Samuel Bush Found Dead.
Samuel Bush, one of the old and well
known residents of this vicinity, died
suddenly near his home Monday fore
noon of this week. Mr. Bush has lived
for many years near the banks of Tioues
ta creek nearly opposite the "blue nar
rows," about two miles below Nebraska,
lie left home in the morning about 7
o'clock to go to the post office and store
at Nebraska, where he made a few pur
chases, and sometime between 8 mid 9
o'clock started to return home. This is
about the last seen of uim un il his life
less budy was found in the road about a
half mile from his borne. Not returning
whuu the family thought he ought to, his
son William started after him shortly af
ter the dinner hour, and was shocked to
find him as above stated. He had been
carrying a couple of bundles, one of
which he still had under his arm, the oth
er apparently rolling out of his grasp and
laid near his body. There was not the
least evidence of a struggle. Assistance
was called, and Esquire Leon Waison of
Nebras'K a ordered the body taken to the
house. Co oner Morrow was notified
and went to view the remains.but did not
deem it proper to hold an inquest under
all the circumstances.
The decersed has for a number of
years been failing in hralth and l.ai suf
fered numerous attacks of heart trouble.
Whilo at the store he felt a touch ot it and
remarked that 'that will be the death of
me some time." Mr. Bush was aged
about 77 years, and has lived the greater
portion of his life in this county, along
Tionesta creek. He was a worker in his
day and a man of great endurance. He
was a peaceable, well-disposed citizen
aud u kind neighbor. Besides his wife,
who happened to be away on a visit in
Clarion county at the time oi his unex
pected death, he 'eaves a large family of
children, all grown, to mourn his deaih.
The funeral takes place to-day, and his
remains will be buried in Riverside cem
etery, this place.
Mr. Bush's brother, Abrm, a resident
of Paint township, Clarion county, died
on the first of this month, aged nearly 61
years.
Rosa Maltes, Dead.
Miss Rosa Mattes, aged 20 years, 3
months and 21 days, died at the home of
her sisior, Mrs. R. C. Heath, Starr, Pa.,
Monday, Feb., 12, 1900, at 4 o.clock p. in.
The deceased was born in Germany, but
came with the family of her widowed
mother to this country aud settled In
Marion, Kansas, where her mother mar
ried E. T. Purdy, a former Forest coun
ty citizen. About thr e years ago the
deceased came from the west and had
made her home with her mater's lamily.
Her illness dated from last summer, but
she had kept up until w ithin a short
timoofher death, which was caused by
consumption. She was a bright, intelli
gent young lady, of a cheerful disposi
tion and popular witli all who knew her,
aud hor death is mourned by a large cir
cle of friends in the community in which
she made her homo. The funeral will be
hold at 2 o'clock to-ilay, the Interment
being in the Zuendel chiiruh-yai'd.
Once moio Death's entered our domain,
And we are -.-ailed to mourn again ;
This ime a sister, young aud gay,
Has from us been called away.
Just In her youth when life was sweet,
She has been called Inr Lord to meet ;
Although prepared to do God's will,
Yet we would like to keep her still.
How sad the hearts of father, mother,
And also of her lovtng brothers,
When they shall hear that she's gone
home,
Her steps on earth no more to roam.
What bliss to know she loarned to pray
Some days before she dassed away ;
So having Iearnod her God to love,
We know she's safe with Him above.
Although it almost breaks the heart
To think that now we have to part,
We know that thou art happier far
Where nothing cau thy pleasure mar.
