5. JL REEME, FORMER
POOR DIRECTOR; DIES
Reduced Poorhouse Expenses;
Prominent in Political and
Business Circles
Shell A. Reeme, former Poor Director
and almshouse steward, son o£ a pio
neer resident of Penbrook, died yester
day at his residence, in that place, 2413
Main street. Death was due to neph
ritis, from which he has suffered the
past six months.
Mr. Keerae was born at Shiremans
town, March 20, 1849, and when he was
14 moved with his parents to Pen
brook. His mother erected one of the
lirst brick residences in that place. It
is now occupied by the Penbrook Na
tional Bank. In 1872 he was married
to Miss Emma Brightbill, of Carlisle.
Shortly after he purchased from his
mother's estate the farm north of Pro
gress, now known as the Ober farm,
where he conducted a model daily for
•some years.
Mr. Reeme was always an ardent
Republican and was elected Director of
the Poor of Dauphin county in 1878, and
in 1881 was elected steward of the
almshouse in which position he served
six years, his administration being
marked by a notable reduction in the
expenditures.
He laid out a large part of the pres
ent borough in plots, selling them by
preference to young men that would
marry and raise families, and in many
rases helping them to build their
homes. His business ability was early
recognized. He was a charter member
of the Merchant's National Bank and i
also was a director of the Central Trust '
Company.
He is survived by two daughters, Mrs.
William T. Osborne, of Natoon, 111., and
Mrs. Charles Appleman, of Washington,
D. C. A brother, T. O. Reeme, of
Watsuka, 111., alsoo survives. The
funeral will take place Wednesday aft
ernoon, at 2 o'clock. Services will be
held in Penbrook United Brethren
fP Church.
