home in that place Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock from hardening of the 
arteries of the heart.  He had attained the age of 69 years.

The deceased appeared to be in his usual health during the day and after dinner 
he decorated his residence for the parade which took place in Littlestown in the 
afternoon.  He then complained of feeling ill and laid down too rest.  A few 
minutes later he was found in an unconscious condition by his daughter, death 
following shortly afterwards.  Mr. Bollinger had been a sufferer from heart 
trouble for a number of years.

years ago he was married to Miss Emma Keith, a daughter of the late Jacob and
