The many friends of Robert Atmore

did not hear the sad news u ltll Satur
day morning, that ho had de mrteil this
life. Mr. Shaffer had ben 111 five
weeks, but it was not gonon lly known
that he was dangerously ill, and his
owu family did not expect hi n to die so
soon. His first illness was ci used by an
attack of grip, which was f llowed by
heart trouble and Bright 'b disease.
When a soldier in Phllippin ) Islandshe
had an attack of miliaria fever and his
doctor thinks that had Bonethlng to
do with the trouble which ended his
earthly career.
Atmore Shaffer was bori' In Royn

at 8.30 p. m. Friday, March 17, 1!K)5,
making him 28 years, 3 months and 21
days old at time of death. At the time
of the Spanish-American war, 1808,
when volunteers were called for, Mr.
Shaffer enlisted In Company L, Six
teenth Regiment Pennsylvania Volun
teers July 15, 1808, and was honorably
discharged December 28. 1808, on ac
count of end of war. February 28,
1809, he enlisted for threo years' service
in Company M, Second United States
Infantry. January 2, 1002, he was com
missioned Corporal In Company M.
The 22nd of March, 1902, he was honor
ably discharged on account of having
faithfully served the terra of his en
listment. During the three year
service he was in four or five hard
battles In the Phllliplne Islands.
June 24, 1003, he was united In mar
riage to Miss Mary Burge, who with a
six-month-old daughter, survives him.
With the exception of his army life
Mr. Sbaffor resided In ReynoldBvllle
and was well known and had many
friends in town. .
The past two years he was a brake
man on the Low Grade Division of the
P. R. R.
Funeral service was held in the M.
E. church Monday afternoon, conducted
by the pastor of church, Rev. J. A.
Parsons, assisted by Rev. A. D. McKay,
Rev. A. J. Meek and Rev. J. C. Mc
Entire. It was a large funeral. Inter
ment was made In the Roynoldsville
Cemetery. The Sons of Veterans turn
ed out and buried the young veteran
with military honors.
Tbe floral tribute was beautiful, con
sisting of a pillow from "Indian" Foot
Ball Team, of which deceased was a
member, pillow from his sisters, boquet

When the family was informed that
