, Near Waldron, Succumbs To Disease Of Months Suffering
"Alfred Crisler, one of the most prominent farmers in the south part of the county, died at his home a mile and a half North of Waldron at 7 o'clock this morning from a complication of diseases with which he had suffered since last April. He was aged sixty-three years, eight months and two days and his death occurred on the farm where he was born.
"The deceased was united in marriage to Mary E. Arnold, of Liberty township, and to the union one son and two daughters were born, the son, Dr. William R. Crisler, surviving. Mrs. Crisler passed away Sept. 4, 1880 (sic). He was united in marriage to Miss Ethel Denton, Aug. 12, 1896, and two children were born to this union, both of whom survive. They are Mrs. Amy E. Apple, whose marriage occurred Tuesday afternoon, and Paris H. Crisler. He also leaves three grandchildren and two brothers and one sister, namely, Mart C., of Rush county; Wood C., of near Oaklandon, and Mrs. John Wrench, of Morristown.
"Mr. Crisler had been ill since last April and a week ago was taken to Methodist hospital at Indianapolis in the hope of restoring his health. However, the treatment availed him nothing and he was returned to his home Monday. He realized that his end was near and insisted on the marriage of his daughter before he should pass away. He was a reliable man of the community and one in whom everybody trusted and held confidence. He was prosperous and kind to everyone and his death removes a community friend. He was an active member of the Mason lodge of Waldron.
"Funeral arrangements have not been completed and Stewart & Fix, undertakers in charge, will make the announcement later."
