      __________________

      OBITUARY, After a long and painful illness extending over a period of twenty-five years, Mrs. Levi P. Martin (nee Gingrich) passed away on Tuesday evening. For the past seven years the deceased had to be handled and care for very tenderly at ties the least touch or strain causing exquisite pain. She bore her sufferings with great Christian fortitude, always cheerful and patiently waiting for the end. A husband and five children survive her, besides a large circle of relatives. The funeral took place on Friday forenoon. The family have the sympathy of the people of the vicinity.
