He had eaten his supper and after doing some of the chores about the house, sat down and expired in a few minutes without uttering a word. He had been afflicted with heart trouble for some time. His body was brought back here and buried at the Lutheran church Saturday morning, after the funeral was preached by his pastor, Rev. J. M. Tise, in the presence of a large crowd. Mr. Spangler was born on Dec. 7, 1849, and died Jul. 27, 1921, making his age 71 years, 7 months and 20 days. He was a member of the Lutheran church and had been for about 40 years. He had been in the mercantile business for about 45 years and had sold out a few months ago. On Jan. 23, 1868, he was married to Miss Nannie E. Williams and to the union were born on six children, two of whom died in infancy. The living children are Mrs. J.S. Weddle, of Winston-Salem, NC, Mrs. Homer Sowers, of Roanoke, Mrs. W.D. Barton and L.E. Spangler of Elliston. He leaves one brother, David Spangler. His wife preceded him to the grave about ten months ago.
