AGED WOMAN WAS CALLED BY DEATH

Mrs. Elizabeth Hockley Passed Away on Friday Evening

Ill Less Than A Week

Was Wife Of Former Councilman Jacob Hockley

       Mrs. Elizabeth Hockley, wife of former Common Councilman Jacob Hockley, 
died on Friday evening at 6:05 o'clock, after an illness of less than a week. 
She seemed to be in perfect health on Sunday last, when she was suddenly seized 
with a spell that rendered her unconscious. On Monday and Tuesday, however, 
there was a pronounced improvement and attending physicians were impressed with 
prospects of her early recovery. On Wednesday there was a sudden change for the 
worse, when the patient lapsed into unconsciousness, from which she could not 
be revived.

HIGHLY ESTEEMED

       She was aged 63 years and was a native of Center Square, Cumberland 
county. Her maiden name was Marquart. After her marriage... (continued on page 
two) ...to Mr. Hockley they resided in Harrisburg and came to Lebanon about 
twenty years ago, residing most of that time at No. 49 North Twelfth Street, 
where she died. In her long residence in that locality she won the good will 
and esteem of her neighbors, and numbered as her friends a host of people in 
other sections of the city, all of whom unite in the bereaved family in 
mourning her loss. She was a member of Centenery Methodist Episcopal church, 
and was held in highest regard by the members of the congregation.

THOSE WHO SURVIVE

       Besides her husband, she leaves eight children, John, Frank, Alfred and 
Grant, all of whom are married and live in this city, and William, Grace, Owen 
and George, living at home. A step mother, Mrs. Kate Marquart, resides at York. 
Mrs. Joseph Henny, of Bloomfield, Mrs. Kate Tolen and Mrs. Joseph McCabe, of 
York, are sisters, and Samuel Marquart, of Oakville, PA is a brother.
       The funeral will be held on Tuesday afternoon, and interment will be 
made at Mt. Lebanon cemetery.
