an insidious disease, that would
not yield to treatment. Before
going to Pittsburgh, Miss Great
head taught the Grammar school
in McConnellsburg, and the faith
ful, efficient, conscientious work
she did while in that position will
bring forth golden fruit in the
lives and hearts of the many
young people who were fortunate
enough to be under the pale of
her influence.
The casket containing her re-
mains was tenderly placed in its
last resting place by six of her
former McConnellsburg pupils,
