Mrs. Laura, wife of Jonathan Jone es,
of Cambria township, died at Dixmont in
sane asylum on Friday last, aged about Is
years. The deceased was born in Ebens-
burg and was daughter of John Brook
bank. deceased, an old resident of this
place. About twenty years ago she was
united in marriage TO Jonathan Jones, 4
prosperous farmer. and up until about a
year ago was a careful and prudent help
meet and an eStimable lady. About that
time her mind became impaired and con-
tinuing to grow worse it became necessary
about a month ago to take her to DiXmont
IN hope that treatment in that institution
would prove beneficial. 1t was, however,
of no avail and on Friday death came to
her relief. She is survived by her husband
and seven children a. also by TWO brothers
and one sister.
The Berlin Record says that Mr.. Ira
Miller. who lives just east Of RoNbury. on
the Somerset and Bedford pike, while
clearing a piece of ground few days ago.
scratched up nest of spurious gold coins
of the denomination OF g. There were
forty coins. all bearing the date 1914. The
tarniShed appearance of the coins indica'
ted that il was many years since they were
buried at the root of the tree which stood
where they were found. a little bit OF
rubbing sufficed to brighten them up and
give them the appearance OF genuine coin,
perfect enough in their imitation to de-
ceive any but an expert. They were taken
to the Berlin bank. and after a careful eN-
animation, pronounced spurious. The
Record says that in a confession made by
DaVy Lewis. Somerset cOuntyS notorious
robber and counterfeiter of by gone days,
he spoke Of having hidden some gold in
the neghborhoOd of Berlin. This may be
some Of Davy's hidden treasure
