EDWIN H. LEVY.
A Respected Citizen of Northwood Passed Away.

  Saturday last at 6.40 o'clock Edwin H. Levy, one of the best known 
and highly respected citizens of this community, died at his home at 
Northwood, of plural pneumonia.  About one week ago,  Mr. Levy caught a 
cold which quickly went to his lungs and caused pneumonia to set in.  
Being a man well up in years, his constitution  was not strong enough 
to battle with the ravages of the disease, he gradually grew weaker 
until the end came this morning at the above mentioned time.
  Edwin H. Levy was born at Geryville, Buck County [sic], January 25, 
1842.  He resided in the southern part of the state until he reached 
young manhood, coming to Tyrone about forty-five years ago. Shortly 
after coming here he  was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Snyder, who 
with the following children survive to mourn a loving husband and 
father's death: Edwin, H., Chicago; Mrs. Annie Beyers, Howard W., 
Charles F., at home; Mrs. Jesse McMahon, Beaver Falls; Mrs. Harry 
Robinson, Tyrone and Mrs. Chester Hughes, Altoona.  He is also survived 
by the following brothers and sisters: Emanuel, Jeremiah and Mrs. Mary 
Hendricks, of Philadelphia.  Mr. Levy was a faithful employee of West 
Virginia Pulp and paper company; he was a member and regular attendant 
of the First Lutheran church.  He was also a member of the W.V.P. and 
P. Relief association.
  Funeral services were held at the home at Northwood on Monday morning 
at 10 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Dr. Aurand, of York.  Interment in 
Grand View cemetery.
