HERBERT L. GOUGHNOUR

  Rev. H. L. Goughnour, pastor of the Meyersdale Main Street and the Summit 
Mills Brethren churches from 1910 to 1916 and 1920 to 1924, died in the State 
Hospital, Scranton, Pa., on Wednesday, Dec. 20, after a long illness. 
  He was a native of Johnstown, a graduate of Ashland College theological 
seminary and Temple and Columbia Universities.  He was very popular in 
Meyersdale, during his ministry here, both as a preacher and public-spirited and 
progressive citizen.
  He went from here to Nanticoke, Pa., where he served a Welsh Presbyterian 
congregation very acceptably for some years.  At the time of his death he had 
been pastor for some years of the Tabernacle Congregational Church.
  He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Blanche Goughnour; a son Lynn, an instructor 
in Valley Forge Military Academy at Wayne, Pa., and a sister, Mrs. H. W. Darr, 
Johnstown.
