BELLWOOD BRIEFS.

  Our town was startled and shocked yesterday by the news of the death 
of Mrs. C. A. Lauver, wife of Esquire Lauver, which occurred at her 
home on Cambria street shortly after 10 o'clock yesterday morning.  
Mrs. Lauver had not been in good health for several years, owing to 
lung trouble; but her last illness was very short, and many of her 
friends did not know of her illness till they heard of her death.  Even 
her family did not realize that her end was so near until a few moments 
before it came.  Mrs. Lauver was 58 years of age.  She had lived in 
Bellwood for many years and was beloved by all who knew her.  She was a 
member of the Methodist church, and lived, day by day, the religion she 
professed.  She was quiet and unassuming and only her family and 
intimate friends knew her real worth.  Besides her husband, five 
daughters survive her: Mrs. I. Moreland Walters, Mrs. Will Myers and 
Misses Clara, Lillian and Rena Lauver, all of Bellwood.  A large circle 
of relatives and friends at her former home in Juniata county, will 
also mourn her death.  The funeral service will be held at her home on 
Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock, after which her remains will be laid to 
rest in Logan Valley cemetery.
