JUNIATA
OBITUARY
W. H. Wren Dead in Lock Haven.

  Sadness came on Christmas to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Garthoof, 
721 Fifth avenue, in the sudden death of Mrs. Garthoof's father, W. H. 
Wren.  Mr. and Mrs. Wren, who made their home with Mr. and Mrs. 
Garthoof, were visiting with a son in Lock Haven when the last great 
summons came on Sunday to the father.  The tidings came back to Juniata 
to break preparations for a happy Christmas and Mr. and Mrs. Garthoof 
at once went to Lock Haven.  We are unable to learn the cause of the 
death of Mr. Wren, who was about 64 years of age.  He is survived by 
his wife and two children - Mrs. Garthoof and Arthur Wren, proprietor 
of the Temperance house in Lock Haven.  The funeral will occur in Lock 
Haven today.
