    John Patterson, esq., died at Renova, Pa., on the 16th, in the 84th year of 
  his age.  When the Juniata canal was made he and his brother James drove the 
  line of stages that ran between Millerstown and Duncan's Island.  The old 
  line of stages at that time represented rapid transit - what the railroad 
  expresses do to-day - and they ran night and day.  Mr. Patterson was elected 
  county commissioner of Perry county in 1846, and a director of the poor in 
  1871.
