GEORGE W. WOLF died at his home, No. 149 South Potomac avenue, at 4:50 o'clock Sunday afternoon, he had been a sufferer for a long time from a troublesome disease. Sunday morning at 5 o'clock be was stricken with paralysis and his entire left side was affected. He did not regain consciousness after receiving the stroke.

Waynesboro. For about four years he was employed in Frick boiler shops and for the past four or five years operated one of the emery wheels in the Geiser shops. He had the respect of all his associates and was an industrious,
hard-working man, when his disease permitted him to engage actively at his trade. A number of years ago he became a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church but had not attended its services recently because of his illness.
