Additional: New Knoxville, March 27—H.E. Eversman, age 55, owner of The Eversman Meat Market here, died suddenly of coronary thrombosis shortly after 6 o'clock last evening as he was walking from his automobile to his pig lot in the southwest part of the village. Eversman's lifeless body was found by family members at 7 o'clock last night when they became alarmed at his failure to return home and began an investigation. He had closed his store at 6 o'clock and had taken a bucket of shelled corn in his truck to the feeding lot. When he was found he was lying on the ground near the fence which he apparently had leaned against as he felt the heart attack coming on. Dr. E.P. Sparks was called and it was his opinion that Eversman had been dead for about an hour. Word of his death was heard with deep regret by his many friends. In 1919 Mr. Eversman and F.H. Kuck bought the meat market from H.W. Eversman. They continued as partners in the meat, grocery and fruit business until 1934 when Mr. Eversman bought out Mr. Kuck's interest. Since then he and his sons Earl, and Robert had operated the store which has been known for its high grade merchandise. Before entering in business for himself Mr. Eversman was a clerk in the B.E. Cook general store and had gained valuable experience in merchandising there. Herman Edward Eversman was born October 20, 1884 on a farm a half mile south of New Knoxville in Shelby county. He was the son of the late William and Sophia Wierwille Eversman. On April 27, 1909 he married Lydia Warner who is left to mourn his death. In addition to his wife he is survived by six children, Earl, Robert, and Myron Eversman, Mrs. Elmer (Norma) Kuck, Agnes and Larue Eversman, all of New Knoxville. There are one brother and two sisters, A.E. Eversman, Mrs. B.E. (Anna) Cook. Mrs. Theodore W. Kuck, all of New Knoxville. A wide circle of friends thoughout this district also survive. Mr. Eversman was a lifelong member of the Evangelical Reformed church. He was an active member of the Civic Club. Funeral services are arranged for Friday afternoon at 1:45 o'clock at his late residence and at 2 o'clock at the Evangelical Reformed church with the Rev. O. B. Moor officiating.
