At 8.16 Wednesday evening, May 190(1, at the home of hor daughter, Mri. Dr. W. B. Alexander, on Grant street' Mrs. F. K. Arnold calmly and peacefully fell asleep never to awaken to earth 1; scenes again. The transition wa s gradual and peaceful that her heart bau PPHMrH hftftt.lnir hfnrA fha Ifitr nnntj around the bedside fully realized that the silken thread had been broken and that ber spirit had winged its flight to that "bourne from whence no traveler e'er returns." It was befitting that a life so gentle and klud as Mrs. Arnold's bad been should slip out of this world hikuuuv abl Uf;lt. OUU UKU llveQ a peace with ber neighbors and frlen and the world in general, and it doubtful If there Is another person I this place that has more warm friend among he people in all walks of life than had Mrs. Arnold. After dissolu tion bad taken plaee the expression Of her face was as culm and serene as one tn a sweot and undisturbed sleep. She had been in bed six weeks, but did not suffer any pain. Weakness from old age and heart trouble was cause of her demise. Elizabeth C6i.d!ander Arnold, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Goodlander, deceased, was born In Lycoming county, Pa., October 10, 1821, and was 77 years, 7 months and 1 day old when she de parted from this life. She was united In marriage with Frederick K. Arnold May 9, 1848, and the day of ber demise was the 68th anniversary of her wedding day. Mr. and Mrs. Arnold resided Id Luthersburg a number of years, moving to Reynoldsville In 1874. Nine years ago Mr. Arnold crossed the border line into the Eternal Land. Three child ren, one son and two daughters, James B. Arnold, of Philadelphia, Mrs. Clare E. Alexander and Miss Isabel R. Arnold, of this plHoe, survive Mrs. Arnold. Mrs. Arnold resided on Main street, the second house above THE ' STAR office, a number of years. Last fall she sold this property and made ber home with Mrs. Alexander. . "Ma," as she was familiarly kikwn and spoken of by many townspeople, was a devoted wife, loving mother and kind neighbor. She had a beautiful and symmetrical character, ever and always the same. While Mrs. Arnold did nut think the end was so near, yet she assured her loved ones that s..c sf ready to go wh-n tbe Master called! she was perfee'ly reconciled and sub missive to tho L n'd's will. Early In life Mrs. Arnold joined the English Lutheran church and nover took her membership from that de nomination. After moving to Royn oldsville she and her husband attended and liberally supported tho Presby terian church, U.eve baiiig no English Lutheran church !tero, but they never ; became members of that church. The floral tribute was orofuso and beautiful, and was an evidonco of tbe hifrh Pstftnm III whieli rleeensed Wflfl held.
