   LEVI M. GARNER farmer, P.O. Tradesville, Pa., is the 
youngest son of John Garner, who inherited the farm on which 
his father died.  He was born at this place August 9, 1837, 
and on his marriage rented the farm until his father's 
death, when it was bequeathed to him at an appraisement, and 
he has since resided there.  On December 25, 1862, he was 
married to Miss Emma Wahl, daughter of John L. Wahl, 
formerly of Philadelphia, who was at that time a storekeeper 
and farmer at Tradesville, and subsequently returned to 
Philadelphia, where he died.  Mrs. Garner was born November 
7, 1842, and lived with her parents until her marriage.  To 
their union four children have been born:  Edward L., born 
September 19, 1868, now in a hardware store in Philadelphia; 
Herbert W., born July 23, 1875; Harry C., born October 11, 
1879; and Christie Ida, who died in infancy.  Mr. Garner has 
always been a farmer, and his house and buildings show him 
to be one of the progressive sort.  He and his wife are 
members of the Pleasantville German Reformed church, of 
which he is a trustee.  In politics he is a republican.
