held at the Fred Decker home on the branch
on Thursday. Mr. R. was accompanied by
his son Bruce, a chip off the old block.
Frederick Myers and John Fry, having in-
vested in a steam threshing outfit, started
out this week to assist in separating some of
the grain from the chaff.
With favorable weather the annual harvest
home picnic to be held at the Baileyville
park next Saturday will be unusually well
attended. The committee who have the mat-
ter in charge are sparing no time or labor in
putting the track in first class order for trot-
ters and bicycles. Everybody is invited.
The scramble for our little post office is at
an end and a good acquisition has been made
to the Swallow party from our Republican
ranks. On Tuesday J. G. Hess was officially
notified of his appointment and accordingly
filed the usual documents for his commis-
sion in order that he can draw the salary that
a Democratic incumbent has been lifting for
the last six months. Mr. Miller has been one
of the best officials the office ever had, always
kind and obliging and we doubt if there can
be any improvement in the distribution of
our mails, although this is not Mr. Hess’
first attempt in that line. He has been tried
and not found wanting.
Mrs. Hannah Fox, wife of G. A. Jacobs,
of Shingletown, died suddenly at the home
of her son-in-law, John Leech, near Penna
Furnace, where she was visiting. Upon her
arrival the daughter and grand children set
about to make her visit as pleasant as pos-
sible. Before retiring on the night of the
15th, ice cream was served of which the old
lady ate heartily ; retiring shortly after 10
o’clock. Owing to her having. heart trouble
her daughter went to her room soon after-
wards and was horror stricken to find her
mother cold in death. Undertaker Weber,
of Boalshurg, was sent for and the next day
conveyed the corpse to her home in Shingle-
town, where the whole community looked
upon her asa maternal friend and counsellor.
Deceased was born in Berks county 72 years
ago. She moved, with her father John Fox,
to near Shingletown, on the Branch, while
quite young. February 17th, 1845, she mar-
ried George Armstrong Jacobs. This union
was blessed with six children: Dr. W. A.
Jacobs, of Centre Hall ; Luther, of Illinois;
John, of Shingletown; Mrs. Resides, of
Bellefonte ; Mrs. Sowers, of State College ;
Mrs. John Leech, of Graysville. They, to-
gether with a grief stricken husband and
two sisters, Mrs. Ramsels, Mary and John
Fox, of Shingletown, mourn the sudden
death of this old mother in Israel. Inter-
ment was made in the Boalsburg cemetery on
the 17th at 10a. m. Rev. Lesher, of whose
church she was a member, officiated. A.
Felty, M.- Hess, A. Lytle, John Kuhn, O.
Thomas and Wm. Hoover were the pall
bearers. Services were held in the Lutheran
church at Boalsburg.

who died from cramps of the whole body
while bathing in the Susquehanna river at

but of no avail, and
WHEREAS, Heister C. Hoy, was a faithful
member of this Camp, welcomed by all his
brothers, always at his post of duty, ready
with hand and purse to help, when help was
needed. The ones who knew him best loved
him most. No soul ever passed to the great
beyond that was more faithful than his.

sad and unexpected loss, and that we desire
to place on record our appreciation of his
faithfulness, and be it

in the annals of this Camp be set apart with
these resolutions inscribed thereon and that
the charter of this Camp be draped in mourn-
ing.

stamp placed thereon. The penalty for ne-
glect or refusal to comply with the require-
ments of the said Act, is not to exceed one
hundred dollars, at the discretion of the
