IRENEUS PILE

  Ireneus Pile, 83, former county surveyor, school teacher and Sunday school 
teacher, died Tuesday from burns sustained when he was destroying brush at the 
home of his only surviving brother, Leman Pile, in Middlecreek Township, where 
he had resided.
  It was said that the fire reached such proportions that Mr. Pile was unable to 
extinguish it.  Clothing was burned from his back and his body blistered.
  Mr. Pile was a son of Josiah and Margaret (Putman) Pile, both of Middlecreek 
Township.
  Funeral services will be conducted Friday at 10:30 from Pile's church, with 
the Rev. L. W. Gress officiating.  There will be no viewing of the body.  Mills 
and Mickey, Rockwood morticians, have charge of arrangements.

Meyersdale Republican, May 22, 1941
