RECENT DEATHS.
HALL1DAY.
Mrs. Sarah J. Halliday, relict of tLe
la'o John W, Halliday, died at her home
at East Hick ry, Nov. 23, 1010, aged 76
years. Her last illness was of short dura
tion, infirmities incident to age having
doubtless hastened tbe end.
Mrs. Halliday was a daughterof the late
William Patterson, a former resident of
Whig Hill, long since deceased and was
born in Allegheny county, Aug. 0, 1834.
She was twice married, her first husband
being William Lemon, who Inst his life in
tbe civil war in 1805, being killed in one
of tbe last battles in which bis regiment
waa engaged. One son by this marriage,
O. P. Lemon, survives her, and it was In
his family she made ber borne in tho last
two years of her life. Her second mar
riage was with John W. Halliday iu 1807,
whose death recurred some years ago.
One granddaughter, Miss Virginia Halli
day, also survives her. The deceased had
been a consistent member of the M. E.
church for many years and died in the
faith of that church. The funeral was
held on Friday at tbe East Hickory M. E.
church, Rev. O. A. Barnard olliciating,
and the interment was in the cemetery at
that place, beside the remains of her
husband and other kindred.
In this connection the surviving son,
Mr. Lemon, desires to thank the neigh
bors and friends for the many acts of
kindness shown his mother in her last
illness.
WINK KB.
Henry Anton Winker, an aged and re
spected citizen of Green township, passed
away at bis home on German Hill, at i)
o'clock Wednesday morning, Nov. 23,
1010. His death was due to the infirmi
ties of old age and came suddenly and
unexpectedly, as he was in his usual
good health up to the time of his death.
The deceased was boru in the province
of Hanover, Germany, Oct. 5, 1820. He
spent the early years of his life in his na
tive country, folllowing no special occu
pation but spending most of bis time as
a herdsman and farmer. While still a
young man he was attracted by the
glowing reports be beard of America and
early spring of 1840 he set sail for this
country, arriving in Pittsburg several
months later. . Here he remained for
about twelve years, working as a com
mon laborer during this period. In 1840
he was married to Katberine Reg In a Auf
derheide, also a native of Germany,
Shortly after his marriage he again de
cided to engage in his favorite occupation,
that of tilling the soil, and chose for bis
location the place where be died. In the
spring of 1858 be, with several of his
countrymen, moved with their families
to this section and settled in what was
then a vast wilderness. Here, by many
years of diligent labor, he cleared and
put under cultivation the farm upon
which be bad since resided. In the au
tumn of 1893 his wife died, since which
time he aud bis two sons have resided
alone on tbe old homestead. Throughout
bis lifetime lie was much devoted to his
home aud family and seldom was away
from the community in which he resided.
He was the father of six sons and two
daughters, four of tbe eons dying in in
fancy. He is survived by two sons,
Henry and Edward, at home, aud two
daughters, Mrs. S. C. Jensen, of Starr,
and Mrs. Alexander Galmish, of Pleas
antvllle, Pa.
Mr. Wli ker bas been knowu and long
will be remem bored in the community in
which he lived aa a good, honest, upright
citizen, a kind and loving father, and a
sincere and devout christian. Early in
life he joined tbe Lutheran church and
remained firm in this faith to the time of
bis death.
Fuueral services were conducted Fri
day afternoon at bis late home by Rev.
U. J. Reimann, after which his body was
laid to rest beside that of his wife in the
Mt. Ziou Lutheran cemetery,
11LU.M.
Her. nan Blum, son of the late Sebas
tian and Anna Katberine Blum, was born
on Germau Hill, Green township, Forest
County, Pa., October 15, 1840, and died at
bis home, same place, November 25, 1010,
being thus aged 01 years, 1 month and 10
days. About three weeks prior to his
demise he suffered an attack ol pleuro
pneumonia, and although seeming to
have overcome the attack his heart action
was greatly weakened, and bis recupera
tive powers not being suflicient to tide
him over the crisis, he passed away very
peacelully, like one falling asleep, be
tween eight aud uiue o'clock ou the day
above stated.
Mr. Blum passed his whole life ou the
farm aud in the home in which be died.
From youth up he stood high in his com
munity. Thoroughly trustworthy he bad
held every office within the gift of the
people of his township, besides serving a
term as County Commissioner most ac
ceptably, but declining a re election
which he could eauily have had. In
every capacity as citi.m, neighbor,
friend, olllclal bis manly, upright char
acter was evor apparent, aud his sincerity
and absoluto honesty were never doubt
ed In tbe lea-t. His convictions of right
and wrong were unbending and he was
just sod fair to friend aud foe (if be had
one) alike. Surely the community has
lost most heavily in the death of Hernial.
Blum. In his domestic life he was most
happy, and his devotion to and love for
his family were of the tenderest aud
the truest nature, and his solicitude for
the comfort aud happiness of his faithful
wife and children was ever uppermost In
his mind. A communicant member for
many years of Mt. .ion Lutheran church,
he was faithful and consistent to its
teachings to the end.
Filteen years ago Mr. Blum was hap
pily uuited in marriage with Mrs. Emma
Vockroth, who, with one daughter, one
sou, ami one step-son, Lawrence Vock
