Broadwater, George W.

  A well known farmer of Allegheny Township died suddenly on Monday afternoon at 
his home near Glencoe. Last Friday, Mr. Broadwater returned from the Western 
Maryland Hospital at Cumberland where he had gone three weeks previously to be 
treated for stomach trouble. When he returned home it was thought that his 
health had been restored. He was going about his home when he suddenly became 
ill and expired in a few minutes. He was aged 50 years. Mr. Broadwater was a 
fine, intelligent man, a great worker in his church, the Reformed, and had the 
esteem of all and his sudden death has been a great shock to many. Besides wife, 
the following children survive: Walter B., Youngstown, Ohio; Mrs. Howard Walker, 
Berlin; Mrs. Theo Crissman, Pittsburg; Mrs. Irene Miller, Cumberland; Miss 
Florence, Robert, Edward, Luke and Frank at home. The following are the brothers 
and sisters surviving: Chas. B. of North Jackson, Ohio; J. F. of Auburn, 
Washington; W. H. of Glencoe; Luke H. of Wilmington, Del.; Mrs. Sadie Hartman 
and Mrs. Jane Cole of Pittsburg; Mrs. Ella Kimmell of Finlay, Ohio. The funeral 
took place on Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. Mr. Broadwater's pastor, Rev. A. 
S. Kresge, officiating.
