MARSHALL DEWEY WILHELM

  Marshall Dewey Wilhelm, a son of the late Norman and Sally Wright Wilhelm, 
died at his home in Greenville Township, March 3, 1940, at the age of 41 years, 
8 months and 27 days.  His death was caused by Bright's disease of the kidneys, 
and dropsy, and he died in the Wenzel Hospital, Meyersdale, Pa.
  He is survived by his mother, also by his wife, whose maiden name was Daisy 
McKenzie, both of Greenville Township, where Mr. Wilhelm operated a small farm.  
Surviving also are these children: Carl and Bernard, Silva and Helen, all at 
home, and these brothers and sisters: Curtin W., of Greenville Township; Frank 
W., Mrs. Rose Spreadberry, Mrs. Myrtle Shanaberger, and Mrs. Naomi Werner, all 
of Akron, Ohio.
  Funeral services were held Tuesday, at 2:30 p.m., at the Evangelical and 
Reformed Church, at Pocahontas, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Gindlesperger.  
The burial arrangement was in charge of Stanley M. Thomas, mortician, of 
Salisbury, with interment in the Greenville Cemetery.
  By the death of Mr. Wilhelm, Greenville Township has lost a good citizen, and 
his family a kind and devoted husband and father.  He was a lifelong resident of 
Greenville Township, and in addition to his relatives, had many other friends.
