BILGER, MRS. NANNIE J. - On the 10th inst., in this village of Consumption, Mrs. Nannie J., wife of James M. Bilger of New York--daughter of the late Jas. Culbertson. Funeral at the M. E. Church Friday morning at 10 o'clock. Mrs. B. was aged 82 years, 1 month and 14 days. She was married nearly fourteen years to her new bereaved husband, and lived with him nearly ten years in the cities of Philadelphia and New York. For thirteen months she has suffered affliction--nine of which she has been completely prostrated. For a number of months the fondest earthly object of her heart has been to return to her childhood's home--which was gratified in arriving here on the evening of the 14th ultimo. To the surprise of all she endured the journey with but little apparent injury. The weeks of her sojourn here have been marked with great suffering, but also much of the 10th inst., in the midst of loving, and attentive friends in the late home of her deceased father she slept in Jesus.
