SUDDEN DEATH IN FAIRVIEW

Mr. John Prowel, a highly respectable citizen of Fairview township, died very 
suddenly on Tuesday, the 18th inst., of paralysis of the heart.  HE arose in the 
morning in his usual health, and took a hearty breakfast, intending to go to 
Harrisburg that day to attend the inauguration of Gov. Beaver, but before the 
time to start he fell heavily to the floor, and soon after expired.  He was 
about 70 years of age, and was raised and lived all his life in Fairview 
township.  His funeral will take place on Sunday forenoon, January 23rd.
