JOHN ALTENBURG.

Another of the early residents of Portage county passed away at his home in Plover, last Saturday morning, Oct. 25th, at 9 o'clock. He was taken ill about the 8th inst., but was confined to his bed only one week, the final summons coming sooner than was expected. John Altenburg was born in Montgomery county, N. Y., Aug. 12th, 1810, and was therefore 85 years of his age. He was married at his native home, to Miss Isabelle Arthur, Feb. 7th, 1837. Mr. Altenburg came west in 1854, buying the farm on which he died, and his family followed in 1856, residing here ever since. Mrs. Altenburg died on the 24th of October, 1888. They leave ten children, Bragg, Worth and Roscoe, of Plover; Isiah, Scott and Mrs. Whitaker, of Buena Vista; Daniel, of Wausau; John and George of Dancy and James of this city. Uncle John Altenburg had been a member of the M. E. church for 25 years, and was a most honorable man, respected throughout the whole county. His word was as good as a bond at all times, and the confidence of his friends was never misplaced or abused. The world is better for the presence of men such as he. The funeral took place from the M. E. church at Plover, Monday afternoon, at 1:30 o'clock, Rev. Mr. Carmicheal officiating, and was largely attended, people being present from all arts of the county, including a number of this city. The pallbearers were all old friends and neighbors of the deceased, Moses Pauriea, Moses Steward, John Gilman, John McGown, Joseph Gilman and Chas.. Smith.
