  MARGARET WALKER SHIVELY
  
    News has been received in Salisbury of the death of Mrs. S. Margaret Walker 
  Shively, second daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. George K. Walker who located 
  in Salisbury in 1877, coming here from Frostburg, Md.  Mrs. Shively was born in 
  Salisbury, Jan. 15, 1881, and grew to womanhood here.  In 1905 the Walker family 
  left Salisbury, after Mr. Walker had conducted a general store here for a period 
  of 28 years, and located in Berlin.  From Berlin the family moved to Johnstown, 
  and later to Greensburg, where Margaret Walker was united in marriage with 
  Edward C. Shively.
    Two children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Shively, one of whom, George, survives 
  with his father.  Mrs. Shively died on the 15th of last November, aged 48 years 
  and 10 months.  None of her numerous friends here learned of her death until 
  very recently, when the sad tidings came to Mrs. A. J. Mittlestaedt by letter.  
  During the awful epidemic of influenza in 1918, Mrs. Shively was stricken hard 
  by that disease, the after-effects of which finally caused her death.  She is 
  said to have suffered intensely, and almost continually from the time she was 
  stricken by influenza until death came to her relief.  Several surgical 
  operations were resorted to, but they failed to bring the desired relief.
    In addition to her husband and one son, she is also survived by two sisters, 
  and one brother, namely, Mrs. C. I. Riehl, Mrs. C. Frederick Schartz and Charles 
  H. Walker, all of Greensburg.
