Ellsworth - August 24 – Daniel D.
Arner died last Thursday evening at his home one mile east of the village
of infirmities incident to advanced years. Deceased was the oldest native
resident, having been born in Ellsworth April 9, 1820, consequently aged at the
time of his death 90 years, four months and nine days. For many years he
was largely engaged in farming and stock raising but misfortune overtook him
about 20 years ago and he lost most of his property. He did not permit
this to discourage him and “Uncle Dan” was one of the most cheerful and
entertaining man in this locality. He possessed a great fund of
information regarding the early settlement of Ellsworth and nothing pleased him
more than to tell of the early days. His wife passed away quite a number
of years since. He is survived by three sons, D. L. Arner of Rock Creek,
C. B. Arner of Canfield and Dr. W. P. Arner of Nutwood.
Funeral services held Sunday afternoon from the M. E. Church were conducted by

Eli T. Arner died at the
county infirmary Monday morning of infirmities incident to advanced age.
Deceased was the youngest son of Philip Arner, one of the first settlers of
Ellsworth township, and was born May 3, 1825, consequently had passed his 87th
birthday. His wife died a few months ago. Two daughters survive
him, Mrs. Ella Ralstop of Detroit, Mich., and Mrs.
Jessie Miller of Missouri, Mont. Mr. Arner was for years one of the most
extensive farmers and stock dealers in Mahoning county and owned many acres of
land. But reverses came, largely through endorsing notes for others, and
finally his entire fortune was swept away. Last winter Mr. Arner and his
wife became helpless through sickness and they were taken to the infirmary
where they were given every attention possible to make their last days
comfortable. The funeral of Mr. Arner was held Wednesday at the
infirmary, Rev. M. G. Jerrow, pastor of the Ellsworth
Presbyterian church, conducting the services. The remains were taken to
Ellsworth and laid to rest in the village cemetery.

Mahoning
Dispatch,
Mrs. Anna H. Arner, wife
of Eli T. Arner died in the county infirmary last Saturday forenoon from the
effects of a stroke of paralysis sustained in the morning. Mrs. Arner was
born in Ellsworth township 86 years ago, her maiden name being Harklerode. Her husband at one time was one of the
largest land owners in Mahoning county, but reverses came and his property was
swept away. For some time the aged couple had been physically unable to
care for themselves and being without means were on Jan. 22 taken in the county
infirmary. Both old people were given the best possible care in the
infirmary and Mr. Arner shows considerable improvement despite the fact that he
is nearly 88 years of age and is able to get about the building with
assistance. Two daughters residing in Montana and Indiana are unable to
attend their mother’s funeral on account of sickness. A granddaughter,
Miss Yates, of Montana arrived Wednesday night. She did much in a
financial way for quite a number of years for her aged ancestors. Mrs.
Arner’s funeral will be held at the infirmary Friday afternoon at 1 o’clock, in
charge of Rev. M. C. Jerrow pastor of the Ellsworth
Presbyterian church, of which the deceased was a member. The choir of the
same church will sing. The remains will be laid to rest in the family lot
in the Ellsworth cemetery.

ARNER,
Anna H. nee HARKLERODE
Mahoning
Dispatch,
Salem - Sincere regret was expressed here on account of the death
in the infirmary at Canfield of Mrs. Eli Arner, aged 86 and recently sent there
with her husband who is 87 and was once one of the wealthiest farmers in this
section of the state, their farm and home having been in Ellsworth Township.
Some money was raised here for the old couple’s benefit and it was the
intention to provide them another and more comfortable abode and there was talk
the old lady should be removed to the Old Ladies’ Home that by the will of Miss
Sallie Tod, has received such a large cash
bequest. But it appears no one is taken in there unless a certain amount
is paid or secured, it not being so much a charity as some good folks had been
induced to believe.
Ellsworth – Quite a number of relatives and friends from
here attended the funeral of Mrs. Eli Arner at the County Infirmary last Friday
afternoon. The remains were brought here for burial.
