TAYLOR. - Died at the home of her son-in-law, Joel Burnett, Mrs. D.J. Taylor, aged 71 years, of la grippe, on February 17.
The funeral took place at the M.E. church on Friday afternoon the 19th, Rev. Joe Lisk, of Tioga, officiating. The remains were interred in the old Rose Hill cemetery. Mother Taylor was born in Ohio in 1820, and for over 50 years she lived a Christian life, being a member of the United Brethren church. The funeral was largely attended for she was well known, being an old resident of this township. She leaves an aged husband and several grown children to mourn her loss, who have the sympathy of all in this, their sad bereavement.
