Danville Intelligencer, Danville, Friday, May 21. 1841
At Lancaster, on Friday evening May 7th of hemorrhage of the lungs,
John Cameron, Esq., aged 44. Mr. Cameron had been in delicate health for some years, but had been frequently in a great measure restored and no particularly unfavorable symptoms had been observable for some time before his dissolution. On Friday he had been driven out in carriage and suffered no apparent exhaustion. And it was while seated in his chair, we believe and without premonitory warning, that the effusion of blood took place, and closed his useful and respectable career in life. Mr. Cameron held one of the public offices in Dauphin county, under his brother-in-law, Gov. Shultze, and has filled sundry other situations of trust and responsibility; in all of which he sustained the character of an efficient and intelligent public officer and an honest man.

In Derry township, on Wednesday, the 19th of May, Robert Clark, aged about 26 years. In the death of this young man, society has lost a highly valuable and worthy member. Few young men ever possessed, in a higher degree, the confidence and esteem of his acquaintances, than the deceased; honorable and upright in all the transaction of life, he was universally respected by his fellow citizens.

Danville Intelligencer, Danville, Friday, September 4, 1846
At Rhersburg, on the 24th ult., Andrew D. Cool, Esq., Attorney-at-Law, aged 24 years. His funeral took place on the 25th.
He was an Odd Fellow, and thirty-five brethren of the Order, in full regalia, were present at the funeral. The procession was formed according to the rules of the Order, at the deceased brother’s father’s and proceeded to church, where an appropriate and touching sermon was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Gonsor, from these words, “If a man die, shall he live again?” After the sermon the procession proceeded to the grave. Not only were the brethren present, but the charter of the lodge, the insignia of office, the emblems, were all there, just as the deceased had often seen them in health, except that every thing was clothed in mourning. We could not but think it beautifully illustrative of that true brotherly love which knows no change in prosperity or adversity, in health or in sickness, in life or in death--. After the body had been consigned to the quiet tomb, according to the customs of the order, the procession returned, and at the solicitation of the father of the deceased, the brethren took dinner with him. Every thing was conducted in a solemn and impressive manner and few perhaps of the crowds present went away with a more unfavorable opinion of Odd Fellowship than they came with.
