ALFRED NEWLIN PULLIN

  Alfred Newlin Pullin was born Dec. 3, 1860, and passed to his great reward on 
Feb. 26, 1932, at the age of 71 years, 2 months and 23 days.  He had not been 
well the last few years, but was able to be up and around until about two days 
before he died.
  Mr. Pullin was born in Addison Township and lived all of his life on the same 
farm.  He was an industrious and upright citizen, never doing anything to harm 
any one.
  On March 22, 1896, he was united in marriage to Miss Mary C. Turney, also of 
Addison Township, who preceded him to the grave over seven years ago.  To them 
were born five children, Howard and John, at home; Wilbur, of Cumberland, Md.; 
Floyd, of Somerfield; and Carlton, of Markleysburg.  He is also survived by 
eight grandchildren.  His only sister, Mrs. Mary Kretchman, of Confluence, 
passed away on May 30, 1931, and his brother, Joseph W. Pullin, of Hudson, Iowa, 
passed away on Dec. 20, 1931.  He was one of three children that lived to grow 
up and all passed away within nine months.
  Funeral services were held on Tuesday, March 1, at 2 p.m., in his late home, 
and at 2:30 p.m. in the church in Addison.  Rev. Pollock of Addison had charge 
of the services.  Undertaker H. B. Rishebarger of Addison had charge of the 
burial in the beautiful Addison Cemetery.
  The pallbearers were Leonard Williams, Charles Williams, Ray Nicklow, Charles
