Information: Boyd A. Wolfe, son of Mr. and Mrs. Abraham Wolfe, was born May 30,1896, departed from this life September 18, 1917, age 21 years 3 months and 19 days.  He was united in marriage to Miss Audria O. Foglesong, January 2, 1916, and to this union was born one son, Alton B., who was one year old last July. They resided at Akron, O., where he was employed by the Goodrich Rubber Co.  He had been in failing health for some time but he went on with work as long as he possibly could.  Realizing that he was growing weaker and weaker he decided to come back home and ..........treatment, but all was in vain.  He only lived ten days after he arrived here.  When the doctors told him they could do no more for him, it did not seem to effect him in the least.  A few hours before he died he called all who were present and said he wanted to see them all.  He was then asked if there was anyone on earth he wished to talk to and he said he wanted to talk to his wife and also called for Rev. Pringle to pray with him.  Rev. Pringle arrived in a short time and held a prayer service with him after which he accepted the great Savior's love and rejoiced heartily over the blessing. Only a few hours after he accetped Christ, he passed over the river to rest until the great resurrection.  He leaves a wife and son, father and mother, five brothers and two half brothers and two sisters and three half sisters to mourn their loss.  X.
