Friday, January 24, 1879 -  The Home News, Bryn Mawr 


Pneumonia – Mrs. S. L. OGDEN, Mansion House, Valley Forge, lies critically ill 
of a protracted attack of pneumonia, and is not expected to live.

Paralysis – mrs. J. H. LEAMY, of Eale, Chester county, recently sustained a 
severe paralytic stroke, but still retains the use of her limbs; the muscles of 
the right side of the face are inactive.

Ex-County Treasurer Jesse E. PHILLIPS, of Chester county, has settled his case 
with the County Commissioners, having paid over to the latter the amount of 
county funds on deposit in the Bank of Brandywine when the bank failed.  The 
failure of the bank thus made Mr. PHILLIPS, and not Chester county whose 
responsible official he was, the loser.

Mrs. Elizabeth MORRISON, widow of the Rev. A. G. MORRISON, pastor of the 
Presbyterian church at Coatesville for about thirty years, died on the 15th aged 
68 years.

On the 17th inst., Joseph BALDWIN, in this 80th year, and Sarah Ann, his wife, 
aged 62 years, departed their lives almost simultaneously at their residence, at 
Mortonville, Chester county, the former dying of pneumonia and the latter of 
heart disease.
