Mrs. Annie Smith, of 1807 Twelfth avenue,  died at 9.55 last evening

a while.

She was married about thirty-four years ago to Peter Smith, who died
about eight years after his marriage.  The deceased is survived by one
son, Matthew, and two daughters, Mrs. W. J. Dean, and Mrs. H. A.
Wilson, all living at the family residence, 1807 Twelfth avenue.  She
is also survived by one brother, Edward Lockard, of Kittanning Point.
She has been a member of St. John's church ever since she has been a
resident of Altoona.
