Mrs. Birdie Long, nee Robson, died at 8.30 o'clock on Thursday evening at Pine Grove Mills, and was buried in the cemetery at that place on Saturday. Her husband, Rev. Mr. Long, of Marble Rock, Iowa, was telegraphed for, but arrived too late to see his wife in life. The husband was greatly overcome at the very sudden and unexpected loss of his partner and greatly regretted his inability to be present. Mrs. Long was called from her western home on account of the serious illness of her father, John Robson, who died about a month ago. Her sister Alice, a very pleasant and handsome young lady, is also very ill at the home in Pine Grove. Altoona Tribune, March 28, 1889
