The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1882-05-12

Indiana Democrat for having failed to notice
the fact two weeks ago that the first named
journal has been enlarged to the size of the
FREEMAN, while the latter has reached the
I respectable age of twenty-one years. We
have no better friends in the business than
I Brothers ShrOm, of the Ledger, and SAMSON.
/ of the Democrat, both of whom deserve what
they seem to be enjoying, better streak of
I prosperity than usually falls to the lot of
country editors. May it be ever thus.
/ Sister NJ Baptista, of the Community of
/ Sisters of Charity, Altoona, died of cOnsump-
/ ton at the convent in that city on Wednes-
day afternoon of last week, aged 81 years.
/ Her name in the world was Mary Jane Do
ran, and she was one of three members of
the same family who became nuns. Her
/ widowed mother and eldest sister reside in
Altoona, where most OF the children were
! born ard reared. She was model Of excel
/ lence both in the convent and ont of it, and
/ possessed qualities Of mind and heart which
/ greatly endeared her TO all who knew her, as
well in her worldly as in her religious life.
The funeral obsequies were conducted by
Rt Rev Bishop Tuigg May her soul rest
in peace.
On Thursday of last week, Mr.. Thomas
. A. Beale, better known as ''Farmer" Beale,
of Altoona went to where some workmen
were digging a trench on Margaret avenue,
in that citv, for the purpose of giving some
directions in relation to the work, and while
in a stOOping position in the trench, which
was ten feet deep, about three tons of clay
fell in upon him, covering him to the depth
of fully four feet number OF cOlOred
workmen commenced Immediately to rescue,
if possible, the unfortunate man, and al
though they were not very long in reaching
him, he was found to be dead when taken
out. It is supposed that his neck was bro
ken. He was thirty-four years OF age and
I unmarried.
An application WAS made to the general
I government on the 9th of August, 1879 by
our present worthy Burgess, Mr.. G. I. Rob
erts, for fifteen headstones to mark the last
tir,rv Of tF1a Tr1fp
buried in this vicinity. and 10 and behold I
! the headstones came to hand this week and
/ have been placed in position at the graves of
the following named persons In Catholic
/ cemetery-Capt. James Murray, S. A. Chase,
/ J. NJ. Edelblute, T. D. Litzinger, J. NJ. Lit
Finger and A. J. Litzinger. In Congrega-

/ Our thanks are due to the worthy Presi-
dent and Secretary of the Cumberland Val
ley Editorial Association, Hon. Alfred San
derson, of the Shippensburg Chronicle and
All. II. Addams. Esq, of the Carlisle Herald,
FOR an invitation for self and wife, said invi-
tation being also in the nature of a pass over
the Northern Central Railroad from Harris
burg and return, to attend the second annu-
{ ual excursion of said Association on Thurs
/ day and Friday of this week. Among the
, points of interest to be visited are the battle
"
Martinsburg, W. Va, and several other pla-
ces, and we only regret that for sad and suf-
/ fcient reasons apart from the want of time,
ourself and wife have to forego the pleasures
of such trip.
The several county officials have been
doing their level best this week moving their
records and things into the new Court House.
PrOthonOtary Gates and Deputy Zahm have
permanent coating of dust an inch thick
over and about their persons which has been
accumulated in the good work Register and
Recorder Brown has changed the color of his
eyes, which were brown, to blue, while as to
the three KS-Kennedy, of the Treasury
ship; Knkead of the Sheriff's Office and
Davis, Campbell and Hogue, of the KOm-
missiOners' Office-they are wrestling with
the job of examining a twO-inch docket into
three-inch space, and then tell where to
look for it and be sure to find it. But they
all and every one of them expect to have
things in full working order by the end of
the week.
One Of the handsnmest tombstones that
ever came from the hands of our ltistic
friend James Wilkinson has Just been COM
pleted and placed in position at LLOYD cem-
etery to mark the grave of the recently de-
ceased wife Of our tOwnsman, Mr.. Richard
r. TibhOtt. The designs on the stone, which
is paneled, are of the most exquisite charac-
ter, representing a wreath of roses and
neatly executed shield both Of which are in
the highest style. Amid the roses are the
words "Our Mother" and on the face of the
shield is the usual inscription. SO elegant
indeed IS the work as q whole that all who
stopped 10 admire it while on exhibition in
front Of Mr. WilkinsOn's marble manHfacto-
" had no hesitation in pronouncing it one of
the finest jobs Of the kind they had ever
seen. Mr.. Wilkinson has long since estab-
Gshed his reputation as first class work
man, and the tombstone to which we refer
only adds another to the many masterpieces
of equal and greater merit which his well
known skill. industry and good taste have
formed and fashioned.
