Obituary:
Mr. Frank H. Dick, son of George F. Dick, of East Wheatfield township, died in the West Penn hospital last Wednesday of paresis after a lingering illness. He was born September 12, 1862. He had been employed for several years by the Cambria Iron Company and when the Johnstown steel works were removed from Moxham to Lorain, O., he went along and took charge of the Speigle cupolas and continued with that company until last February, when he contracted the disease which caused his death. He is survived by his father, who lives in East Wheatfield township, and two brothers and three sisters, viz: Charles, living at New Castle; William, engineer on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad; Mrs. Annie Killen, wife of W.A. Killen, of Seward, and Misses Sadie and Florence, who are still at home. He was a member of the Morellville lode, No. 50, I.O.O.F., and was well known and highly respected by all who knew him. The remains were interred in the Armagh cemetery on Friday and were followed by one of the largest funerals ever witnessed in that neighborhood.
