Contributor's notes

The card was found in Ohio. Our archive originally carried two postings of this card — one as "B. Bessler" giving the death date as March 13, 1893, and one as "Bartholomans Bessler" giving March 12, 1893. Both readings are preserved; this record follows the fuller transcription (March 12).
