Annetta Rosanna, wife of Rev. Peter G. Bell, died at 12:07 o'clock yesterday afternoon at the Jacob Good homestead, Twenty-third street above Third avenue. For more than ten years she had been a patient sufferer from paralysis agitans, but for almost a week she had been in a semi-unconscious state and was thus spared the pangs of the final struggle. Mrs. Bell, who was Miss Hatch, of Cincinnati, O., was born April 7, 1825, and was married in August, 1861, in Springfield, O., where her home then was and where Rev. Bell had attended the Wittenberg Theological seminary. Rev. Bell's first charge was at Tarentum, Pa., those succeeding being New Castle, Ind., Polo, Ill., Springfield, Ill., and Indiana, Pa. For eight years he has resided in Altoona, having retired from regular service in his calling in order that he might minister to the wants of his invalid wife, who looked to no other hand than his to guide her tenderly down into the valley of the shadow of death. These children survive: Mrs. Ida M. Spaulding, of South Norridgewock, Me; Warner H. Bell, editor of the Evening Gazette, and Frank W. Bell, of thee Philadelphia North American.
