    3. HADDEN, TANSEY, SMITH Elizabeth HADDEN, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. G. HADDEN, departed this life August 26th, 1904. On Thursday at 5:20 p.m. at the Passavant Hospital, of appendicitis, in her 18th year, God saw fit to pluck this choicest blossom. She was a Christian girl, a zealous worker at all religious gathering and a comfort to her Godly parents. That she was held in the highest esteem of her associates was manifested in the manner which they inquired after her welfare. She was a young lady beloved by all who knew her. Her amiable and pleasing disposition made her a favorite among her associates. She having graduated in June from high school, had planned to seek a higher education elsewhere this coming fall, but God saw fit to call her to a higher and nobler work. At her home on East Lincoln avenue at 2 o'clock Sabbath afternoon, her many friends and associates will gather to look at her face no more. She will leave to mourn her loss, father, mother, two sisters, Margaret and Mary, and an aged grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth SCOTT. *poem not transcribed Mr. and Mrs. DOLAN attended the funeral of Mr. TANSEY, at Castle Shannon, on Thursday. During the storm Monday afternoon, which was quite severe south of town, a fatal accident occurred on what is known as the EDGAR farm in Cecil township in the MCCONNELL neighborhood, Thomas SMITH, who lives on the farm, and his son Walter, a boy of 16 years, were engaged in hauling in oats when the storm came on. The wind blew very strong and frightened the team, which ran away. Walter SMITH, who was on the load of grain, was thrown off and instantly killed.
