EMMA PETRY DELOZIER

  Emma Petry DeLozier, wife of George G. DeLozier, died at the home of her 
daughter, Mrs. J. W. Hartman, Glencoe, Pa., Wednesday morning, Nov. 21st, after 
an illness of almost a year.
  She was born at Lonaconing, Md., Jan. 21, 1873, and was aged 72 years and 10 
months.  She was a daughter of Frank and Mary (Walker) Petry.  In her infancy 
her parents moved to Salisbury, Pa., where they lived the remainder of their 
lives.  She grew to womanhood in Salisbury and lived there until her marriage to 
George G. DeLozier 46 years ago.
  She is survived by her husband and seven children - Fred W. and G. Albert of 
Connellsville; Alma, wife of D. A. Smith, Boswell; Mary, wife of J. W. Hartman, 
Glencoe; W. Gerber, Cumberland; Arthur A., Hyndman, and Emma, wife of James 
Ludy, Berlin.  One son, Frank Howard, preceded her in death by a number of 
years.  Also surviving are two brothers, Frank H. and William A. Petry of 
Salisbury, 21 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.  Two grandsons, who are 
serving their country, Chester A. Smith, S 1/c, stationed in the New Hebrides 
Islands, and 1st Sgt. James E. Hartman, in Atsuga, Japan - could not attend 
their grandmother's funeral.
  In her early girlhood she united with the Reformed Church at Salisbury and 
held her membership there until after taking up her residence in Glencoe in 
1910, when she moved her membership to the Glencoe Reformed Church, of which she 
remained a faithful member always attending Sunday school and church services 
until her health failed and she was unable to attend.  She was also a Charter 
member of the Ladies Aid Society.
  Funeral services were conducted Saturday afternoon, Nov. 24th, in the Glencoe 
Reformed Church at 2 o'clock, by her pastor, Rev. J. E. Gindlesperger.  
Interment was in the Mt. Lebanon Cemetery, under the direction of Johnson & Son, 
Berlin morticians.
