several months' duration. November 27,
1802, Lloyd was born in Tionesta where
bis pareuts resided for about 15 years.
He was a quiet, manly lad, studious in
habits, and In his young manhood gave
promise of making his mark in most any
calling In life. Popular with his asso
ciates and highly esteemed by all who
know him, his early taking away Is sin
cerely regretted In this bis native town.

which the body was taken to Plain Grove,
Lawrence county, and laid to rest beside

YOUNG.
Nancy Young, daughter of Peter
Swltzer, one of tbe early ssttlers of Clar
ion county, was born near Sligo, Novem
ber 9, 1828, and died at tbe home of her
daughter, Mrs. Wm, Soandrett of East
Hickory, September 2, 1011.
In 1848 she was united in marriage with
Robert R. Young, aud for a number ol
years thoy lived In the vicinity of Callens-
burg. At the beginning of civil war,
when the call was made by tbe President
for volunteers, although Bbe understood
what It would mean to ber and the family,
she gave her consent for him to enlist,
and with tbe spirit of tbe true patriot took
upon ber shoulders the support of the
family, and with tbe aid which ber sol
dier husband sent home from bis meager
wages, she kept tbe children together,
giving them all tbe advantages it was
possible for ber to do under tbe circum
stances. After tbe honorable discharge
of ber husband from tbe service of tbe
Government, tbe family lived In several
places in Clarion county, as tbe mills of
these times furnithed employment, un
til they purchased a home in Sigel, where
tbey resided until the death of Mr. Young,
13 years ago, since then making her home
with ber children. Mrs, Young was a
woman of deep religious convictions.
Her parents being members of tbe Lu
theran cburcb she remained in that com
munion until she united with the Pres
byterian church in Sigel, of which she re
mained a consistent member until her
death.

Guilty of Manslaughter.
"Guilty of voluntary manslaughter
with a recommendation to mercy," was
tbe way tbe Jury returned tin verdict In
the trial of Perry Gray, tbe aged veteran
of tbe famous old Bucktail regiment,
charged with the killing of Jack Spence
at bis (Gray's) home near Pleasantvllle in
tbe night of April 7th last. The trial was
held In Frankliu last week, and after six
hours' deliberation the jury reached tbe
above verdict Friday night at 10:38
o'clock. Gray stoutly maintained his
innocence of the crime to the last claiming
that one of two strange men who called
at bis bouse while be and his chum,
Spence, were having a social time, was
responsible for tbe killing. The min
imum penalty for this degree of murder
is three years and the maximum twelve
years. Gray was ably defended by At
torneys Shawkey and Munn of Warren,
who gave their services for almost noth
ing, as the defendant had uo money to put
up for attorney fees and expenses of
bringing witnesses most of whom were
unable to bear tbeir own expense. By
agreement Judge Criswell, before whom
the trial took place, will defer sentence
until next Tuesday. The attorneys do
not expect to move for a new trial, but
hope to net as light a sentence for tbeir
client as possible. Tbe Derrick of Mon
day said: "Gray is completely crushed
by tbe verdict. He was confident ot ac
quittal and waa in no way prepared for
even averdictof voluntary nianslaugbter.
His nerve bas deserted nun and bis con
dition is pitiable. He has slept but little
since Saturday night and at times be
shakes as with palsy. He has a horror of
tbe penitentiary ana declares tbat be wilt
not live a vear after going there. Three
years is tbe least sentence be can receive
