TRAINER, James

His Body Recovered.
More than a week ago James Trainer, a well-known Mt. Savage saloon keeper, disappeared from his place of business and no trace of him could be had. Tuesday at noon, while two men were driving along the road about half a mile east of Mt. Savage, they saw the body of a man lying in the woods about 79 feet from the road. They recognized it as the person of James Trainer, and the people of the village were notified. A coroner's jury held an inquest and rendered a verdict that Trainer came to his death from exposure. Deceased was about 40 years old, was married but was separated from his wife, who resides in this city. The remains were interred at 4 o'clock that afternoon.

TRESSLER, Mrs. Catherine Bird

An aged Meyersdale resident died in Meyersdale Community Hospital last Thursday, two days after she was involved in an automobile accident just south of Meyersdale. Mrs. Catherine Tressler, 77, wife of Joseph L. Tressler, Beachley Street, succumbed to a coronary occlusion in the local hospital. Coroner Robert H. Halverson, who investigated, said that the accident in which she was involved was secondary, and therefore an inquest will probably be unnecessary. The accident in which Mrs. Tressler was involved occurred on Tuesday afternoon, July 14, on Route 219, about one-half mile south of Meyersdale. Mr. Tressler, who was driving the family car, was making a left hand turn from Route 219 to the Ralph Laughery Body Shop, where he was taking his car for repairs. As Tressler turned from 219, he was involved in a collision with a car driven by Robert Crissey, 27, also of Meyersdale, who was traveling in the opposite direction. Both Mr. and Mrs. Tressler were removed to Meyersdale Community Hospital. Mrs. Tressler suffered lacerations to the scalp, crushed ribs, and was in extreme shock. Her death, however, was caused by a heart attack. Mr. Tressler was also injured in the accident and remains a patient at the hospital. He suffered a fractured leg and knee and lacerations to the scalp. He is said to be in improved condition. Mr. Tressler served a number of years on the Meyersdale borough council. Mrs. Catherine Bird Tressler was born on August 20, 1880, in Summit Township, a daughter of the late Orville and Hulda (Shultz) Bird. Surviving are her husband, mentioned previously, and two children, Mrs. Roland Maust, Crafton, Ohio; the Rev. J. Ward Tressler, Lansing, Mich.; one sister, Mrs. Maude Suder, Meyersdale RD 2, and four grandchildren. She was a member of the Meyersdale Brethren Church. Friends were received at the Konhaus Funeral Home, Meyersdale, where services were conducted Sunday, the Rev. Ralph C. Hall, pastor of Meyersdale Brethren Church, officiated. Interment was in Meyersdale Union Cemetery.

TROUTMAN, Mrs. Ann

Tuesday morning as the passenger train northward bound was approaching Hopewell it struck and killed Mrs. Ann Troutman, widow of the late Jacob Troutman. She had spent the night at Langdondale and was returning to her home at Hopewell when the accident occurred. She had just stepped onto the railroad, which has a footpath at that point, near the Simon Foundry, when the engine struck her. The woman was hard of hearing, which was a factor in her being struck. The road has a sharp curve at that point and it was impossible for the engineer or the fireman to see her in time. She was killed almost instantly, breathing but a couple times after being struck. The only mark, on her was a contusion on her head. She was aged about 70 years and is survived by three sons and two daughters.
