Joseph Stoner, a prominent resident of Scott township, dropped dead Sunday evening while sitting in his parlor conversing with members of his family. He had been well as usual during the day and did not utter a word of complaint until he suddenly clasped one hand over his heart exclaiming "Oh" as he fell to the floor.
Members of the family rushed to his side but they found him breathing his last.
A messenger was dispatched to Harlensburg for Dr. D. T. Cleland. He came at once but could do nothing toward reviving the patient as the last spark of life had fled. Heart disease was the cause of his death.
Joseph Stoner was the son of Jacob Stoner of Scott township. He was 58 years old and had lived in the township all of his life and was widely known throughout adjoining townships. He was a member of Herman Presbyterian Church and an honest an upright citizen. He was married to a Miss Roberts, daughter of Samuel Roberts of New Castle, and by the union had six children. They are J.E. Stoner who is in Breckinridge, Col.; William of Harlensburg, Robert, Maud and Della who are at home and Howard who is a student at Slippery Rock State Normal wschool and will graduate in the spring.
