Mrs. Emma J. Hall, wife of Wm. Hall, died at her home in York, Thursday, January 
19th.  Funeral services were conducted on Sunday by the Rev. J. A. Shettel, of 
the Third United Brethren Church, assisted by the Rev. W. Emerson Karns, pastor 
of the Duke Street Methodist Episcopal congregation.  The choir of the Third 
United Brethren Church sang "What a Friend We Have in Jesus," and "I'm Going 
Home to Die No More," both of which were requested by Mrs. Hall.  Four brothers, 
William, John, Harry and Allen Knaub, acted as pall-bearers.  Interment was made 
in Greenmount Cemetery.

Weep not that her toils are over,
  Weep not that her race is run,
God grant we may rest as calmly,
  When our work, like hers, is done.
`Til then we yield with gladness,
  Our mother to Him to keep,
And rejoice in the sweet assurance,
  "He giveth His loved one sleep."
