    2. I know here I am again with another one! Hope it will help someone. Word for word. Deb DuBois Morning Courier 11/21/1938 Mrs. SARAH ELLEN SHAW Injuries received in a fall she sustained here five weeks ago resulted fatally on Saturday morning at 11:20 o'clock for Mrs. SARAH ELLEN SHAW, 83-year-old resident of Nanty-Glo. Her death occurred at the home of her niece, Mrs. ABEL JENNY, where she had come for a visit early last month. Shortly after her arrival she had the misfortune to fall down a stairway and received a fractured hip and other injuries that proved to be too severe for her constitution and resulted in death at the time stated. She was born in England, on October 2, 1856, but had lived in America many years, being located at Pittsburgh and Nanty-Glo where she was active in Methodist Church circles. Her husband, WILLIAM SHAW, and one son, HUTCHISON SHAW, preceded her. She is survived by two sons, JOHN and WILLIAM SHAW, of Pittsburgh; one daughter, Mrs. MARGARET HENSHAW, of Nanty-Glo. The body was prepared for burial at the Paul Short funeral parlors and taken to the JENNY home, at 207 Forest Avenue, where friends may call, and where funeral services will be held on Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Rev. Mr. KEYS, pastor of the Nanty-Glo Methodist Church, officiating, and burial will be made in Rumberger Cemetery.
