HOLLIDAYSBURG HAPPENINGS.
DEATH OF A YOUNG LADY.

  Miss Sarah Ayres, daughter of Mr. George Ayres, died in Gaysport on 
Wednesday night.  It is said Miss Ayres took sick while in the act of 
seeking religion, and we have also been told that the day on which she 
was buried was the day appointed for her marriage.  Before her sickness 
she was engaged in the paper mill at Roaring Springs [sic], to which 
place her body was taken on Thursday morning train for burial.  Truly 
in the midst of life we are in death.
