MRS. CHRISTINA DANIELS.
Died Last Sunday at the Home OF Her
Daughter, Mrs. Mann, Aged Almost
90 Years.

The spirit of Mrs. Christina
Daniels, relict, of John Daniels,
deceased, took its flight about 1916
O'Clock on Sunday morning, last.
at the home of her eldest daughter.
Mrs. Maria Mann, near Saluvia,
where she had made her home for
the past two and one half years.
Mrs. Daniels, nee Rinard, was
born in Sherman's Valley, Bedford
county, Pa, March 10, 1916, and
was, therefore, aged 80 years, 4
months and 2S days. Upon arriv-
ing at womanhood, she was welded
to John Daniels, and at once To-
Gated on the farm near Green Hill,
known as the "DanielsHomestead. y
She was model wife, mother, and
neighbor. She tolled early and
late, and as long as she was able,
she was a Woodworking woman.
The construction of the large
brick house, the large bank-barn,
and other improvements to the
large farm, was largely due to her
efforts and toll.
The deceased had for many years
for 36 years, to the writer's
knowledge been a great sufferer
at times, from nervous neuralgia,
which grew worse and worse, and
more frequent, as she advanced
to old age, and for years past,
nothing would give her relief but
the strongest opiates. So that
death was craved by her, and has
been a happy relief from much ex-
treme suffering.
She was held in high esteem by
a large circle of friends. She liv :
ed the life of pure christian-was
a faithful member of the Green
Hill Presbyterian Church for many
years, and died in the hope of Il
glorious resurrection. She simply
"fell asleep in jesus and died
without any apparent struggle.
The deceased is survived by two
daughters and one son +: Mrs. Ma
ria Mann, afore-named, Miss Mary
E. f, of McConnellsburg, and II. S.,
near Harrisonvile.
The funeral was held Monday
afternoon at 3 o'clock, her pastor,
Rev. DR.. West officiating. Inter-
ment at Green Hill Presbyterian
Cemetery. j. A. S.

FORMER TEACHER OF FULTON.
Mrs. J. Cook. of Ottawa, Kan, Delegate
TO the Christian EndeavOr Convention,
Visited Friends in this Vicinity.

Mrs. j. Cook (nee Laura Belle
Booker), daughter of Mrs. James
Doran, has been visitor at the
home of James Doran, of Gracey,
for the last four weeks. Mrs.
Cook lives in Ottawa, Kan. She
was formerly school teacher of
Fulton county, and has a wide
circle of acquaintances. She was
delegate from Ottawa, Kan, to
the Christian Endeavor conven-
tion at Baltimore, Md. This CON
vent'on opened July 5th, and end
ed Monday afternoon, July 10th
1t was the twenty second Inter-
national Christian Endeavor Con-
vention, with headquarters at the
Armory building. Mrs. Cook
tells us that all the presiding of
ticers of this convention unite IN
saying this was one of the most
instructive as well as the largest
convention the Christian Endeav.
ors ever held. One of the most
emphatic, and also pathetic,
things of this convention was the
beautiful tribute paid to Rev.
Francis E. Clark, D. D., l.. l.. D.,
President United Society of
Christian Endeavors. Rev. Fran
els Clark was lying very i'll at his
summer home trying to battle
with one of the greatest disap-
polntments of his life-hls alb.
sence from this twenty-secon
Convention, when by a full vote
cast by every delegate in the
house, greetings were sent to
him, the founder of Christian En-
deavors. Another beautiful fea-
ture of this convention was the
chorus of twenty-five hundred
voices, at night. One anthem,
"The Heavens are Telllng"-
Gounod, was the most beautiful
ever heard. The Chorus had been
IN training twenty months, Con-
ductor, h. A. Harris, Baltimore.
1t was a rare treat. The song
service by the children, 1900 voic-
es, IN the afternoon, was beautl-
full and inspiring, Musical Direct
or, F.. II. Jacobs, Brooklyn, N. Y.
The writer tells us this was one
of the most devoted weeks of her
life, and when she says this, she
voices the sentiment of twenty.
five thousand people. Live for
ever the Christian Endeavors.
Mrs. Cook leaves for her home
in Ottawa, Aug. 10, by way of
Baltimore, and carries with her
pleasant memories of old associa.
tions revived.

HESSLER BARN BURNED.
Struck by Lightning Last Sunday After,
noon and Totally Destroyed. Small
Insurance.
MISS fANNIE'S NARROW ESCAPE.

During the terrific electrical
storm which passed over this
county last Sunday afternoon, the
large bank barn on the farm of
the late Thomas Hessler, one mile
east ofPleasant Ridge, was struck
by lightning and totally destroy.
ed, together with a large quantity
of grain of last years crop and all
of this year S crop. We are IN.
formed that there is an insurance
of $3.50, which is only a rride
when compared with the heavy
loss. Three horses were IN the
stables at the time the barn was
struck, but were gotten out 10
tune to save them.
Miss Fannie HessIer narrowly
escaped a horrible death. She
ran into the barn and was attempt
ing to stop the progress of the
flames in some straw, which she
thought had just caught. The
straw began to slide, and it was
with the greatest effort that she
escaped beng drawn down into
a PIT of flames which just then
burst forth with the widest fury.
