Death notice:

1846. 9 April, in Hopewell township, Rev. Andrew McDonald, aged 68 years. He graduated at Jefferson College 27 October, 1803. After studying theology under Rev. John McMillen, D. D., he was licensed to preach in 1806, and was installed pastor of the Mt. Carmel and Sharon congregations (then known as White Oak Flats and Flaugherty) 24 August, 1809, continuing in this relation for 13 years with great success; but owing to mental derangement, the connections were severed. A few months prior to his death, however, he recovered his reason, and was able to write a letter to his family, mente sana.
