Miss Celestia A. Christman, aged 35 years, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew G. Christman, died at the home of her parents on Sycamore Street in Woodsfield, August 7, 1918. She was stricken with typhoid fever several weeks ago and before she recovered from the fever other afflictions of a serious nature set in and rendered her so weak that she was unable to take sufficient nourishment to regain her strength and finally yielded to death. Miss Christman was a young lady of marked intelligence and was well liked by her many acquaintances. Before her illness she had been in the employ of the McFadden store in Wheeling, West Virginia and had a host of friends in that city and also in Bellaire, Ohio. The funeral services were held Friday and interment made in Oaklawn cemetery. Reverend Philip D. Lascelles, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, conducted the services. Deceased leaves father and mother and one brother and a number of other relatives. She had been a faithful member of the Presbyterian Church for many years. Those noticed from a distance in attendance at the funeral were Dr. E. E. Sulsberger of Bellaire, Mrs. Guss Norteman of Wheeling, Mrs. Dr. William Grimes of East Liverpool, and Miss Dora Boyer of Bellaire.
