McVEYTOWN JOTTINGS.

  Mrs. Edward Hall, who with her husband lived here for several years, died 
in South Africa two weeks after she joined her husband there.  Mr. Hall went 
from McVeytown to the gold fields of South Africa in the vicinity of 
Johannesburg in the employ of the "industrial Compressed Air Drill Co.," 
where he has since made a great deal of money.  Mrs. Hall's death was the 
result of continued sea sickness during the long voyage which she undertook 
against the advice of her physician in England.  She had many friends in 
this vicinity who remember her as a refined and intelligent lady, and Mr. 
Hall, who was also highly respected in this community, has the sympathy of 
many friends in the great loss he has sustained.

Democrat and Sentinel, Lewistown, Thursday, February 11, 1897
