Death of Austin Barker 

Austin Parker Barker, aged 15 years, died at the home of his parents, V. S. 
and Cassie W. Barker of Ebensburg at 4:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon.  The 
cause of his death was due to heart trouble.  Deceased had been ill for some 
time but until about two weeks ago was able to be around.  He was of a very 
cheerful and friendly disposition and had many friends who will mourn his 
loss.  Several days ago he became much worse and sank rapidly until 
Thursday when he passed quietly away.  He is survived by two sisters in 
addition to his parents; they are Mrs. Milton W. Connell of Philadelphia and 
Miss Edna, at home.  The funeral will take place sometime Saturday 
afternoon, no definite arrangements having yet been made.
