The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1882-02-10

! -Mr. David Rowland, an old bachelor who
( formerly resided in this place aud is we'll
/ known to most Of our citizens. died verv sud
/ denly about noon on Thursday last at the
/ residence OF his niece by marriage, Mrs Ma
/ ~ DAVIS, IN Blackliek township. There is a
/ DIVERSITY OF opinion as to the cause Of his de-
mise one story being that he choked to death
! on piece OF meat while eating his dinner,
| ana another story, and probably the right
I one, Is that he was suddenly stricken 5v ap-
! oplexy and fell dead after rising from the
/ table His age was SO years, and he will be
! remembered by the older inhabitants as the
! man who meandered into the woods nearly a
half century ago, and had the whole neigh
I DorhOod hunting for him on the presumption
( that he was lost, which NAV or NAV not have
I been correct.
Here it is again Our story about the
pear that came down a tree IN Allegheny
/ township three or four weeks ago and caused
four men with axes in their hands to colt up
and git on double quick, appeared in the
/ Clearheld Republican and Bellefonte Watch
nan last week duly credited to the Tyrone
I Herald, which the week previous had worked
! toYer in another and perhaps better shape
/ Stlll we don't grOwl about that as the whole
I story was mere figmeat Of tine brain any
/ now, having been gotten up by way of
/ JOKE, aIJnOugh neither Ourseif, our inform
ant, nor the party of brave hunters who went
! from LOrettO to capture the ''varmint," had
any doubt at the time about its accuracy.
/ we are sorry to learn that the wife five

Allegheny township, are all afflicted with

recently desOlated our own until then happy
household, but we have the assurance Of our
friend and patron, Mr.. Slas DOnahOe, who
I IS brother Of Mrs. Hall, that there is good
reason to hope for the recovery of each and
all the sufferers. Miss Josephine Durbin
and two or three children of her brother MI
James DuTbin, of Munster, are also said TO

Philip II. Jones. of Blacklick township
who was found guilty at the last term of our
I county court OF aggravated assault and bat

/ wards, was sentenced by Judge Dean, on
/ wednesday last, to pay a fine of 5000 and

months. ''You are not" said his Honor in
the remarks which cOmprehended his decis-

a man guiltleSs of blame in this affair You
took the law into your own hands and there
fore you must suffer-" We are sorry for
Philip, as he is a sober, industrious and hon

priSOnment cuTtailed and his angry passions
brought into subiectiOn hereafter
Our worthy friend DR.. NJ r. 3. Creery,
met with an accident on Tuesday evening
last while returning home from Carroltown
IN a sleigh with his wife and one or two of
his children, which, although not at all Sc
rlous, IS quite painful, and will probably
contine him to the house for the balance of
the week at least The horse he was driving
very balky one, by the way, got swamped-
in snow drift and the Doctor got out of
sleigh for the purpose of extracting him.
which be was in the act of doing when the
animal gave sudden Iurch and struck him
on the left ankle with one of his hOOfs. bruis
ing it very badly, but fortunately breaking
no bones. 1t was not dental but an acci-
dental operation, from the effects of which
we hone our friend will soon recover.
Its not very far otf-the spring election
a couple Of weeks, say. Yet we have heard
OF only one candidate who wants to serve the
dear people IN public capacity. The Office
of Burgess, with its munffcent salary OF So
a year Is not the most enticiug that could be
conJured up, but Mr. Ed. Humphrey the
present incumbent, we are assured would
accept it again and never think Of Cesar or
ms ism. But it is not of Mr.. Humphrey
that we desire to talk There is a youur
man in town who wants to be Constable Of
the West ward, and his name is Dan FberIv.
lie viii be supported by both Democrats and
Republicans, will be elected and will make
a good officer. The question which at this
momeutOus crisis ought to suggest itself to
the average voter is-'fAre YOU registered 2''
