Sarah Jane Negleyy
The engines of the Ligonier Valley railroad were draped with crepe on Wednesday as a mark of respect to the memory of Mrs. Sarah Jane Negley Mellon, widow of the late Judge Thomas Mellon, who died suddenly at her home in Pittsburg on Tuesday, aged 92 years. Judge Mellon was the founder of the Ligonier Valley railroad, and the major part of the stock is owned by members of the family.
