Enck, William H. - 1881

Wm. H. Enck, Undertaker, Main Street, Lititz, Pa.
~ The Lititz Record, 23-Sept-1881, Page 3, Column 1

A Good Idea.--
Mr. William H. Enck, the undertaker, keeps a record of funerals attended by him, with the name, age, disease, place of death and burial of deceased.  During the past twenty-three months Mr. Enck has borne forty-nine persons to their final resting place, and, singular as it is, the greatest number of deaths were caused by diphtheria.
