  Nathaniel Mowry died at the Altoona hospital yesterday morning at 3 
o'clock following an operation for nephritis which was performed a week 
ago.  He was a lifelong resident of Pleasantville, Bedford county.  He

on a farm near Pleasantville and was well known throughout Bedford 
county.  His wife preceded him to the grave a number of years ago.  The 
following children survive: Mrs. Grant Miller of Buffalo Mills, Frank 
of Altoona, Lloyd of Eldorado, G. S. Mowry and Mrs. Jesse Oldham, both 
of Windber.  One brother, Isaiah Mowry of this city, also survives.  
The funeral services will be held this evening at 7.30 from the son's 
home in Eldorado.  The remains will be taken to Pleasantville tomorrow
