no response which fact he reported
to me. | then went up stairs but

door and opened it. The rush Of
gas from the room almost stihed
both OF us but we managed to get
the windows up and as soon as pos

On the bed lying in an angular po-
sition was Mrs. Whalley and kneel-
ing by the side of the bed | saw
Mr.. Whalley. His face was buried
in the bed clothing and his arms
were extended. My son Abraham
took hold of Mr.. Whalley's arm
and felt his pulse but could detect
no signs of life. Mrs. Whalley
was lying on the bed with her face
up which saved her life. As soon
as possible we summoned DR..
McComas and some neighbors, and
they worked manfully for two
hours to resuscitate Mr.. Whalley
but without avail. Mrs. Whalley
was carried across the hall into an
other room where she soon revived
under the skill of Drs. j. Lee and
III. W. McComas, and was able to
tell the facts as to how the accident
happened which are about as follows,
tersely told: Il was reading a
chapter In the bible and was sud-
denly taken i'll and told Mr.. Whal-
ley to bring the slop jar to the bed
at the same time handing him the
bible. He took the book and laid
it on the chair after he had arose to

An examination of the remain.
of Mr.. Whalley was made by DR.
McComas and he stated that lif,
had been extinct at least two hours
before the discovery was made
The remains were prepared fo'
burial by Undertaken Ault, encaset
in a neat walnut casket and sent t,
Cumberland (Mr. Whalley's forme
honey for interment. The funera
took place Tuesday.
Mr.. Whalley was born in Eng
land about thirty years ago an1
came to this country with his par
ents and settled at Cumberlan,
when but a mere lad. He acquired
a thorough electrical knowledg
and was assistant superintendent
of the Frostburg electrical works
but resigned that position early las
spring and came as electrician il
charge OF the Oakland electrlca
works.
On July 16, 1891, he was mar
ried to Miss Mary Thomas, o
Frostburg.
| Mr.. Whalley was a Mason of tn
thirty-second degree and a Hepta
soph, and was a member of tn
Reformed Episcopal church.
In his death, as every one VIII
knew him will testify, Oaklan,
looses a young man of ability,
perfect gentleman and wife loose
a devoted and loving husband.

moved to their farm one mile from
Oakland. They lived happily to-
gethcr until June Is, 1887, when
separated by death. The good wife
was taken and the husband left to
struggle with the relatives Of life
alone. Both were faithful and con-
sistent members of the Methodist
Episcopal church, with which they
identified themselves in early life.
Their first home was open to well
come and administer comfort to
weary Inherent ministers. To this
class, and all other worthy persons,
the door was never closed. Hun
dreds have partaken of the generous
hospitality of this kind family.
The deceased served two terms as
Judge of the Orphans Court in this
county. AT the last ection he de-
clined to be renominated, in conse-
quence of i'll health. He had two
children, Elizabeth J. and Truman
W. The daughter died October rs,
1857, at the age of l3. Truman W.,
with his wife and four children, sur
vive him and occupy the home near
Oakland.
Much might be said in commen-
dation of our deceased brother. All
who knew him will say eulogy is
unnecessary. He was a public spir-
tied man, ready to assist in what he
believed to be for the general good.
His council was frequently sought
by those in responsible positions.
AS a father kind and affectionate;
as neighbor obliging; as friend
true to the last, as a christian, mod
est and unassuming.
During the last twelve months Of
his life Brother Casteel spent a
good portion Of his time reading his
bible and making preparation for
the change he felt was soon to come.
During his protracted illness he was
patient and expressed willingness
to give up this life with a bright
! prospect Of a better life. One Of
| the last things he took special in
terest in was the erection Of the M.
+. church in Onkland, to which he
gave literally. Financially his life
was a success; being energetic and
industrious he, with his son, became
owners of valuable property.
The remains were inferred in the
cemetery at Oakland, January III.
A large number of friends and
neighbors were in attendance. APP
propriate services were conducted
at the home by Revs. b. lson, Geo.
W. Kepler and J. NJ. Davis. ID.
