distressing circumstances.  In the early evening she was in her ordinary 
health and after supper went down town to do some shopping, accompanied by a 
young lady named Price.  On the way home Mrs. McClellan was taken ill and 
when she reached the Price residence, 1505 Ninth street, she was unable to go 
further.  Dr. Long was hastily summoned, but in spite of his best efforts she 
died a short time after his arrival.  Undertaker Lafferty later removed the 
body to the late home, 1515 Ninth street.

but a child and resided with her parents in Indiana county until 1864, when 
she came to Altoona where she since resided.  She was married to James 
McClellan in 1859.  These children survive: Frank, Mrs. Kate Charles, Louis, 
Brinton and Charles, all of this city.  These brothers and sisters also 
survive: Mrs. Samuel Rude, of Johnstown; Valentine Warner, of Arkansas, and 
Mrs. Margaret Gibbons, of Minnesota.  The deceased was a member of the
