She was aged about 64 years. The funeral took place on lowing Tuesday morning, interment being made in the Reesman family plot in the Centre Hall cemetery.

Berlous Misshap at Hecln Fark, on the 4th, ton Boy, The festivities at Hecla Park, on the 4th, were saddened by a painful acel- dent towards evening, by which a 14- year old son of Thomas Dunkle had his cheek bruised and jaw fractured in two places. The following are the par- ticulars : A balloon ascension to take place about 4 p. m., which was held in place by two ropes fastened to two stout poles one inside the high board fence the other on the roadside without. A large crowd stood near watching the inflation of the balloon with hot air, At the moment a two-horse buggy came along and the top caught the one rope, the force pulled up the inside pole, some 10 inches in diameter, and it swung into the crowd, lodging on the board fence, luckily, for had it gone over, several persons in the crowd would have been killed by the heavy stigk. It struck young Dunkle on the side of the face with the above painful result, Fortunately Dr. present and attended to the badly in- jured lad, and the Dr. informs us the boy is getting along finely.
