DEATH OF MISS BARBOUR.

Funeral Will be Conducted From the Home Tomorrow.

Sarah Jane Barbour, a maiden lady who lived with her sister and brothers on Vine street, passed away Monday afternoon and the funeral will be held from the home tomorrow morning at 10:00, after which interment will be a Oak Hill cemetery north of this city, at Johnson's Grove. Miss Barbour, a native of Ireland, was born near Londonberry on May 23, 1832, making her 79 years, 11 months and six days of age at the time of her death. She with her sisters Catherine and Matilda, the latter now deceased, came to this county in 1876, where they joined their brothers, David and Robert, on the farm which the young men had acquired in Richland township and there she made her home until a couple of years ago, when the brothers and sisters moved to this city and took up their abode in a comfortable cottage on Vine street. The deceased was a member of a most excellent family and is kindly remembered by many old neighbors and friends. These will join with the two brothers and sister Catherine in mourning the death of their sister and lifelong companion.
