The Fulton County news. (McConnellsburg, Pa.): November 16, 1899
DEATH OF EFFIE G1LBERT.
Alfreda May Lou Gilbert, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. R. H. Gilbert, died at the
parsonage of the First M. E. church, Huntingdon, on the evening of the 7th inst.,
after an illness of eight weeks, of a complication of disorders. Effie, as she was
called, has been a patient little sufferer for a period of seven years and was
surely an example of heroic fortitude. Never once murmuring she wished she was like
other girls, but bore it all bravely until relieved by the hand of death. She was
born at Williamsport, Pa., May 16, 1886, in the parsonage of Grace Methodist church,
and at the time of her death was aged 13 years, 5 months and 22 days. She is
survived by her parents, two brothers, Frederick and Richard, and one sister, Miss
Cleo, a student at Dickinson Seminary, Williamsport. Rev. Gilbert was pastor of the
M. E. congregation at Hustontown several years ago.
