LAID IN IIER GRAVE.—IT becomes
our painful duty to chronicle the smi
demise of one of our most esteet uiefi
old ladies. The sickle of death cut sluul
the useTul and examplary life of Mrs.
Margaret Stover, who had resided v\iih
her daughter, Mrs. Amelia Uhich, of
this place, for the past few yeais. De
ceased, alter having patiently and with
christian resignation suffered during
the greater part of a year finally met
the grim messenger on Sunday a
bout noon, when she sank Into that
peacrfu'slevp, from which there is no
waking in this world. Though for sev
eral weeks p.ist mother Stover's death
was expected daily, when at last her
depart ure to a better world had become
a fact it cast a deep gloom ot sorrow
and regret upon her relatives as well as
mum this community, where site was
respected and beloved as a kind and
gentle mother, a pure, Christian woman
and a good-hearted sympathetic neigh
bor, whose memory will ever be held
dear by all who knew her.
Mrs. Stover was the daughter of BU-
Uer and Margaret Klinesmith, and was
born in Hartley township, Union Co.,
July 23d, ISIS, and was one of a family
of twelve children, having had six
brothers and five sisters. She was bap
tized in her infancy by Rev. Geo.Helm,
and confirmed in bet youth by llov. J.
G. Anspaeh, and has been a faithful
member of the Lutheran church evtr
since. 6s years ago, when a girl ten
years of age she came to this county
and April 7lh, 1539 she was married to
David Stover, of Haines township.
They spent the greatest part of their
married life on their farm in Penn
township, now owned by H. E. Duck.
About fifteen years ago Mr. Stover pre
ceded his wife into eternity, having
shortly before moved into the house a
long ttie turnpike, about a mile west of
Millheiui. They had five children, all
of whom are living and married. They
are Mrs. Sarah Frank and Mrs. Annie
Frankeuberger, Penn township, Mrs.
Amelia Ulrich, of Miilheim, John Sto
ver, of Painter, Mirtlin Co., Pa., and
Beujamiu Stover, residiug in the state
of Indiana.
Yesterday forenoon at 10 o'clock, a
large gathering of relatives and neigh
bors assembled at the residence of the
decedent's son-iu-law, Geo. Ulrich, on
Main street, to pay their last tribute of
respect to the dead. The remains were
then taken to their last resting place in
Fairview Cemetery, there to sleep until
the trump of God shall sound and the
dead in Christ shall rise aud be with
the Lord forever. The funeral cortege
consisted of a loug column of mourn
ers. After the solemn 'burial service
Rev. M. L. Deitzler, her pastor,preach
ed a very able sermon in the Lutheran
church on Revelation XXI—3, 4, the
text haying been chosen by the deceased
herself several weeks before her death.
The choir sang some appropriate hymns.
The following bit of history,fiu which
Mrs. Stover's grandfather, auuts and
father are the principal actors, is taken
from John B. Linn's anna's of Buffalo
Valley, and£contains some very inter
esting information about the decedent's
ancestors. It says that on
Friday, July 14th, Baltzer Klinesmith,
who resided then on George Sholtz's land,
lately owned by John Byler, on the Jseeond
road south of llreisbach's church leading to
Jenkins'inills,aud Inula small clearing upon
it,was killed. The versions of this story are
quite numerous. The one in the "History
of the West Branch," was furnished by
George A; Snyder, Esquire, deceased. The
dates I get from the widow's pension papers,
and an old certificate, in which it is further
stated that he was a private in Captain
Joseph Green's company, Lieutenant John
Cryder, in Colonel Kelly's battalion. My
version is from one who often heard Mrs.
Chambers tell it herself. She, with her
father and sister went out in the field to
work. He, seeing some squirrels, sent
Baltzer, junior, back for his gun. Mean
while, the Indians came along and captured
the old man and the two girls, Elizabeth
ami Catherine.
Just where the road winds around the
hill, above Hcinbach's blacksmith shop, on
the road to New Berlin they killed Kline
smith. Mrs. Deisbach, the Judge's mother,
pointed out the place. She helped carry his
body down and they buried it in tbo l>reis
bach church-yard.
The Idians then made their way to the
spring, north of New Berlin, where they
left the girls in charge of an old man of
their party, and went down Dry valley.
After a little while it began to rain, and
the Indian motioned the girls to gather
brush to cover the fimir bag. He laid down
under a tree, with the tomahawk under his
head. The girls, in passing with brush,
worked it gradually from under him as
he dozed, Elizabeth picked up the toma
hawk,Jand made a motion to her sister to
run. She 'then sank it into the old
man's head. The old man yelled fear
fully, and the girls ran. By this "time
the Indians were on their return, and heard
the old man yell. Thev pursued the girls
ami tired on Catherine, just as she was
springing over a fallen tree. The ball en
tered below the right shoulder-blade and
came out at her side. She had the scars
until her dying days, as large as a half
dollar. She rolled herself under a tree
and the ludians passed over her, in the pur
suit of her sister. Elizabeth being active
reached Beatty's harvest-field, The men
ran to their rifles and pursued the Indians.
AVhen they came pretty near Catherine, one
of the men supfiosing an Indian in ambush,
was about tiring, when she pulled oft" her a
proti and waved it. They foutid her mueh
weakened from loss of blood, hut she soon
recovered. l'hllip Pontius, still living,
told me that the Indians were goiug to
Beattv's and George Bote, who was a lame
man, hut great on a halloo, frightened them
laek, by hallooing to an imaginary compa
ny to surround the hlaek rebels. Kline
smith's widow drew a pension as late as
1819, at New Berlin. "Elizabeth married
John Itoal, moved to French creek, near
MeadviHe first, and, in 1343, was still living
in Ohio or Indiana,her husband being one of
those restless spisits, who fancy that the
hind is over-crowded, when the population
exceeds one to every ten square miles, and
she from her courage and energy, Wing an
excellent second to a man exposed to the
perils of frontier life." — Manvscriptby <J. //.
Snyder.

COMPOUND EXTRACT

The importance of purifying the blood can
not be overestimated, for without pure blood
you cannot enjoy good health.
At Oils season nearly every one needs a
good medicine to purify, vitalize, and enrich
the blood, and we ask you to try Hood's
Da/s 111 io f Sarsaparilla. It strengthens
r 6CU II at builds up the system,
creates an appetite, and tones the digestion,
while It eradicates disease. The peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation
of tho vegetable remedies used give to
Hood's Sarsaparilla jiecul-Iteolf
tar curative powers. No ■ llOvll
other medicine has such a record of wonderful
cures. If you have made up your mind to
buy Hood's Sarsaparilla do not be induced to
take any other instead. It is a Peculiar
Medicine, and is worthy your confidence.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is sold by all druggists.
