Death of Miss Eliza Evans 

Miss Eliza Evans, aged 66 years, sister of the late Hon. Alvin Evans and aunt of Attorneys John E. and 
Chas. S. Evans, Mrs. J. W. Kephart and Alvin Evans, died suddenly at the Evans homestead on Center 
Street about ten o'clock Sunday night.  She had been ailing for a couple of years and complained of 
another attack of illness the past week, but it was not thought at first that her condition was serious.  
She became critically ill Sunday afternoon and her death a few hours later was sudden and 
unexpected by her friends.  The deceased was a daughter of the late David J. Evans, a well known 
tailor who died here about 1890.  The funeral took place from the Evans residence Wednesday 
afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. Miss Evans was a lifelong member of the Presbyterian Church but as that 
church here has no pastor at present, the funeral services were conducted by the Rev. H. H. 
Guernsey of the Ebensburg Congregational Church.  Interment was in Lloyd's cemetery.
