DEATH OF JOHN PEDEN
About 3 o'clock this afternoon Mr. John Peden, who resided on the corner of Morris and Dibert Streets, Fifth Ward, died, at the age of some fifty-five years. Deceased was a carpenter by occupation, and always enjoyed fair health up until a few months ago, when he was badly injured internally by falling from a building which he was erecting for Mr. Eichensehr, at Frogtown, Adams Township. During the greater part of the time since meeting with the accident he had been confined to the home, and his death was not unexpected. This gentleman came to Johnstown from Ligonier, Westmoreland County, in 1845, and resided here ever since. He early identified himself with the United Brethren Church, of which he was a consistent and useful member, and by habits of industry managed to make a comfortable living for himself and family. He leaves a wife and four children to mourn the loss of a kind husband and father. One of his daughters is married, and the remaining children are two sons and a daughter.
DIED-
