DEATH'S DOINGS.
Those Who Have Crossed to the Other Shore.

JOHN NIPPLE.

  Mr. John Nipple died at his residence on Moore street, at 6 o'clock 
on the morning of the 7th inst.  He had been in impaired health for a 
year or more, but was still able to follow his occupation, that of 
teamster, until quite recently.  About a week previous to his death he 
was attacked with malaria and suffered from chills and fevers, but his 
friends were hopeful of his recovery and his sudden demise was unlooked 
for.  He was a member of the 110th Reg. Pa. Vols., and carried the 
wounds of battle upon his person.  He was buried Saturday morning by 
Geo. Simpson Post No. 44, G.A.R., of which organization he was an 
active member.
