  Mr. John Helsel, who was carting out at Lakemont last week, received 
the very shocking news on Saturday morning about 8 o'clock that his 
brother George, of Lewistown, was killed on Thursday and would be 
buried on Saturday.  Leaving the house at 8 o'clock through some 
mistake John had failed to receive the word until about the hour for 
the funeral cortege to start on its way toward Roaring Spring.  He was 
able, however, by making haste, to meet the funeral processing at East 
Freedom.
