Sudden Deaths.

  Truly "in the midst of life we are in death," and how forcibly do the 
providences we are this week called upon to record, admonish us all of 
the importance of being ready for the solemn change to which we are all 
doomed.
 - On Monday Morning, a citizen of Gaysport, named Isaac Dougherty, and 
a man of very intemperate habits, was discovered lying dead in a small 
building in that place, in which he had been keeping "bachelor's hall."  
He had been seen at the door but an hour or two before, procuring some 
water, Coroner Funk was called, and an inquest held upon his remains, 
and a verdict of death from the intemperate use of intoxicating drinks 
rendered.  He was about 40 years of age. - Hollidaysburg Register.
