CHARLES GRIMM DEAD.
Information received that He had Been
Killed in Pittsbnrg.

Killed in Pittsbnrg.
Last evening Mr.. John W. Grimm
living at the corner of John and
Raleigh streets received a telegram
that his son, Charles Grimm, had been
killed at Pittsburg, and asking what
disposition should be made of the body.
The dispatch gave no particulars as to
how he had been killed, neither has
any further information been received
to-day. Mr.. Grimm took the first
train for Pittsburg, and said that he
would telegraph Mr.. Wilen the first
thing this morning. The remains will
however be brought here for burial.
Charles Grimm was until a short time
ago'in the employ Of THE WORLD as
stenographer and book keeper. He
left here and went to Roanoke to visit
his brother Frank. Some weeks ago
he returned and after remaining here
Nat his home short time, went to
NPlttsburgh. This was about the 18th
OF October. The last letter received
from him was on Friday last. He had
been unable to procure position as
stenographer or book keeper. About
ten days ago he secured place as
shipping clerk for bridge building
firm but was dismissed on account Of
some misunderstanding between the
manager and the company in regard to
his appointment. Charles Grimm was
universally well liked in Martinsbnrg.
He Was well educated and although
quite young, his chances for the future
We're bright. His many friends will be
surprised to hear Of his sudden death.
Later-a telegram states that Charles
Grimm was killed by accident while en-
route from Pittsburgh to Altoona, Pa.
No particulars.
