Dilling of Martinsburg, Mrs. Leora Piper of Duncansville, and Mrs. I. B. Kensinger of Fredericksburg.
She was a member of the Church of the Brethren, a good neighbor and a friend to all. Funeral services will be held in the Memorial Church of the Brethren at this place Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, this time being set on account of the son, John, who could not arrive sooner from California. The services will be in charge of Rev. C. O. Beery and Rev. James Sell. Interment will be made in the Brumbaugh cemetery at Fredericksburg.
