Orris.—Another old soldier has re- sponded to the last roll call in the person of Samuel H. Orris, of Milesburg, who died on Wednesday as the result of a stroke of paralysis which he suffered on Monday. Deceased was born in Ickesburg, Perry county, July 19th, 1835. He came to Centre county when a young man and on August 16th, 1862, he enlisted as a pri- vate in company H, 148th regiment Penn- sylvania volunteers. He served with ex- ceptional gallantry during his brief term of service until May 3rd, 1863, at the bat- tle of Chancellorsville where he was wounded three times. The last shot from the enemy struck him on the lower jaw, knocking out all his teeth and cut- ting off part of his tongue. He was left on the field for dead by his comrades and lay there forty-eight hours, without even a drink of water, when he was dis- covered and taken to the hospital. Mirac- ulous as it may seem he recovered, but was incapacitated for further service and was discharged on July 16th, 1863. He returned to Centre county and shortly afterwards took up his residence in Milesburg where he has lived ever since. He was a member of the Methodist church and an upright, honorable citizen in every way. On Jan. 1st, 1867, he was united in marriage to Miss Mary Isabelle Barnhart who died on June 1st, 1892. Surviving him, however, are the following children: Georse P., of Bellwood; Mrs. E. E. Davis, Bellefonte; Mrs. E. L. Walker, East Orange, N. J.; Mrs. James Campbell, Ty- rone; Misses Elizabeth and Madge at home. The funeral will be held from his late home at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. Rev. R. S. Oyler will officiate at the services and burial will be made at Curtin. i I DuNLAP.—~Mrs. Margaret F. Dunlap, wife of county commissioner John L. Dunlap, died at her home near Sunny- side, in Spring township, at 10.15 o'clock on Monday morning. Two weeks ago today she was taken ill and her ailment was at first diagnosed as an attack of pleurisy. Instead of the disease respond- ing to treatment she grew worse and about the middle of last week developed an acute attack of pneumonia. Every- thing possible was done to combat the disease but without avail and death end- ed her sufferings at the time above stated. Mrs. Dunlap’s maiden name was Mar- garet Shutt and she was born near Jack- sonville on August 3rd, 1859, thus being past fifty-one years of age. She was united in marriage to Mr. Dunlap on Oc- tober 9th, 1879. The first four years of their married life were spent at Pine Grove Mills and Rock and in 1883 they moved to Bellefonte and this place and vicinity has been their home ever since. Mrs. Dunlap was a kind, neighborly woman, a good wife and mother and will be greatly missed in her home as well as by her :nany friends. In addition to her husband she is survived by the following children: Sarah, Jesse, Newton, Mary, Harry, Catharine, Margaret and Winifred. She also leaves one sister, Mrs. J. C. Brown, of Potters Mills; and two broth- ers, F. W. and S. W. Shutt, of Welling- ton, Ohio. Dr. Ambrose M. Schmidt, as- sisted by Rev. John Hewitt, officiated at the funeral services which were held at her late home at ten o'clock yesterday morning, burial being made in the Union cemetery. I I BLACK.—Mrs. Nancy Black died at the home of her son-in-law, Frank Swabb, at Pine Grove Mills, last Saturday morning, after a few days illness with heart trou- ble. Just before Christmas last year she fell and broke her hip, from which injury she was confined to her bed all winter. During the summer she recovered and was able to be around as usual until a few days prior to her death. She was born in Huntingdon county over seventy-two years ago but most of her life was spent in Ferguson township. Ever since girlhood she was a member of the Presbyterian church and was a good, christian woman. Her husband died a number of years ago but surviving her are two daughters, Mrs. Effie Au- man, of Altoona, and Mrs. Frank Swabb, of Pine Grove Mills. She also leaves one brother and two sisters, namely: James Leech, of Pittsburg; Anna, of Minneso- ta, and Mary, of Sandusky, Ohio. Rev. J. S. Shultz officiated at the funeral which was held on Monday afternoon, burial being made in the Graysville cem- etery. I I Houtz.—Mrs. Mary Houtz, relict of the late Henry Houtz, died at her home near Linden Hall last Friday evening of heart trouble. Her illness dates back to a railroad accident which she was in sev- eral years ago and in which she had a narrow escape. Her maiden name was Mary Kline and she was born and raised in Harris township, and most of her life was spent in the vicinity of Linden Hall, where she was highly esteemed for her generous hospitality and many good and kind deeds among her neighbors. In ear- ly life she joined the Lutheran church and has since lived a consistent christian life. Her husband died about five years ago but surviving her are the following children: Harry, of Ohio; Elmer, of Boaisburg; Mrs. James Ross, Mrs. Mary Cunningham, Mrs. William Houser and Mrs. Samuel Gingerich, all of Linden Hall. The funeral was held at ten o'clock on Tuesday morning, Rev. J. I. Stone- cypher officiating and burial being made in the Boalsburg cemetery. GREsS.—Mrs. Emma Jane Gress, wife of Rev. Daniel Gress, of Centre Hall, died quite suddenly on Tuesday morning. About two weeks ago she contracted the whooping cough but it was a mild case and she was around the house as usual. Tuesday morning she got up feeling quite well and her husband went out to the woods for a day's hunt. Shortly after wards Mrs. Gress was stricken with ap- plexy and died within an hour. Her maiden name was Miss Emma Jane Black and she was born at Adams- burg, Westmoreland county, on April 27th, 1870. She was united in marriage to Rev. Gress on September 2nd, 1903, and shortly afterwards they located at Centre Hall where Rev. Gress was called as pastor of the Reformed church, and that place had been her home ever since. She was a woman of great refinement of character, great kind- ness and sympathy for any one in need, and one greatly loved by every member of her husband's congregation as well as all who knew her. Her death is unusually sad because in addition to her husband she leaves three little girls, the eldest of whom is about six years old. She is also survived by one brother and two sisters. ‘| The funeral services were held at her late home at 9 o'clock on Wednesday morning. They were in charge of Rev. Donat, of Aaronsburg, who was assisted by all the ministers in Centre Hall. Fol: lowing the services the remains were brought to Béllefonte by conveyance and taken on the 1.07 p. m. train to her old home in Adamsburg where burial was made yesterday. 1 I Lucas.—Mrs. Edward Lucas died on Saturday night at the home of her par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Thomas, on Halfmoon hill. Mrs. Lucas came to Belle- fonte from her Pittsburg home two weeks ago today, having just recovered from a bad attack of typhoid pneumonia. After her arrival in‘ Bellefonte she suffered a relapse and her death followed. Deceased was born in this place and was twenty-six years old. Since her marriage to Mr. Lucas she has made her home in Pittsburg. In addition to her husband she is survived by a little daugh- ter, Catharine, her parents, two brothers and one sister, namely: Frank and George, and Mre. Boyd Nolan. She was a member of the United Brethren church and Rev. C. W. Winey had charge of the funeral services which were held at her parent's home at two o'clock on Wednes- day afternoon, burial being made in the Union cemetery. Avutoist HAS MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.— On Wednesday afternoon George T. Bush took out his Ford runabout for the first time. He was down the state road to- wards Mil rg and got along fairly well until his return trip. He came up the grade to the lime kilns on low speed and when he struck the top of the hill he threw on his high speed without reduc- ing his power. The result was the ma- chine gave a spurt of speed and Mr. Bush lost control of same. It zigzagged from one side of the road to the other for a distance of perhaps one hundred feet then shot through the fence and down over the bank, a distance of thirty feet or more. In going over the bank the machine went right through the top of a small tree, breaking and splitting the branches but doing no damage to the trunk of the tree. Mr. Bush, as soon as he realized that the car was going over the bank, crouched down in his seat and clung to the steering wheel. He is authority for the statement that the machine turned over sidewise once or twice and when it finally landed it was right side up with Mr. Bush in his seat. Of course the ma- chine was badly wrecked but fortunately the driver escaped with a few bruises and scratches and torn clothing. ere Gm New Crus OFFICERS—At the annual meeting of the Tyrone Country club last Thursday, held at their club house at Pennsylvania Furnace, officers for the ensuing year were elected and upon the list are the names of quite a number of old residents of Bellefonte and Centre county.

Mr. Zettle is putting down the foundation walls for his new residence on the main road to the railroad station—a very desirable location. Turkeys don't seem to be very plentiful in our valley. I guess we will be forced to fall back on a small piece of sausage for Thanksgiving dinner. All our merchants report a satisfactory business during last month. Commercial agents stopping off here say that traffic on the road is fair, orders quite numerous but small. Our hunters are becoming disgusted to tramp through the woodsand in mud puddles all day, and then return in the evening almost empty banded. They say is far from a joke, more like labor lost. J. H.

Kennelley, ' cooper of the south side of town, which is now called the “Hill.” On September 7th, 1843,she was married to Michael Nofsker, an able and skillful mechanic of his day, who died twenty-seven years { ago.
