  Mrs. Cora Davies, 56, a native of this community, died at her home at Akron, 
O., about 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 9, after a short illness. She had 
been visiting relatives at Grantsville, and became ill soon after her return 
home about a month ago.  A daughter of George W. and Margaret Crowe Miller, she 
was born at Grantsville and lived in this and the New Germany community until 
she moved to Akron some twenty years ago.  She was twice married.  Her first 
husband was Richard Patton, then of this place, from whom she was divorced.  She 
later married Mr. Davies from whom she was also divorced.  Three daughters 
survive, namely, Mrs. Violet Coughenour and Mrs. Daisy Kelley, both of Akron, 
born of the first marriage, and Wilma Ann Davies, Akron, born of the second 
marriage.  She also leaves the following brothers and sisters: Harry O. Miller, 
Mrs. Henry F. Durst, and Mrs. Richard Layman, Grantsville; George Miller, 
LaVale; Howard Miller, McHenry; Mrs. Charles Baum, Berlin, Pa.; Mrs. Joseph

Mrs. George G. Miller went to Akron to attend the funeral services, which were 
held there Friday afternoon.  Mrs. Henry F. Durst went several days ago when she 
learned of her sister's critical condition.
