Mrs. Sara Heitzenrater.

The deceased was born March 15, 1844, in Schuylkill county, Pa., a daughter of Daniel and Catherine Sutter. When five years of age, Mrs. Heitzenrater came to Covode with her parents and settled on what is known as the Sutter farm.

Heitzenrater and moved to a farm near Round Top church where she lived until about five years ago when she and her husband moved to the Bungalow near Trade City.
