GEOEGE W. SUPLEE DEAD.
Again we are called upon to chroni
cle the death of another of our re
spected and esteemed citizens. It
rarely happens that one issue of a
paper contains the intelligence of the
departure of three of the prominent
residents of a town. George W. Sup
lee the subject of this article, died at
his residence on West Main street,
Tuesday night, at half past eleven
o'clock. He was born in Chester
county, Pa., July 27, 1815, and hence
at the time of bis death was aged
seventy years, two months and sixteen
days. Mr. Suplee resided in the above
named county until he was nine years
of age, when his parents moved to
Philadelphia, and shortly afterwards
to Montgomery county, where he con
tinued to reside until he had arrived
at the age of thirty-three years, at
which time he purchased a farm in
Anthony township, Montour county,
upon which he lived eight years. This
he sold, and he purchased one in Madi
son township, this county, at which
place he resided until April, 1886,
when he moved to Bloomsburg, He
was married April 4, 1853, to Miss
Sarah Ilamer, of Montgomery Co. who
with Antoinette, wife of Cyrus Demott
of Madison township, Gertrude, wife
of Albert Girton of Hemlock town
ship, Horace G. of Bloomsburg, and
Annie, wife of J. B. Nuss of Mainville,
are left to survive him.
He has for a long time been a
patient sufferer from sciatica rheuma
tism, and for about one and a half
years his illness has been very severe,
so much so as to alarm his friends.
During the past four or five weeks he
has been unable to leave his home,
lie was a consistant member of the
Baptist church, and although he at
tended and contributed to the support
of the one in this place, he continued
to hold his membership in the one at
White Hall. Mr. Suplee was an hon
est, upright, conscientious man, and
by his consistent life exemplified the
religion he professed. His word was
as good as his bond, and in all his
transactions with his fellow men lived
the teachings of the golden rule.
He was a man who will be missed,
not only by his family, but by the
church, and society in general. The
funeral will be held at his late resi
dence Saturday morning, at 10:30
o'clock, and be in charge of Rev. G.
E. Weeks and Rev. H. C. Mure, of
White Hall. The interment will be
in the Rosemont Cemetery.

One of the Talented Young Ladies ol this
Place, Weds a Plymouth Gentleman.
Wednesday evening Oct. 9th, 1895,
one of the prettiest weddings ever
solemnized in this town took place at
the Methodist Episcopal Church on
Third Street. The contracting parties
were Miss Harriet II, daughter of
Mrs. Clarissa Peacock, of Fifth Street,
and Mr. H. Russel Williams of Ply
mouth. The ceremony was perform
ed by Rev. B. C, Connor and was
witnessed by a very large audience.
Exactly at six o'clock, the time ap
pointed, the party led by the ushers
entered the church and passed up the
aisle to the wedding march which was
beautifully executed by Mrs. Fred
Holmes. Upon the arrival of the
bride and her party at the altar they
were met by the groom and his best
man who had entered by the other
aisle, when the beautiful marriage
service with the ring of the Methodist
Episcopal church was performed. The
bride was given away by her brother,
C. C. Peacock, Esq. The maid of
honor was Mabel Peacock, niece of
the bride; best man Dr. Herbert
Williams, of Philadelphia, brother of
the groom ; bridesmaids Miss Bertha
Williams, sister of the croom, of
Tamaqua j Miss Elizabeth Straw, of
Wilkes Barre ; Miss Lettie Seligman,
of Mahanoy City, and Miss Elizabeth
Low, of Lime Ridge ; and the pretty
little flower girls were Clarissa and
Helen Peacock, nieces of the bride.
Messrs. Edward Jenkins, of Plymouth,
Frank Ikeler, Frank Purnel and Robt.
Hartman, of this town, were the
gentlemanly ushers.
The bride was becomingly attired
in a beautiful white silk, and carried a
bunch of beautiful white roses. The
attendants were also handsomely
dressed, which with the floral decora
tions of the church presented a scene
seldom witnessed. One of the decora
tions which deserves special mention,
and which was admired very much for
the artistic manner in which it was ar
ranged was two hearts and an arrow
of Mowers.
After the ceremony had been per
formed the wedding party repaired to
the home of the bride on Fifth street
where a reception was held, and
elegant refreshments served.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams left on the
late train on the D. L. & W. Rail
Road, and upon their return will
reside at Plymouth. The presents
received were not only numerous but
unusually beautiful and costly. Among
the guests present were : Mrs. E. L,
Williams, mother of the groom, Mrs.
H. D. Smith, and Miss Effie M.
Williams, sisters of the groom, of
tamaqua ; Mrs. Jos. Seligman, Dr. J.

City ; Miss Harrington, Philadelphia ;
