MOON

Reuben W. Moon was born April %,
1858, at what was then known as Fruits
Mill, Mercer county, Pa, his parents be-
ing Cephss and Magdalens (Kiester)
Moon, deceased. lis death occurred at
800 o'clock on the morning of January
%, 1914, after an illness of about three
weeks, at his home in Tionesta, Pa.
The passing of this excellent citizen
was a shock TO the entire community in
which greater portion of his correct and
honorable life had been spent, and the
sincerest grief has been expressed by
everyone who has ever known or come in
contact with him. AS a young man he
came to this section with his parents, and
on May lst, 1888, he was united in mar
riage with Miss Anna, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Grubbs, who survives
him. In young manhood he chose the
avocation of carpenter and wagon maker,
and better mechanic or more con scientI-
Gus workman would be hard to find.
Many years ago he began work with
Messrs. Scowden Il Clark in this place
and upon the dissolution of that firm Mr..
Moon continued his employment with
Mr.. Scowden, and for more than ten
years past there have been few working
days that he has not been found at his
post. AS an employe and agreeable com
panion bond of greatest friendship p grew
up between the employer and employed
which was broken only by this very sad
ard unex pected death.
Mr.. Moons exemplary Christian life
was an inspiration to all with whom he
came 10 contact. While never in the least
neglecting bis work, he still found a way
to give much time tc work in the church,
and rs class leader in the M. E. church he
WAS never absent from the meetings, but
always had we'll prepared lesson for
those who attended. Faithful, loyal and
true, not only to the Master and the
church, but toward all mankind, he
carried with him to the grave the highest
respect of all our citizens, and by all, this

BROUGHT BY MRS. Oracle

The District National Bank has filed
answer to the suit brought against it
by Mrs. Constance S. Oracle for the
surrender of stock certificate for 100
shares of Pacific Coast Company stock,
liam Henry of the bankrupt firm of
Lewis johnson & Co. as part collateral
Tor loan to him of $4,000.
The bank declares that the certificate
was accompanied by a power of attor-
ney executed in blank and bearing, as
IT claims. the genuine signature of Mrs.
Oracle. According to all uses in bank
ing circles such blank powers of attor-
ney, il is alleged, carry the right to
use.
Having received the certificate in
nocently, and without notice of any al
legged infirmities. and being without
suspicion that ]. William Henry the
Arm of Lewis Johnson Co. was in
solvent at the date of the loan the
bank claims the suit against il should
be dismissed and its possession of the
certificate left undisturbed by the
courts.
The bank, through Attorneys Barnard
& Johnson and A. Z. Lester, admits
that 1t attempted to effect a transfer
practice. The transfer was refused, the
court is told. because Mrs. Oracle had
directed the Bankers Trust Company.
under date of July II, not to transfer
the certificate.
The notice Of Mrs Oracle to the trust
company, the answer states. recited
that she had accidentally destroyed the
certificate. In her petition for the sur
render of the certificate Mrs. Oracle
claims that Mr. Henry surreptitiously
removed the certificate when returning

nkes Of stock owned by her.
