Body Found on Tussey Mt.

Herald of Feb. 28, 1895

The lifeless body of Jacob Fair, about 37, of Entriken was found on top of Tussey Mountain on the road leading from Clover Creek to Cove Station by Jacob Dilling and other persons from near Fredericksburg on their way to the Broad Top coal mines. The body was placed upon a sled and taken to Cove Station, where the Huntingdon County coroner examined it and determined that Fair died of Natural causes while returning from a sale in the Cove.

A severe accident befell Mrs. D.M. Replogle. While driving, her sleigh was upset and resulted in the breaking of her arm.

Williamsburg Borough Council granted an electric light company the privilege of putting a light plant in that town. The light was to be furnished at the rate of 36 cents per light per month.

Farmers in many parts of the Cove were feeding wild turkeys and other game that would otherwise have perished due to the severe weather.

A fire was discovered on the roof of the home occupied by H.E. Bowers on North Market Street.
