ROARING SPRING.

  The report of Michael Hartman, residing at Henrietta, regarding the 
death of his children, was somewhat exaggerated.  Sannie, aged 13, and 
Bertha, aged 11, were buried in one casket, on Tuesday, and Charlie, 
aged 7, will be buried today in the cemetery at Millerstown.  They died 
of diphtheria, which is raging in that country.  We sympathize with the 
bereaved parents.  One more is confined to the house, but he is 
supposed to be out of danger of that treacherous disease until they are 
entirely cured.  Ed. Came home to help his parents, but now he is the 
afflicted one.  Dr. Vissel is the attending physician.
