Vincent B., Mrs. Luther Stacey, Mrs. Raymond Sorrick, Williamsburg; 
Mrs. J. M. Frank of Hollidaysburg; John W., of Tyrone; Grace and

in Germany.  She was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church and of 
the Sabbath school and service will be conducted by her pastor, Dr. C. 
T. Dunning Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the church.
