MARRIED IN NEW YORK o1TY, AN OLD CITIZEN DEAD, TR Te
Mr. Harry K. Condo, of Millhelm, and Miss
Penrl Runkle, of Centre Hall, Married,
Mr. Harry Kline Condo, of Mill
heim, and Miss Pearl Runkle, of Cen-
tre Hall, were united in wedlock on
Wednesday, July 4th in New York
City.
The marriage was a quietly arranged
affair, and but few of the intimate
friends of the happy couple were let
into the secret, the announcement of
which created a great surprise among
the many friends of the bride and
groom,
Miss Peari was visiting with rela-
tives in York, Pa, for several weeks.
Her fiance followed her to that place,
and together they started for New
York City to have the knot tied which
should make them one,
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. R. A. SBoyder, pastor of the Ger-
man Reformed church, New York, at
the church parsonage, on Wednesday
evening, July 4th, at 6.39 o'clock. Aft-
er a tour of sight seeing Mr, and Mrs.
Condo left the city and spent their
time taking in the attractions of Phil
adelphia, Camden, and Atlantic City,
arriving at Centre Hall on Friday
evening last, and then proceeding to
the home of the groom's parents at
Millheim, where they have since been
located.
The bride is one of Centre Hall's
bright and accomplished young ladies,
and is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs,
Wm. H. Runkle, Jr., who so efficient-
ly preside over our town’s famous hos-
telry, the Centre Hall House. She is
an accomplished musician and her
husband can well feel proud in having
chosen one so well fiited to share his
joys and cares through life. Mr, Con-
do is the son of former Sheriff and
Mrs. John P. Condo, of Millheim.
He is an energetic young man, and has
been his father’s assistant in the large
mercantile business at Millbeim, and
Death Ends the Patient Sufferings of Mrs,
Michael Decker.
The death of Mrs. Decker, the esti-
mable wife of Mr. Michael Decker oc-
curred at her home about two miles
east of Centre Hall, on Monday morn-
ing, at about nine o'clock, after many
months of patient suffering from vari-
ous complaints,
The immediate cause of Mrs. Deck-
er's death was due to a stroke of paral-
ysis. About four weeks ago she had a
paralytic stroke, from which she was
confined to her bed for nearly three
weeks, She showed great improve-
ment, and for the past week was able
to be up and around until Monday
morning, when she suffered another
stroke, and at once was rendered un-
conscious, and never regained con-
sciousness, dying soon after. For sev-
eral years Mrs. Decker has beeu a pa-
tient sufferer from various complaints,
which at times compelled her to take
to her bed for weeks.
Mrs. Decker's age was nearly 68
years. Bhe was born in Nippenose
valley, Lycoming county in 1837, her
maiden name was Elizabeth Stahl, be-
ing the daughter of Jacob Stahl, dec'd,
of that valley, She was one of a fami-
ly of ten children, but early in life,
with her sister, Mrs. Joseph Gilliland,
of New Bloomfield, Pa., her home
was made with an aunt, Mrs, Wasson,
at Potters Mills, until she became the
wife of Mr. Decker.
Mrs. Decker was the mother of six
