January 12th, 1020, at one o'clock, aged ab.Ul 81 yoara. His health had been more or less impaired for ten yoars but had boon growing grad ually worse until about four years ago whon he retired from active life. He had romoved hero from ' York County, which was the par ent homo, a half century ago, and wan one of the very first if not the first to erect his homo on "the other side of the river," thus Htnrting West Cloarfiold, now known as Third Ward. He was a master carpenter and build or and was associated with an other master carpenter contrac tor and builder, the late Samuel Schunck, in the firm of Marklo and Schenck in, which film the community had implicit confid ence), which fact is attested by lliu fine homes in Clearfield and so well and Kiihhgtanlially built by them. For a groat many years Mr. Marklo was an expert pat tern maker in the Clearfield Machine Shops, whuro he was much consulted and where he held thu utmost confidence of lliu employem and fallow-work- lllOM. All his life Mr. Markle took mi active and patriotic inlure.il in public affairs. In national politic he was an unswerving democrat, and most intelligently informed always upon the issues of tha day. Few men could cope with him in their discussion, and upon the gn-at (mention of n- tious. Never seeking office but never shirking duty when the office sought him. He was all his years from early manhood a consistent Christian man who took an active and influential part in. the church of his choice namely, the Lutheran church, and it is said of him that ho was thoroughly postedon church his tory and discipline and carried out in his own life heroically and proudly before the world, the sublime teachings of the Master. No word of praise given thiH good man could be called fulRomc no word tribute could do his noble life and character full credit as thu flowers and uffections of loved ones bid farewell to him, and thus ends beautifully the chapter of his life as it should be ended. His examplo and in fluence however will live on far hoyond the lifo limit of those who now pay him last and.loving tribute. He is survived by two daugh ters, Misses Mary, and Uussic Markle, at -home, and five sons, namely: Claronco Marklo, of As pinwall; Charles Markle, of Pittsburg; (ieorgc N. Mnrkle, of New York City; A. W. Mar kle and Wilbur Markle, of St. Johns, a suburb of Portland City, Oregon. Thu funeral was held from his late home, Jtov. C.

Dear Markle: I think that the last time I wrote you was con siderably over a year ago. At that time 1 was with the War Kisk Bureau in Washington, D. C. Last June I left the Bureau and wont into Estate Tax wor for Internal Uvenuc Service at headquarters in Washington. From there I was transferred to the 23d District of Pennsylvania with my post of duty here in Pittsburg. That was on October 1st. 1910. The tax game is a very interesting one in vestigat ing and reporting on the returns filed. Uncle Sam is very thorough in these matters, to see that he gets all that's coming to him and that's a plenty these days. The work id full of variety- never two cases alike present ing now and interesting qostions almost daily, very frequently aironts and inspectors are con fronted with questions of law.so that a legal training is almost necessary to handle the job. In fact, the Treasury Department is now requiring applicants-for these appointments to be more educated and trained along legal lines. This is especially true of those doing ostato work. Of course this phase of the work was ploasing to me. 1 had a chance to go to either Cincinnati! or Pittsburgh. 1 selected the latter, because of the grcal industrial activities which prevails hero in thu heart of the nation's greatest iron and coal region. '1 lie old burg ispret ty smoky- living up to its ro nutation in that respect.
