PEYTON H. RAMER

  On Sunday morning, Feb. 2, at 2:30 o'clock, Peyton H. Ramer passed away 
peacefully at his home in Martinsburg, W.Va., after an illness of several years.  
He is survived by his wife, who ministered to him during the years of his 
illness with unfailing devotion.  He is also survived by several brothers and 
sisters.  Funeral services were held at his late home on Tuesday, Feb. 4, at 
2:30 p.m.
  Mr. and Mrs. Ramer lived in Meyersdale from 1914 to 1924, during which time 
Mr. Ramer was the proprietor of the Colonial Hotel.  From here they went to 
Martinsburg, W.Va., which had been their former home, and for several years 
after their return to that place he was proprietor of Hotel Berkley which was 
established by his father many years ago and which he had managed in his younger 
days.  Ill health forced him to retire several years ago.
  While in Meyersdale Mr. and Mrs. Ramer took an active interest in local 
affairs and made many warm friends, who regret his demise and sympathize with 
Mrs. Ramer in her bereavement.
