Harper died.’ His death was in the nature seriously and even when he was compelled to go to bed, just a week prior to his death, with ‘erysipelas, his most intimate friends were scarcely alarmed. In a few days, however, his condition became hopeless morning, the disease having spread in such a way as to bring intense suffering: ‘William Harper was the sixth child of George and Elizabeth Harper, who were well known residents of Brush valley in the early days. He was born at Spring Bank, Oct. 31st, 1836, and: after receiving an education as good as the schools of that vicinity furnished at that time he spent his early life in pursuits of agriculture and mercantile service. At the breaking out of the war the spirit that had led his hon- ored father into the ranks in 1812 inspired William to go to the front and he enlisted in the 148th P. V., being. a member of Co. A, with which command rhe served three years with distinction. In 1866, with his brothers Jonathan and Jared, he opened a general mercantile house on Spring street, in the old Harper stand next door to the Schofield saddlery. It became one of the most substantial firms in the county and its business covered such a wide scope that everyone of the partners were rich men when they finally decided to go out of business. William Harper continued with the firm until his retire ment and his place was taken by his son- in-law, R. S. Brouse. Since that time he bas led a comparatively retired life. The settling of: the business of Harper Bros. and later of J. A. Harper & Co. kept him. en- gaged for some time and it was largely due to his shrewd business methods that those firms realized so much in their settlements. But the last few vears he had retired alto- gether.’ ley, of Brush valley, who survives him with their two children, Mrs. R. S. Brouse and Miss' Carrie, at home. His brother Jared and sisters Murs. Isabella Royer, of Lamar, and Mrs. Sallie Weaver, of Reb: ershurg. are still living. He was a man who shunned, rather than courted notoriety. He was sound in his views of financial matters and. his advice was often sought. He occupied a position of highest trust in this community and his pasting is regarded with general sadness, since he was in all respects a god and con- scientious man. Services will be conducted at his late residence on Thomas street at 10 o’clock Saturday moming by the. Rev. Thomas Le- van Biekel, of the Reformed church, and interment will be made in the Union cem- etery. I. frou MRS. ABRAM V. MILLER.—The death of Mrs. Nancy Jane Miller at her home. at Pleasant Gap on last Sunday evening was most unexspected. She had been sick and qnite seriously so with the grip but she thought she had recovered entirely and the Saturday night, a week previous to her death, went with a sleighing party to the State College. There she took a heavy cold which developed into pneumonia and after a week's illness caunsad her death. Mrs. Miller was one of the well known Potter family of Penns valley, where she was born, about 68 years ago. Her father was Samuel Potter and during her girlhood the family home was at Potters Bank. She was a most thorough, capable woman and was well known through out the country as a splendid house keeper and a geverous, hostess. Indeed her friends thought she was far too kind for her strength and that her life was one of serv- ice for others. She gave it most cheerful- ly though aud her death is lamentable. She was a zealous member of ‘ the Preshy- terian church and the funeral service yes- terday afternoon was ‘conducted by the Revs. White and Lesher. Interment was made in the Union cemetery at this place. She is survived by her husband, county commissioner Abram V. Miller, her two children, Elizabeth and George, and an adopted. daughter: Elsie. ' Of her father’s family two sisters aud two brothers are living, Mrs. Margaret Alexander, of Rich- mond, Va.; Mrs. Daniel McBride, of Lawrence, Kan.; James, of Illinois, aud.
