DENNIS HALL - On Saturday, July 6, 1912, Dennis Hall, a well known pioneer of this county passed away at the Warren Asylum, where he had been for the past twenty three years. Remains were brought for burial in the Homer Cemetery, located on the farm which Mr. Hall cleared and resided on for many years. He was one of the first settlers in the part of Homer Township, known as South woods, where he reared a family and became a prosperous farmer. About 1872, Mr. Hall went to Emporium and embarked in business in that new town, but a serious sunstroke, added to grief over the death of his oldest and of his youngest sons, finally dethroned his reason, and required his care in the asylum. He was quite violent for several years but of late has been feeble and quiet, dying at the age of 86. Mr. Hall was the youngest of the children of Dennis Hall, an early resident of Coudersport; David T. Hall, Maria, wife of Judge Lyman Nelson, Louisa, wife of Daniel Clark, Laverna, wife of Dennis Cheesbro, and Eunice, unmarried, constituted the family, all now dead. Funeral services held at residence of O. L. Hall on South East Street, Coudersport, Tuesday, July 9th at 2 o'clock. Rev. Geo. P. Donehoo officiating.
