(Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938: December 20, 1872 A man named David Barr, a former resident of Hollidaysburg, came to his death on Wednesday last, at or near McKee's Gap, in this county, in the following simple manner. He was engaged in butchering hogs and went up stairs to get a hatchet, and while descending the stairs, the ice on the heels of his boots caused him to slip, when he fell upon the edge of the hatchet, severing his jugular vein and causing death in a few minutes. - Altoona Sun File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/pa/blair/obits/b/barr20417gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/pafiles/ File size: 1.1 Kb
