  Mrs. Mary Beals, widow of the late Abraham Beals, died very suddenly at the 
residence of her son, William, No. 1410 Twelfth avenue, on Sunday morning at 
half past 1 o'clock of heart failure.  She was born in Centre county, June 4, 
1808, and was consequently in her 81st year at the time of her death.  She 
came to this county about forty-five years ago and made her home on what is 
now the Lloyd estate.  Of a family of fourteen children but two survive and 
are David, of Iowa, and William, of this city.  She was a member of the First 
Lutheran church of Altoona and lived in accordance with its teachings.
