Died.

GIBBONEY - B. F. Gibboney, of Tyrone, while on a visit to his brother, 
Jas., at Martinsburg, was taken ill and became gradually worse until 
Monday of last week when death came to his relief.  Mr. Gibboney was in 
the 53d year of his age at the time of his death, and leaves a wife and 
nine children to mourn his loss.  The cause of his death was abscess of 
the brain, said to have been caused by mental anxiety.  He was a 
consistent and faithful member of the Methodist Episcopal church for 
many years and though no last words are recorded, he is at peace.  The 
last time we saw his face was in the delightful meeting at Martinsburg, 
in June last.  We shall hear his voice no more here, but there is 
another and better world. 

Democratic Standard, Hollidaysburg, Pa., Wednesday, September 25, 1878
