Edward Pancake Killed By Fall From Scaffold. He Was Engaged In Painting.
     Edward Pancake, aged 37 years, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Pancake, formerly of this city, but now residing on a farm near Burlington, this county, was killed Friday from the effects of a fall. He was on the C. and O. round house engaged in painting the new work and fell from scaffolding about twenty feet in height.

He alighted with his abdomen on an anchor bolt and it was evident from the first that he was dangerously hurt. Dr. Rathburn was summoned and his examination of the injured man disclosed the fact that he had ruptured a blood vessel and was bleeding to death internally. An ambulance was hastily called and started with the man to Keller's hospital, but he died enroute to this city. His body was taken to Bingaman and Jones undertaking parlors on Center street where he was prepared for burial.

PIKE COUNTY MAN FREEZES TO DEATH
     WAVERLY, O., Dec. 30.--Pike County's first fatality from cold weather in several years was recorded Tuesday evening about 5 o'clock, when Zacharia Pancake, 77, was found dead in his home at Omega, north of here on the N. & W.
     Neighbors and friends noticed that Mr. Pancake had not been about for about three days and when Thomas Overly, a neighbor, investigated last evening, he found Mr. Pancake dead.
     Mr. Overly went to the home and called several times and when he failed to receive a response tried the door and found it open. Going inside he found Mr. Pancake on the floor of his living room and in front of a stove.
     Coroner Dan J. Wilson was called and rendered a verdict of death due to freezing. It is thought that Mr. Pancake got up during the night to build a fire and was overcome with exposure while working in front of his stove. Plenty of fuel was kept in the house.
     The body was removed to a local morgue and prepared for burial. Funeral and burial plans are indefinite pending the arrival of a nephew, Carl Pancake, of New York City. Mr. Pancake also leaves a niece, Mrs. William Woodn, of this place.

EFFIE PANCAKE DIED TUESDAY AT SPRINGFIELD
Mrs. Effie G. Pancake, age 70 years, widow of the late Henry Pancake, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. H. M. Krapp of Springfield, O., early Tuesday evening. Her daughter in Ironton, Mrs. Ewing M. Pyles, was advised by wire of her mother's rather unexpected demise. The deceased and venerable lady visited the home of Mrs. Pyles for two months last fall and upon many previous occasions, and was quite widely known in Ironton. She had not been ailing to any alarming extent and announcement of her death proved shocking and sorrowful to the members of her family and to a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. Mrs. Pancake was one of the good, old-fashioned mothers, whose main interest and whose abiding faith rested in her home and children. She had been actively engaged in church work throughout the greater portion of her life and at the time of her death was a member of the First Presbyterian church of Springfield. She was born and reared at Omega, Ohio, and while definite arrangements have not been made for the funeral, in all likelihood the rites will be held in Springfield and the body taken to Omega for burial. She is survived by a number of grown children, as follows: Ralph of Hamilton, Ill., Hoyt D. of Carthage, Ill., Carl of Garden City, Long Island, Mrs. Jacob Pyles of Portsmouth, Noel of Springfield, Mrs. Ewing Pyles of Ironton and Mrs. Krapp of Springfield.
