"After being found unconscious on the train when returning home from a visit in Tulsa, Okla. Mrs. Alice Gatchell, one of Bradford's most highly esteemed women, died in the Buffalo General Hospital Saturday afternoon at 1:20. Two weeks ago Mrs. Gatchell went to Tulsa to visit her daughter, Mrs. Laura E. Flickinger and son, Eugene Gatchell. She was returning to her home in this city when on going to waken her just outside of Buffalo the porter found she could not be roused but was in an unconscious condition and was taken from the train and removed to the Buffalo General Hospital. Friends in this city were notified and Mrs. E. W. Holtenson of East Main street, and Mrs. L. G. Dana of Derrick City left for Buffalo to be with Mrs. Gatchell. Her death, however, occurred without her regaining consciousness. The body was brought to Bradford yesterday accompanied by the son, Eugene Gatchell, who came to Buffalo at once upon learning of his mother's Illness. Funeral services will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock in Koch's mortuary chapel. Rev. S. A. Keen of the First Methodist Church officiating. The interment will be made in Oak Hill. Mrs. Gatchell was 60 years old, and had been a resident of Bradford and vicinity for the past 50 years. She was a member of the First Methodist Church and was ever active in all work pertaining to her church. She was a woman of fine Christian character and her death will be sincerely mourned by all who knew her. Besides her son and daughter, she leaves one brother and three sisters."
