MARGARET LEE RESH

  Mrs. Margaret Lee Resh, aged 70 years and nine months, widow of the late John 
Resh, died Wednesday morning, September 24th, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. 
Laura Caton, of Meyersdale, the result of a fractured leg and shock sustained 
two weeks earlier when she fell down a flight of stairs in the Caton home.  
Because of her age and the weakened condition she was in, she was unable to 
recover from the severe shock she received and nine days after the injury passed 
quietly away.  Her husband preceded her to the grave about twenty years ago.
  Mrs. Resh was a member of the Church of the Brethren in which she was always 
an active worker and was well beloved by all the church people, as well as her 
family and many friends, who keenly regret her passing.
  She is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Rebecca Lee McGrath and Mrs. Rachel 
Pritts, both living in the state of Washington, two brothers, Harman H. Lee of 
National City, Cal., and Dr. D. R. Lee of Arcadia, Nebraska, also by the 
following children: Mrs. Elizabeth Neff and Mrs. Laura Caton of Meyersdale, Mrs. 
Lydia Finch of Fort Worth, Texas, Daniel Resh of York, Pa., John Resh of 
Harrison, this county.  Three sons preceded her to the grave, Milton Resh of 
Cumberland and Elias and Thomas, who died in infancy.
