Conneautville, Aug. 11, --- Justin L. Baker, and well known and practically a lifelong resident of this section, died at the home of George Nelson, in Summit township, at about 9 o’clock Saturday morning, following an illness of about two weeks, although in failing health for some time past.

        Mr. Baker, who was in his 84th year, was born in Ohio, and came to this section early in life, and remained to make his home here. He was married to Miss Eliza Skeels, of Hayfield township, whose death occurred about fourteen years ago. He had made farming his life work, as long as his health permitted, and his many years of residence in the community had given him a wide acquaintance and many friendships. A brother James D. Baker, of Summerhill township, and a sister, Mrs. A. F. Ammon, of Buffalo, N.Y., are the nearest surviving relatives.

        Funeral services will be held at the Hervey White residence, Conneautville, at 3 o’clock, Monday afternoon, in charge of Rev. A. M. Lockwood, of this place, a former pastor of the M.E. Church. Burial will be in Conneautville cemetery.
