Tho subject of this sketch, George
Washington Dungau, was ono of a
family of seven children born to the
latoMr.ond Mrs. Uoujamin Dungan,
native Phlladelphlans who moved to
Monroe county, this state, where Mr.
Dungan first sow the light of day on
tho 2nd of May, 1819. Tho father of
George Dungan followed tho business
of shoomaklng and In later years also
that of hatter; tho former trado was
learned by Mr. Dungan following tho
early years of school llfo. He was loss
than twenty-ono years of ogevlicn ho
bid good byo to homo and friends nnd
journeyed to Philadelphia, whero for
n tlmo ho was u sort of general utility
man In a dally newspaper ollloe in
Gcrmantown. His objeetlvo point, haw
over, was to becomo n physician,' so a
little whilo later wo find him reading
medlclno with Dr. Wulker, and then in
1870 ho graduatos from tho Hahncmau
Medical Collego, Philadelphia. For
live years ho followed this profession
when in 18S1 tlio M. E. conference in
session ntPhlladolphlt, licensed him
to preach. His first chargo was at
Tannersville, Monroe county, where ho
was stationed for tliroo years; then lie
filled a charge at Richmond, North
ampton county, for three years, follow
ing which fer three more yoars ho
filled a charge nt Tromont, Schuylkill
county; nnd ho isnowfllllng his fourth
consccutlvo yearly nppolntinont hero
In this city. Rev. Dungan. is marrlod
to Emma, a daughtor of William Mo-
Donough, also of Monroe county.
Thoy havo two children, Robert, who
Is Iti Baltimore, Mil., and JHss Mary,
who is at home.
During the past year Rev. O. W
Dungau has had charge of the M. E.
church at Packertou also. Ho Is a
hard, earnest, sincere worker, and is a
preacher who "has something to say
and says it right wheu ho does say It."
During his pastorate tho M. E. church
has been enlarged, remodeled, Improv
ed and beautified, until lt is safo to
say that it is ono of tho prettiest and
co.lcst edifices In this town or alley.
Tho church building nt Packerton also I
has been greatly improved and remod-
eled through his exertions. Besides
his church work Rev. Dungan has suc
ceeded la establishing a freo reading
room in the M. E. church..
HU reappointment to tho charge
hero at oach conference for four con
secutive years, something altogether
unusual shows that both himself nnd
family aro fully appreciated by Ills
congregation. Tho conference limits
tho reappointment of pastors to ono
chargo for a greater length of time
than flvo years, and it is the expressed
wish of his congregation that wheu
conference reassembles it will reap
point him to tho chargo here.

HARD NUTS TO CRAGK
I don't merely make these liberal offers, but I earrv them out
to the letter. Do you want a Jloller Upright Piano Organ 1
which othtr agents sell from $125, to$150 dollars, 1 will sell
you all you want for $85, on easy payments. A Cornett Up
right Piano for $250'dollars that other agents ask 350. I can
get almost any make Organ or Pinno that is made, and I will
hero say go and get prices elsewhere, bring the Catalogue with
you and I will guarantee thnt 1 can save jau from $25 to $75 on
an Organ and irom $100 to $200 dollars on a Piano. Uon't be
afraid to call and see me., I won't wmry the life out of you to
sell, ncr will I put an instrument in the house, unlets you want
me to do so. I will sell you the Lntvrence 7-octave Piano Organ
for $85, now, go to Allentown nnd see if you ran buy one lor
less than $125.
Do you want a Standard Sewing ilachine, that other agents
sell at $50. My price is $30. The Davis at $25, $30 and 85.
The THiite nnd Domestic at $30. The American and TThite
Cottage $25. These are eye openers, but Aaron is in it and to
stay. I want the people to know that when they pay over $35
lor a Sewing ilachine it is money thrown away.
