HOLLIDAYSBURG HAPPENINGS.
Sudden Death.

  On Sunday evening Miss Biddy Fornholtz, daughter of Charles 
Fornholtz, aged about 20 years, dropped dead while engaged in putting  
coal in the cook stove.  Miss Fornholtz attended St. Michael's Catholic 
Church at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, apparently in perfect health.  
She was a young lady noted for her quiet Christian deportment, never 
attending any dances or other places of amusement, but devoting all her 
spare time in devotional duties, at church and at home.  Her funeral 
will take place on Wednesday at 10 o'clock.
