Benjamin Herbert Mosteller, Jr., 39-year-old employee of the Downingtown Iron 
Works, died in the Chester County Hospital, here, at 9 o'clock last night, from 
injuries received a week ago when a heavy iron beam struck him in the abdomen 
while at work. An emergency operation performed shortly after he was admitted to 
the hospital last Friday, failed to save his life.

Mr. Mosteller was born in this county, a son of the late Benjamin H. Mosteller, 
and had been making his home with J. Emmor Green, at Green Hill. His mother, who 
is seriously ill in a Malvern nursing home survives, as does also his wife, Miss 
Gladys Ludwick, and their children Benjamin Herbert 3rd, Doris, Marvin and 
Barbara Ann. A brother David also survives.

The deceased was a member of the Fellowship Club, of Downingtown, and had a host 
of friends.
