EBENEZER STEEL DUNCAN

Died suddenly at his home, 305 Tenth avenue, Juniata Park, on Saturday
night. He retired at 11 o'clock after spending the evening with the
members of his family, singing hymns and fifteen minutes later was dead
in bed.  There was no premonition of the impending dissolution, he
having been apparently in good health when he retired.  Physicians
pronounced his sudden demise as due to heart disease.  Mr. Duncan had
been a resident of Juniata Park for about eighteen months, previous to
removing there having been employed as a machinist in Pittsburg.  The
operation of the Pennsylvania railroad pension plan prevented him from
obtaining employment in this city at his vocation.  Deceased was born in
-------, England, August 1, 1853, and was at death aged 53 years, 11
months and 22 days.  He has been a resident of America for many years.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mary Ann ------ Duncan and five
children:  William of Wilkinsburg, John, Maurice, -----, Misses Jessie
and Mary at home.  The funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon at 2
o'clock, with services at the late residence.
