MRS. ELIZABETH HENRY

  Mrs. Elizabeth Ramsey Henry, widow of John Henry, died at her home in 
Miller township, near Cornpropst Mills, on Monday, April 22, at 10.30 
a.m. as a result of pneumonia, with which she had been afflicted for 
five days previous to her death.  Deceased was the daughter of David 
and Elizabeth Ramsey, and was born at Manor Hill 81 years ago.  She was 
united in marriage to John Henry, of West township, where the greater 
part of her single and married life was spent.  Her husband preceded 
her to the grave several years ago; hence she, with a son and daughter 
remained at the old homestead until her death.  She is survived by two 
daughters and one son, as follows: Mrs. Effie, wife of John Blair, of 
Shavers Creek Valley; Miss Mollie Henry, at home; and Charles Henry, 
who is employed in Altoona.  Mrs. Henry was the last survivor of a 
family of five children.  She was a consistent member of the Methodist 
church, and a highly respected woman.  Funeral services were conducted 
at her late home Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock, by the Rev. Samuel J. 
Pittinger, with interment in Mooresville cemetery.
