HARSHBERGER.- On the 21st of April in Somerset Co., Pa., of dropsy, Sister Sarah Harshberger, aged 34 years, 7 months and 2 days. Sister Harshberger was troubled with phthisic(sic) from childhood, and was much of the time confined to the house. She seldom had the privilege of attending church on account of her condition and the distance she lived from the church of her faith. Years ago she gave her heart to God and united with the Mennonite Church. Several months ago she desired to remember by the bread and wine the sufferings of our Lord. She was buried in the family graveyard. Services by Samuel Blough from Isaiah 38:1.
