MCCORKLE

	Cyrus McCorkle was born in Dauphin Co. Pa., April 2nd 1855, passed from
this life, September 25th 1926, age 71 years, five months and twenty three
days.
	He was married November 25th, 1877 to Mary Younker, and God gave to this
home six children, yet He claimed one of these (a son) while it was in its
infance.
	In his passing he leaves remaining, his devoted wife, four sons and one
daugter, viz: Levi McCorkle, Dawson, Ohio; Ira D. McCorkle of Glasgow, 
Montana; Elizabeth Moyer of -----, Ohio; Dr. Charles E. McCorkle, Supt. of City
Schools, Kenmore, Ohio; and also thirteen grandchildren and three great grand
children.  One elder brother also survives him.
	He became a member of the "Church of the Brethren" in 1878 and through
out the remainder of his life, he was faithful to his Christ, and loved the services that were conducted around his bedside.
	The deceased has been a patient sufferer for the past twenty three
years, the last nine years being confined to his bed, and death to him was a 
sweet release from the bondage of the flesh.
