Charles Harrison died last Friday morning as a result of an injury received while working in the coal mines at this place, four years ago. In March 1911 he submitted to the amputation of his right leg which was the injured member with the hope that his health might be permanently restored, but the deadly poison has scattered through his body and would not yield to any treatment. The decline was gradual until on Friday morning the tired heart refused to pulsate longer and the poor sufferer slipped away from earth. Charles Harrison the son of Robert Harrison and wife was born in Scranton, Feb. 22, 1881 and at the time of his death was in the 33rd year of his life. He was married to Miss Edith Carter March 8, 1905. The wife and three children, father, mother, two sisters and five brothers mourn his departure from this life. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Raymond Monday afternoon and the burial was in the Scranton cemetery.
