well known and highly respected.  She was a consistent member of the 
Lutheran church, and always an active worker in its various 
departments; having been a teacher in the Sunday school for many years 
until her failing health compelled her to give up active work in the 
church.  She is survived by her husband and two daughters, Mrs. Sarah, 
wife of W. J. Karlheim, and Mrs. Helen, wife of William Porter, both 
residents of Huntingdon.  She is also survived by her father, who since
