  His wife, Mrs. Susan Barnhart survives, and two children, William, Baltimore; 
and Mrs. Glenn Baer, Meyersdale; and an adopted daughter, Ruth, at home.  A 
brother, Norman, Meyersdale, and two sisters, Mrs. Mary Swindell, Meyersdale, 
and Mrs. Dorothy Ohler, Baltimore, also survive.
  Funeral services will be held Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, in the
