NANCY C. BEAL

  Mrs. Nancy Catherine (Inks) Beal, second wife of Charles H. Beal, late of 
Salisbury, died March 13, 1943, at Oil City, Pa., at the age of 80 years, 2 
months and 24 days.  She was born and reared in Garrett County, Md., but located 
in Salisbury, Pa., when still a young woman.  Her death was caused by a faulty 
heart condition.  Her husband preceded her in death, Nov. 4, 1923.
  Mrs. Beal was a daughter of George F. and Elizabeth (McCartney) Inks, and is 
survived by these children: Mary Alice, wife of Hubert Waterson of Pittsburgh; 
Lula, wife of Marshall Rigal; Marian, wife of Clarence Arthurs, and George E., 
all of Oil City; Emerson H. of Spartansburg, Pa.  She is also survived by two 
stepsons, James N. Beal of Pittsburgh, and Charles O. Beal of Colver, Pa., and 
by one sister, Alice, wife of Rev. William H. Penn, of Hazel Green, Wisconsin.
  Mrs. Beal's body arrived in Salisbury where she long had resided, and was 
taken to the Methodist Church, of which she was a faithful member, and was the 
last surviving charter member of the Salisbury congregation.  There it reposed 
in state where it could be viewed by the many friends of Mrs. Beal who still 
reside here, until it was about time for the funeral services, which were 
conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. B. Warman, at 3:00 p.m.
  All of her children, step-children and "in-laws" were present, except the 
oldest daughter, Mary Alice, and her husband, Hubert Waterson.
  The floral tributes were beautiful, and interment was in the I.O.O.F. 
Cemetery, under the direction of Stanley M. Thomas, local mortician.
