Death of James Costlow

  Mr. James Costlow, a well known and highly respected citizen of 
Cambria county, he having been County Commissioner from 1885 to 1888, 
died at his home in Wilmore on Friday last, aged about 82 years.
  The deceased who formerly lived on a farm in Adams Township, near the 
present town of Dunlo was twice married, several children among whom 
are Peter, David and Thomas, children of the first wife, and Edward of 
Lovett and Fred of Vintondale, by his second marriage, survive him.
  Mr. Costlow was an honest industrious man, an excellent neighbor, a 
good citizen and a faithful member of the Catholic church.  Of late 
years he was much afflicted by rheumatism, which became chronic and was 
eventually the cause of his death.  He is survived by two brothers, 
John [remainder of sentence is totally faded]
  The funeral which took place after a high mass of requiem and an 
eloquent and appropriate sermon by Rev. Father James R. Egan in St. 
Bartholomew's church, Wilmore, on Monday morning in the cemetery nearby 
was well attended by the people of the community in which he had been 
so well and favorably known.
