(Pittsburgh, Pa.) 1860-1898: November 17, 1860 Died of typhoid fever, October 5th, 1860, Mrs. Sarah Jane Algeo, of Washington County, Ohio, in the 33d year of her age. The deceased was a woman, though comparatively young, who had passed through the deep waters of affliction. In 1853, she was called upon to mourn the loss of a kind husband. Anxious to see to the training of her children, (three interesting little daughters), she determined to remain on her farm. But in 1856, she was called upon to see her youngest child laid in the cold grave; in a fortnight, her second daughter laid by her side; and in five months and five days after, her last and only surviving child sunk into the arms of death. Mrs. Algeo bore this sore affliction and bereavement with great resignation and patience. From this time she made her home with her brother-in-law, Mr. Sheets, in whose house she died. About one year ago, she connected herself with the Presbyterian church of Grandview, where she continued to adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour by a holy walk and conversation becoming the Gospel. And now may be found in the cemetery at Brownsville, that entire family.
