ALLEN BUCKLEY MILLER
Allen B. Miller, familiarly known as "Bob," died at his father's home in Union township, one mile northwest of Mapleton, at 7:15 o'clock, Thursday evening, May 15, 1913.
Deceased was a son of George and Elizabeth Buckley Miller and was born August 18, 1860, on the farm in Hares Valley, one mile southwest of Mapleton, now owned by B.F. Godard and occupied by J.A. Crownover, being at the time of his death 52 years, 8 months and 27 days. While he was but a mere lad his father purchased and the family moved to the Joshua Jones farm where the remainder of his life was spent. "Bob," was a home lover and while he was of an amiable and congenial disposition his idea of amiability was in having his friends come to his home where they were always made welcome and hospitably entertained. He was clean in character, faithful in friendship, helpful in neighborliness and deemed it a pleasure to render a favor. He kept well posted in the affairs of the day and was a man of discriminating judgement. His native ability and skill in handicraft showed a great deal of intelligence. Though a host of widely diffused would have felt honored by his visits, he seldom went away from home except to render a kindess, but found his chief delight within the quiet of the home circle. He was a good man.
September 24th, of last year he sustained a stroke of paralysis while in the fields in search of cattle and before he was found exposed to inclemency of the weather. From this he never entirely recovered and to this is attributed his death. He was a member of Mapleton Lodge No 468, I.O.O.F.
He is survived by his aged father and by two sisters and two brothers: Mrs. D.E. Parker of Juniata, Jacob H. of Mapleton and Miss Annie and John L. at home.
The remains were interred Sunday afternoon in Mountain View Cemetary, services conducted by Rev. J. Merrill Williams, assisted by Rev. H.B. Ritter, being held at the home. The I.O.O. F. took part in the services at the grave.
