MRS. FRANK SHUGARTS

  The many friends of Mrs. J. Frank Shugarts, late of Los Angeles, 
'California, but formerly a resident of Altoona for several years, will 
be 'sorry to learn of her demise, which took place at her home last 
Friday 'evening at 8 o'clock.  Death was due to a relapse after a 
severe attack of 'influenza.  Mrs. Shugarts was born on the Williams 
homestead, near 'Ansonville, in Clearfield county, Pa., and was the 
youngest daughter of 'Glenn and Martill Williams, both deceased.  Her 
girlhood days were spent at 'the old home until she was united in 
marriage to J. Frank Shugarts, of New 'Milport, Pa.  He survives as do 
also the following brothers and sister: C. 'Austin Williams, of Big 
Run, Jefferson county; A. D. Williams, of Kochrines, 'Alaska; Mrs. J. 
F. Thompson, of Woodland, Pa.; E. Chauncey Williams, of 'Colorado 
Springs, Col.; John W. Williams, of Gazzam, Pa.; and W. Blair 
'Williams, of Macon, Washington.  She was a sister of the late Mrs. I. 
R. 'McNeel, of 604 Sixth avenue, Juniata.  Mrs. Shugarts was a lifelong 
member 'of the Zion Baptist church of Ansonville and her consistent 
Christian life 'was an example to all who came into contact with her.  
She was possessed of 'the kindliest of dispositions and "none knew her 
but to love her."  The 'remains will be brought from Los Angeles, Cal., 
to Ansonville, Clearfield 'Co., where services will be held in the 
Baptist church, at 1:30 p.m. on 'Tuesday, March 11.  Interment in Old 
Zion cemetery.
