J. Weber. She was born in Dempsytown,
Venango county, Pa., June 5th, 1872, and
was united in marriage to John W. Winters,
September 17th, 1889, by Rev. J. W. Schlock-
enhauf, and joined the M. E. church, of
Kreamerville, Feb. 4th, 1894. Mrs. Winters
died very suddenly. She was one of those
very good natured young women that never
fail to be greatly loved by all. By her death,
the beloved hushand has lost a faithful
wife and the Methodist church at Kreamer-
ville a faithful worker in all its various
church duties. She lived a commend-
able christian life and was always
hopeful. The funeral was large and was
conducted by Revs. Faus, Mumma and
Stover. As a tribute to her memory and
friendship, Mrs. W. J. Carlin and Mrs. Scott
Kerstetter made a most beautiful floral
wreath which was placed on her coftin and

If the weather continues favorable this
week the largest grain crop in twenty years,
in this section of the State, will be safely
barned and stacked. Indeed many farmers
will be obliged to thresh the grain in order
to make room for the oats which promises to
be well filled but short in straw. The heavy
rains of the last few days are causing the
corn and later crops to spring up like magic.
Although Harris Bloom is one of our big
menjand solid farmers yet he was not strong
enough to hold his team that took a notion
to run off this week. He was cultivating
corn when by some means one of them be-
came unbridled and in a jiffy both were tear-
ing full speed across the corn field with
Harris far in the rear. The horses could get
no farther than the deep cut of the railroad
and there they stuck. His little daughter,
with much presence of mind, flagged the
coming train or there might have been a
serious wreck.

for our hoys on last Saturday. They flew

In Memoriam.
The sudden death of Susan, wife of Wm.
J. Bair, at 9:30 o'clock on Sunday evening,
the 18th inst., came very unexpectedly to
her many friends. The announcement of
her death, throughout our town the follow-
ing morning, cast a deep gloom over us
all, and everybody was eagerly inquiring
what was the cause of it. knowing that she
and her husband had been visiting at several
places during the day, and had partaken of a
hearty supper at the home of Mrs. Hiram
Wert, a sister of Mr. Bair. Her sudden death
was due to paralysis of the heart, induced by
asthmatic troubles, all the result of several
severe attacks of la grippe within a year.
She was born in Penns valley fifty-two
years ago, and lived there until the time of
her marriage, thirty years ago, since which
time she lived in or near Rebersburg. To
her were born two sons and two daughters,
all of whom survive the mother and with a
heart-broken father share the loss the family
sustains.
Mrs. Bair was humble, unselfish, and ex-
ceedingly kind to such as needed help ; she
was a true wife, a fond mother, a loyal
friend and neighbor, these traits of character
caused her to be loved and honored by all
who knew her, of her it could be truly said,
‘None knew thee but to love thee.”
We speak no words of fulsome praise when
we say that her death leaves a void in our
community that is sorely felt.
Her funeral, on Wednesday morning, was
attended by a large circle of sorrowing
friends and neighbors. The services were
conducted by her pastor, Rev. Mumma, of
the Lutheran church, assisted by several
a distance who attended the obsequies, we
noticed her daughter Mrs. Jennie Wolf, of
St. Louis; her sister-in-law, Mrs. Jettie
Stover, of Pittshurg ; and her son George
of Williamsport, who brought with him, as
a token of filial love to a dear mother, a
beautiful floral tribute in the form of an
anchor. Several other beautiful tributes
were noticeable.
The 1emains of Mrs. Bair are laid away in
the Union cemetery, there to await the
