HARLACHER.—Mrs. Lucy J. Gray
Harlacher, widow of the late Frank
Harlacher, passed away at her farm
home in Halfmoon valley on Monday,
following a short illness with acute
gastritis.
She was a daughter of Jacob and
Susan Elder Gray and was born on
her father’s farm, near that of her
own, eighty-one years ago, spending
all her girlhood life in that valley.
As a child she attended the Stony
Point school, later going to Dickinson
Seminary, where she spent three years.
Following her marriage to Mr. Har- |
lacher, in February, 1868, she went
to Centre Hall to make her home,
but with her husband and three
children returned to the farm a num-
ber of years ago. Her life since that
time, with the exception of winters
passed at State College and with her
married daughter, Mrs. Mellville, at
Greenwich, Conn., has been spent near
the place of her birth. Being a half-
sister of the five Gray girls, all of
whom married Methodist ministers,
she had been a Methodist from
childhood and a factor in the church of
that community. Surviving her is a
son, Gray, and two daughters, Susan,
at home, and Mrs. Andrew Mellville,
of Greenwich, Conn., as well as one
sister, Mrs. P. E. Sellers, also of Half-
moon valley.
Funeral services were held at her
home at 2:30 o'clock on Wednesday
afternoon, burial being made in Gray’s
cemetery.

SEBRING.—John P. Sebring, who
the past fifteen or more years has
been a well known resident of Belle-
fonte, died quite suddenly at the Cen-
tre County hospital shortly before
seven o’clock on Wednesday morning,
where he had been a patient for a
month or more for treatment.
He was a son of John and Mary A.
Pfoutz Sebring and was born at Jer-
sey Shore on January 3rd, 1847, hence
was in his seventy-eighth year. The
early part of his life was spent at the
home of his birth, where he was in
the mercantile business with his fath-
er, but upwards of forty years ago he
purchased a farm at Centre Line, in
Halfmoon township, where he lived
until coming to Bellefonte. He is sur-
vived by two sons, Dr. John Sebring,
of Bellefonte, and J. Woods Sebring,
of Philadelphia, as well as one sister
and a brother, Mrs. Luther Staver, of
Jersey Shore, and R. M. Sebring, of
Philadelphia.
Private funeral services were held
at the Dr. John Sebring home, on west
Linn street, last evening by Rev. Wil-
son P. Ard, and this morning the re-
mains will be taken to Jersey Shore
for interment.

Bath, wife of Francis M. McBath,
died at the family home at Skelp,

was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
Close, old-time residents of Penns-
valey, and was born on January 7th,
1847, hence was in her 78th year.
She married Francis McBath, of Col--
lege township, but a good part of their
married life had been spent in Blair
county.
In addition to her husband she is
survived by the following children:
William, of Pittsburghy Charles and
Osear, in California; Irvin, of Altoo-
na; Mrs. Alice Etters, of Oak Hall;
Mrs. Minnie Albright, of Tyrone, and

WALTERS.—Henry Walters, a life-

at his home near Shiloh on Tuesday of

ters, of Axe Mann; William, of Zion;

ert, of Shiloh. Burial was made at

morning, which appeared very close to
a freeze, settled all hope of late gar-
den truck, like lima beans, etc., ma-
turing. Much of the corn in the coun-
ty is soft, but many farmers have
started cutting it.
