MISS NELLIE SPECK

  Miss Nellie Speck, a daughter of Clem and Mrs. Ada Speck, of South 
Huntingdon, died at her home on Saturday, Oct. 19th, at 1.30 a.m. from 
the effects of Spanish influenza and pneumonia.  Miss Speck had been at 
home and attending the public school.  She was an attractive young lady 
and greatly admired by all who knew her, and her sudden death is a 
great shock to her parents and many friends, all of whom regarded her 
as an excellent young lady, and one who will be sadly missed in the 
community in which she lived.  She is survived by her parents, three 
brothers and one sister, as follows: Miss Lola Speck, a former well 
known school teacher and Ralph and Lex Speck both in the hospital 
suffering with the same disease.
