WAGELEY, Mrs. Susan Stewart
Again another noble woman has passed from time to eternity, this time the beloved wife of Mr T B Wagley[sic] of New Creek WV, at the age of 51 years and 28 days, of tuberculosis of the lungs. Mrs Wagley was born at Kitzmiller, now Blaine WV, March 1, 1860. Her father moved near Ridgeville, Hampshire County, now Mineral County, when she was two years of age. She leaves a husband and four children, namely Bessie, Mary, Harry W and Mrs Margaret Dicken and Elsie Leigh to mourn their loss. She died on March 29th, almost as calmly and peacefully as if going into a quiet slumber, alas, the sleep of death. For a great many years, she has been preparing to meet her God; was a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. The gentle footstep will be missed and the vacant chair in that desolate home can never be filled as of yore. She has passed beyond the dark mystical river of death, only to stand on the fair banks of the river of life, where "God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain for the former things are passed away."

He had not been well since getting a fall about one year ago, which resulted in the mashing of his right knee. After nearly recovering from that accident he was attacked by some serious bowel trouble last November, since which time he had been confined to the house. Last Saturday directly after dinner he was sitting up talking to Capt. Jas Parrill, when, without warning, he fell back in his chair and was dead in a few moments. Mr. Wagoner married Miss Ida Moon, of Garrett Co, Md., who, with one daughter, Miss Maud, survives him. He also leaves one brother, Geo E. Wagoner, who was his partner in business, and the following sisters: Miss Carrie, of Keyser; Mrs. Phoebe Smith, of Milam; and Mrs. Sallie Hedrick, of Old Fields. He was a member of the Board of Education of Keyser Independent district, and belonged to the following orders, Knights of Pythias, Red Men, Eagles, and Woodmen, all of which orders attended the funeral in a body. The funeral took place Monday at 2:30 pm. Services were held at the house, conducted by Rev. R. G. Hammond, of the U B church. The funeral was in charge of the Knights of Pythias, the other orders of which he was a member, taking part. Interment was in Queen's Point cemetery. The deceased as one of Keyser's most popular citizens and will be missed by a host of friends and associates, who sympathize with the bereaved family in their great loss. The floral tributes of fiends were profuse and very beautiful.

WAGONER, Will
SCHELL, Jan 21 - We were pained last Sun morning when we received a message over the wires announcing the death of our good and much esteemed friend, Will Wagoner, of Keyser. We have not set out to write an obituary or biography of this man, yet we wish to say that we have been acquainted and done business with Mr Wagoner for nearly 20 years and we always found him strictly upright and honorable in all his dealings. he was one of those genial characters who always had a pleasant word and a smile for every one he met and always made a person feel better by having met him. Truly the world is better by him having lived in it. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved family and will add that we can sympathize as many are not able to do.
