PETER REIGH.

  Peter Reigh died at the home of his son, David Reigh, near Elizabeth 
Furnace, on Monday the 25th inst., of pneumonia, in the 78th year of 
his age.  He was an excellent citizen, and a member of the Bellwood

loss of a kind father.  The sons are David, of Antis township; Martin, 
of this city, and Lewis, of Bellwood.  One of the daughters, Mrs.

married but her husband's name we have not learned, nor her residence.  
Mr. Reigh's wife preceded him to the grave several years ago.
