The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1890-10-22

tion was held at the cheerful home Of
the newly welded pair upon their re-
turn from a short tour east, which was
attended by a goodly number of our
townsfolk, the intimate friends of the
bride, which all no doubt enjoyed i'm.
mensely. Mr.. Magee, who has many
acquaintance in this vicinity, is one
pf the solid men Of Warren, where he
stands high as a citizen, and promi.
nent 10 the affairs of that stirring city.
Mrs. Magee's circle of friends here is
limited only by the number of her ac'
9uaintances. To both the REPUBLICAN
extends happiest congratulations and
best wishes for a long, joyous and
prosperous life.
We just learned that Mrs. Mary
L. Bleakley, Of Franklin, has given to
the Odd Fellows here the lot adjoining
the cemetery, on which the beautiful
grove stands. 1t contains about an
acre and one half and is beautifully
situated. The present-for we call it
such--is msgnanimous on the part Of
Mrs. b. and her husband, the Hon.
w. j. Bleakley. The land was for.
merly the property of Mrs. BIS ex.
cellent mother, NJ. Anna Lamb, and
is highly appreciated by the Order.
The only requirements are, the keeping
in order of the May lot, in the old
cemetery, in which Mrs. Lamb lies
buried, the keeping up Of good fences,
and protection Of the river bank. We
also note that the Order has purchased
the lot of the late Mrs. Thomas, ad.
joining, from her executors, Messrs.
Lindsey and Irwin, at the appraise.
ment price. This will make one Of
the most complete and beautiful GENE.
teries along the Upper Allegheny.
Why not now give the Order charge
of the old cemetery and thus make the
square complete?
james Brown, one Of the pioneers
of this section, died at the residence Of
Daniel Andrews, 10 Hickory township,
on Saturday last. For some time past
he had made his home with Mr.. An
drews. Mr.. Brown was for many
years one Of the familiar figures along
the Allegheny river, between OIL City
and Tidioute, where be spent most of
his long life, having his homestead at
what was once called White Oak, op.
posite Trunkeyville station. and as
FISHERMAN Brown" he will be well
rememb bered by our citizens for nearly
three generations past. He followed
the occupation of fishing, principally,
in which pursuit he was thoroughly
expert. Also in the knitting of seines
and nets, but the laws Of the past few
years rather destroyed this industry in
this section. He was a quiet, peacea.
BILE old gentleman, whom all liked to
meet aud converse with, his reminis
cences Of by gone days being quite en-
tertaining. He was over SO years OF
age at the time of his death, his wife
having preceded him in death about
ten months. The funeral took place
on Sunday last.

home on Friday night, October II,
1890. After days work on Friday
he went to bed at the usual hour in
the evening in apparent good health,
and at midnight was dead, having
passed away without struggle. His
disease is supposed to have been heart
trouble. Mr.. Andrews was born 10
Newburg, N. Y. Oct 25, 1915. After
the war, in which, he was soldier
toward the close, he engaged in the
hemlock extract business. which he
