Mrs. Henry Settle died suddenly at the home of her son, Luther Johnson, Tuesday 
night at 11 o'clock, of heart trouble.  She had been ill for some time but the 
day previous to her death had been in her usual health, having helped her 
daughter-in-law with some of the housework.  A few hours after having retired 
for the night she called her daughter-in-law to give her some medicine, which 
she did, but death soon came to her relief.  She was aged 55 years, 11 months 
and 17 days.  Mrs. Settle was twice married.  Her first husband's name was Laben 
Johnson, who preceeded her to the spirit land.  She was later united in marriage 
with Henry Settle, who preceded her in death five years ago.  She leaves to 
mourn their loss four sons and one daughter, namely:  Frank Johnson, of Altoona; 
John and Scott Johnson and Mrs. Homer Dick of Roaring Spring, and Luther Johnson 
of Maria.  Also twelve grandchildren survive.  The funeral took place Thursday 
afternoon at the Holsinger Church of the Brethren of which she was a member.  
The services were conducted by Rev. John B. Miller of Curryville.  Interment was 
made in the cemetery near the church.
