By Margaret Leidy Harner from her book One Day at a Time: A Social History of Boyertown, PA.
March 10, 1892: Henry Eagle, from Douglassville, has been found dead by the roadway early this morning, his body frozen stiff.
He had attended a sale in Douglas Township and left for home from there quite late last night. It is supposed that he sat down along the way to rest and fell asleep. It had been a cold and stormy evening, and the Coroner’s Jury found that he froze to death.
He leaves a widow and seven children.
Sunny, with a high of 81 and low of 60 degrees. Sunny in the morning, clear overnight.
Kudos to Zack! In these troubled times, the world could use many more people like him. And kudos to Boyertown for providing the kind of atmosphere where Zack (and others like him) can grove and thrive. Finally, is the book mentioned still available? I'd like to buy one as I remember all of the people mentioned.
Yes, Mark. The books are available at Studio B Art Gallery and the Building a Better Boyertown office.Â
