MARY SHIDLER

  Irvin J. Maust last week received a telegram announcing the death of Mrs. Mary 
Shidler, of Goshen, Ind., a cousin of his who had notified him not long ago that 
she was in the last stages of tuberculosis.  Mrs. Shidler was a daughter of the 
late Aaron and Elizabeth Livengood Kimmel, and was born near Berlin, but came to 
Salisbury when a little girl, with her widowed mother, about the year 1879, and 
grew to womanhood here.  Later she married Rev. William Shidler, a native of 
Indiana, and a minister in the Church of the Brethren, who died at Bay St. 
Louis, Miss., within the last year, where the Shidler family resided at that 
time.
  Rev. Shidler's remains were shipped to Goshen, where they were interred, and 
his wife and children soon thereafter located at Goshen, where Mrs. Shidler 
contracted tuberculosis, which soon terminated in her death.  Full details of 
her death and funeral had not yet been learned when this obituary notice was 
written, but the funeral took place last Sunday forenoon.
  Mrs. Shidler was a good wife and mother, and above all a good woman in every 
way.  Two sons and one daughter are left to mourn her departure, the youngest 
child being 19 years old.  She has many relatives and friends in and about 
Salisbury, who will be sorry to learn of her death.
