John A. Curry died last evening at 6:15 at his residence, No. 19, West Weber avenue, as a result of a complication of diseases, aged 62 years. He had been sick since January 3d and his death was expected for some time.

Mr. Curry was born at Millport and resided in this county all his life. He was married in 1878 to Miss Rhoda Dean, moving to this place in September of the same year and has lived here nearly 32 years.

Mrs. Curry and four children survive: Mrs. Cyrus Wells, of West Reynoldsville; Mrs. Elmer Eiselman, of this city, and Miss Maud and Clare at home.

For a number of years Mr. Curry followed mining and was injured a number of times, the last injury about two years ago, being quite serious.

Mr. Curry enlisted as a private in the Civil war in August, 1862, and served until the close of the war, when he was honorably discharged.

Funeral arrangements will be announced later. Interment will be made in the Rumbarger cemetery by Flegal and Weber.
