Joseph Harpham, of Algansee Township, only brother of Wm. Harpham of this city, died at his
residence in Algansee Saturday last at 6 p.m., of lung fever having been sick less than a week,
and considered dangerously so, for only a few hours previous to his death. The funeral services
were held yesterday at the Warren school-house in Algansee and despite the extreme cold the
remains were followed to their resting place by a large concourse of friends.
The services were conducted by Rev. S. J. Colgan of Hall's Corner's taking for his text the 35th
verse of the 13th chapter of St. Mark. Mr. Harpham was born Nov. 8, 1840, and for the past
twenty years has been an active resident of Algansee Township, where his death will be
severaly felt: he has resided on his present farm for 19 years. He leaves a wife and six children
to mourn his loss, all of whom will be comforted by his last words, which were, "I am going
to meet my mother; meet me in Heaven."
