FOUND DEAD IN BED.
Mrs, Elizabeth Miller Expires at the Home
of Her Sister at Tusseyville.
The sudden and unexpected death of
Mrs. Elizabeth Miller occurred at the
home of her sister, Mrs. Jacob Strohm,
at Tusseyville, to whom she was pay-
ing a visit, on last Friday night or ear-
ly Saturday morning. Her death was
quiet and pesceful, and the family was
not aware of it until morning, when
she was found dead in bed. The cause
of her demise is attributed to heart dis-
ease and paralysis.
Mrs. Miller's death was sudden and
unexpected, and was a great shock to
her many friends. She had retired
with the family in ber usual state of
health, and there was not the slight-
est premonition that Death’s hand
should touch her brow in the later
hours, It is supposed she had been
dead some hours before being found.
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.
Mrs. Miller's maiden name was Eliz-
abeth Heltman, and she was born
Lamar township, Clinton county.
She was united in marriage to David
Reesman, father of J. A. of
Centre Hall, in 1851, being his second
wife. One son was the result of this
union, the Charles Reesman,
who died about one year ago at Plain-
field, Ill. wid-
ow. Her second marriage occurred in
, to Wm. Miller, of Mackeyville,
Clinton county. The family removed

GREGG-MILLER,
A Pretty Wedding Takes Place at the Home
of Col. Andrew Gregg.
A very pretty and quiet wedding
was solemnized last Tuesday at the
residence of Col. Andrew Gregg, a few
miles above town, when his daughter,
Miss Mame Gregg was united in mar-
riage to Mr. Roland Miller, of Phila-
delphia. Rev. Faus, of the Methodist
church performed the ceremony.
The bride is an accomplished and
refined young lady, and since the
death of her mother she has efficient-
ly borne the main responsibility of the
household.
Mr. Miller is originally from Pleas-
ant Gap, where his parents resided.
He is now engaged in the painting
business and located at Philadelphia,
where he and his bride have to
make their future home,
Immediately after the ceremony the
happy couple were tendered with sere.

BAD ACCIDENT.
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. The pole
struck Ham Shreckengast on the arm
badly bruising his hand and wrist.
Joshua T. Potter tells a
narrow escape the pole having grazed
the rim of his hat.
