DOUGHERTY, DHINAUT, DEWALD, HOPKINS, DEFRANCE Mrs. Eliza DOUGHERTY, aged 70 years, widow of George DOUGHERTY, died Sunday evening, May 11, at 7 o'clock at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Charles RODGERS, at Laurel Hill. Death was due to hear trouble from which she had been suffering for some time. Mrs. DOUGHERTY was born in Ireland. She was a member of St. Alphonsus' Church. The death of her husband occurred about eight years ago. One son, George DOUGHERTY of Sturgeon, survives. Two daughters who reside in Corning, Ohio, survive besides Mrs. RODGERS. The funeral was held Wednesday morning at 9:30 in St. Alphonsus Church. Interment in the Noblestown cemetery. Mary, the two-months-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. DHINAUT of Sturgeon, died at 3 o'clock Friday afternoon, May 9. Besides the parents one sister survives. Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at the home. Jacob DEWALD, a German farmer, aged 51 years, living in Reissing, committed suicide about 3 o'clock last Friday morning. It is supposed that he set fire to the barn and then hung himself from the hay mow. The wife awoke shortly after three o'clock Friday morning and when she discovered that her husband had risen she got up to look about the house for him. Her attention was attracted by the burning barn. By the time she had made her way from the house the flames had gained such headway that nothing could be done to save it. DEWALD's charred body was found in the ruins. It was so badly burned that it could hardly be recognized. Two cows and a quantity of grain and farm implements were also destroyed. The wife survives with one daughter, Miss Mary, at home, and a son, Henry DEWALD, in Illinois. The funeral services were held at the home Sunday afternoon at two o'clock in charge of the Rev. W. D. IRONS. Interment in Robinson's Run cemetery. Mrs. Benjamin FEREDAY received word Monday morning from Pittsburgh of the death of her sister, Mrs. Charles HOPKINS, who resided on the South Side. Mrs. HOPKINS was aged about 45 years. She is survived by her husband. Mrs. FEREDAY is the only living member of the family. Mrs. Martha EWING DEFRANCE, aged seventy-nine years, died Monday morning at her home in Candor. Her first husband was Joseph ROBINSON and her second marriage was to John DEFRANCE of Centerville, Iowa. She belonged to an old pioneer family of this locality and spent her long life here, excepting the thirteen years spent in Iowa, during the lifetime of Mr. DEFRANCE. She was a faithful member of the Raccoon Presbyterian Church, being vice president of the Women's Missionary Society for twenty-one years and never missing a meeting of the society in that time. Funeral services were held in the church on Wednesday morning, conducted by her pastor, Dr. G. M. KERR. Interment in Raccoon cemetery. *Martha Jane DEFRANCE, from an Executor's Notice of 5-30-13.
