           NORFOLK BUSINESS MAN DIES SUDDENLY IN PHILADELPHIA

  Clevaland Manning, Paper Company Head, Succumbs While Awaiting Operation

Cleveland Manning, 64, president of the Old Dominion Paper Company and 
prominently known in local business circles for the last 25 years, died 
Thursday night in a Philadelphia hospital while awaiting an operation for 
the removal of a piece of candy which became lodged in his lung during the 
Christmas holidays.  He had been in ill-health for several months.
A native of Portsmouth, Mr. Manning had lived in Norfolk practically all his 
life and had been connected with the paper concern for about 47 years.  His 
wife, Mrs. Fannie Nash Manning, accompanied him to Philadelphia where they 
arrived Thursday morning and was with him at the time of his death.
Because of his weakened condition due to ill-health which had beset him for 
several months and augmented by complications which followed the lodging of 
the candy in the lung, attending physicians postponed the operation 
Thursday.  He died about 10 o'clock Thursday night.
Starting his career with the paper company as an office boy in 1885, Mr. 
Manning gradually rose to the office of president to which he was appointed 
in 1910 and retained until his death.  He was a member of the B.P.O.E., the 
Woodmen of the World and the Travelers Protective Association.
Besides his wife, the survivors include a brother, William Manning, of 
Roanoke, and one sister, Mrs. John Gibbs, of Norfolk.  Mr. Manning made his 
residence at 629 West Twenty-sixth street.
The body will arrive this morning in Norfolk and will be taken to the 
funeral apartments of Flynn & O'Connor, Portsmouth.  Funeral arrangements 
are pending.
