  Bedford, January 13. - The body of John Knight, who was found dead near his 
boarding place at Boswell, Somerset county, Sunday night, was brought to this 
place this evening and taken to the home of his sisters, Misses Sue, Mollie 
and Anna Knight, East Penn street, and tomorrow will be taken to Hopewell, 
this county, his former home, for interment.  He was aged 57 years and had 
been employed as a coal miner in the Somerset town.  Although particulars of 
his death have not been learned, it is supposed that he became ill while en 
route home from his work and died or was frozen before aid could reach him.  
He leaves three sisters.
