MARTIN, editor of the "Union" and formerly of Hollidaysburg, to Miss LYDIA COULSON, of St. George, Pattawattomie county, Kansas. --------------------------------------- ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE Notice is hereby given that Letters of Administration have been granted to the undersigned on the estate of Samuel McGlathery, late of Logan township, Blair County, dec'd. All persons indebted to said estate are requested to make immediate payment, and those having claims will present the same duly authenticated for settlement, without delay. ANDREW BIDDLE, Administrator Altoona, Jan. 20, 1864. ---------------------- SUDDEN DEATH.--On Satruday last, while a number of boys were coasting down one of the streets in West Ward, Tommy Hilliard, son of Joseph Hilliard, ran his sled off the track against the steps in front of a house, on the sidewalk, injuring himself so much, internally, that he died at noon on Sunday. He was a fine, promising little boy, a favorite of all who knew him. Other boys were hurt on the same day, in consequence of their 'cutters' flying the track. We like to see boys enjoy themselves, and oft have we wished we "were a boy again," that we might repeat our pleasures, but we think they should select coasting ground less dangerous than that upon which little Tommy received his injuries. ----------------------- FROZEN TO DEATH.-- On Wednesday night last, Hugh McMullen, a blacksmith by trade, who worked with Mr. Hooper in North Ward, last summer, was frozen to death on the road leading from this place to Wapsononock, near the latter place. He was seen to leave this place in the evening, considerably under the influence of liquor, and was found Thursday morning, lying in the road, as stated above. Esquire Humes held an inquest over the body on Thursday evening. ------------------- Annie Whiteman PABlair Rootsweb List Administrator Annie Whiteman/Steve Patz Blair County Coordinators http://www.rootsweb.com/~pablair
