EARL E. LOHR

  Earl E. Lohr, son of the late William J. and Mary Bittner Lohr, died at his 
home in Bridgeton, N.J., on Easter Sunday morning.  He had been an invalid for 
years and for several months had been confined to his bed.
  Mr. Lohr was born in Garrett where he lived for years.  After his marriage to 
Miss Margaret Beveridge, also of Garrett, he moved to Somerset where he lived 
for many years.  He was a meat cutter for the American Stores and was also 
associated in business with A. M. Glessner, operating a grocery and meat store 
in Somerset.
  Sometime later Mr. Lohr and his family moved to Meyersdale where he operated a 
meat market for a short while.
  Six years ago he moved to Bridgeton, N.J., where he was employed until his 
health failed.
  Surviving is his wife, Margaret Beveridge Lohr and one son, Ellsworth, a petty 
officer in the United States Navy.  Another son, Kenneth, was killed in an 
automobile accident less than two years ago.  One brother, John, is living in 
Ohio; his other brothers, Harvey, Walter and Hiram, and a sister, Mae, are dead.
  The funeral services were conducted at his home, Tuesday afternoon, at 2:30.
