        SAMUEL JOHNSON, who had been acting as a gas station attendant
    for Molton H. DAVIS, of West Chester, at a service station at Church 
    and Main streets, in Parkesburg, was found dead in bed at his home 
    yesterday. He was 52 years of age.
        When Gurt FORD called at the station about 9:30 yesterday morning
    and found it still closed he notified Chief of Police Earl SHIPMAN and
    they broke into his home and found him dead in bed. Dr. F. A. RIEMANN
    was called and CORONER CRESTON I. SHOEMAKER was notified
    and the body was turned over to James W. WILDE, undertaker. Death
    was due to a heart attack.
        JOHNSON is known to have a brother and two sisters who have been
    notified. Up until noon today, however, no arrangements had been made
    for the funeral.
