Aftern an illness of eight weeks, Paul H. Hoover, of 102 Victoria avenue, died 
yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Mercy hospital.  The funeral services 
will be conducted at noon today at the residence of Mrs. Z. T. Smith, mother of 
Mrs. Hoover, at 2 Ransom place.  Rev. John Long Jackson, rector of St. Martin's 
Episcopal church, and Dr. A. A. McGeachy, pastor of the Second Presbyterian 
church, will officiate at the service.  The burial will be in Elmwood cemetery.

Mr. Hoover came to Charlotte about six years ago from Lincolnton, where he was 
born, and accepted a position with the Ed. Mellon company, remaining with this 
concern until last year when he became connected with Claude Brown, Inc.  He 
was a man of fine personality and made a large number of friends, aside from 
possessing marked executive ability and excellent qualities of salesmanship.

He was 30 years old, and was the son of the late J. Calvin Hoover and Mrs. 
Jennie Helm Hoover.  Prior to coming to Charlotte most of his life was spent in 
Lincolnton.  Mr. Hoover was a member of the Episcopal church and was a strong 
believer in the principles and teachings of his denomination.

His wife was Miss Willie Smith, daughter of the late Z. T.Smith, at one time 
sheriff of Mecklenburg county, and Mrs. Smith.

Surviving besides his wife and mother, are three sisters and two brothers:  
Mrs. Harry Page and Mrs. James Shuford of Lincolnton; Miss Emma Hoover, of 
Charlotte; Helm Hoover, of Hickory; and Eric Hoover, of Akron, Ohio.
