We had our doubts as to the truth of the article published in last week’s ‘Post’ from a Union county paper describing the strange manifestations at the funeral of Mrs Wm. Searls of Lewisburg, but while in Union county on Sunday we learned from a nephew of undertaker Ginter that the raps against the floor were so violent that the jarring nearly threw the corpse off the trustle-board.
