He had been ill five months, and was for a time in a Pittsburgh hospital, but specialists of that city and of Baltimore, who were called in consultation, were powerless to relieve his condition. His wife, who was Miss Margaret Melvin, of this place, and eight children under eighteen years of age, survive. He also leaves his parents and four sisters. The funeral service was held Wednesday of last week, and interment was in the Oakmont Cemetery at Waynesburg, Pa."
