HOWARD D. CREE

Well known Middle division freight conductor and for many years a 
resident of Tyrone, died this morning at 2:35 o'clock at his home in 
the Farmer and Merchants National bank building, death being attributed 
to a stroke of apoplexy suffered on Monday evening while he was sitting 
by the radio in his home.  His condition was critical from that time.  
Mr. Cree was born in Ironsville, the son of Samuel H. and Ellen 
Williams Cree.  On Sept. 8, 1897, he was united in marriage with Miss 
Jane E. Van Scoyoc of Tyrone, who survives, with one son, S. Van Cree 
of Philadelphia, and one brother and one sister, Boyd Cree and Mrs. L. 
F. Garber of Roaring Spring.  He was a member of the First Presbyterian 
church and was active in church and community work and was well liked 
in railroad and community circles.  He was a member of the Brotherhood 
of Railroad Trainmen.  The body was removed to the Graham funeral home 
on Tenth street, Tyrone, where funeral services will be conducted 
Friday morning at 10:30 o'clock in charge of his pastor, Rev. Dr.
