— Christian Gilliom, oldest resident of Berne, Indiana, passed away at his home there on April 5 at the age of 92 years. One of the experiences of his life bordering on the miraculous occurred about four years ago when his sight was restored through an operation after he had been blind for more than one year. He was born in Wayne county, Ohio, on August 23, 1844. Funeral services were held at the Menonnite [sic] church of Berne.
