W. Jerome Shively

W. Jerome Shively, aged about 60 years, a well known business man of Quaker City, died at his home at that place Monday evening at 6 o'clock, death being due to heart trouble. Mr. Shively had been ill only a short time and the news of his sudden death was a great shock to his many friends. Mr. Shively for many years was engaged in the merchantile business, dealing extensively in wool and tobacco at Batesville, Noble county. He served two years as auditor of Noble county, and was at one time chief clerk in the office of State Inspector of Workshops and Factories. Almost three years ago he moved to Quaker City, where he opened a large general store, in which he was very successful. He is survived by his widow, three sons, Dr. John Shively, of Phildadelphia, Richard and Robert, who are connected with the Quaker City store, and three daughters, Misses Elizabeth and Emma Louise, students of O.S.U., and Laura, of the home.

Veteran Traveling Salesman Succumbs

Hulbert W. Ditwiler Passes Away Today After A Brief Illness

Hulbert W. Ditwiler, who in point of years of service was the oldest traveling salesman in Mansfield and one of three oldest in the state, died about 2:15 o'clock this morning at his home, 27 Baldwin avenue, after a brief illness. He was taken ill two weeks ago last Saturday, and his death came very unexpectedly as he had apparently been improving somewhat during the past few days.

Born Oct. 19, 1851, at Bellville, Hulbert Wesly Ditwiler became a traveling salesman at the age of 19 years. He continued in active service in that line of work until two weeks ago. With his father, the late John Ditwiler, and his brothers, Harvey G. and Homer B. Ditwiler, he organized the Buckeye Suspender company, which was engaged in the manufacturing business for a long period of years. He came to Mansfield, Jan. 1, 1867, and has made his residence her continuously since that time.

He was a faithful and conscientious member of the First Congregational church.

Besides a son, Herbert C., and a daughter, Miss Dorothy, he is survived by two brothers, Homer B. and Harvey G. Ditwiler, both of this city.

Funeral services will be held Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from his late home, conducted by the Rev. O. L. Kiplinger.
