DEATHS AT ROARING SPRING.

  Mrs. Elizabeth Feather, wife of Joseph S. Feather, died at her home 
at this place on the 13th, aged 40 years, 2 months and 8 days.  She 
died rather suddenly.  Her husband left her in apparently good health 
on Monday morning and went to Hollidaysburg, as usual, where he is 
employed by the Pennsylvania Railroad company.  She died a few hours 
afterward of heart failure.
  She was a gentle, loving woman, who made her home cheerful and happy.  
She was a member of the Church of God and loved her church.  Her 
funeral occurred on Wednesday.  Her pastor, the Rev. Mr. Grove, 
preached the funeral sermon.
  Mr. Feather has been sorely bereaved.  His wife and five children 
have died since he became a resident of our town a few years ago.
