THE DEATH OF AN OLD SOLDIER
Philip Wendling Died at the Dayton Home
BURIED IN HOME CEMETERY
The Deceased was a Veteran of the Thirteenth Regiment, O.V.I.
Philip Wendling, aged about 70 years, a veteran of the civil war, died at the Dayton soldiers' home on March 6 and his body was buried in the soldiers' home cemetery. This news was conveyed to The Independent Saturday in a telegram from the home. Mr. Wendling was for years a well known citizen of Massillon, and in younger life and after the close of the civil war was employed as a molder. He laid out the Wendling addition in West Main street, a part of which is now owned by the board of education as a future site for a school house. He also owned property in other parts of the city. He was one of the first to enlist in the service in this city and became a member of the Thirteenth Regiment O.V.I. in April, 1861 when many other enlistments were made in this city. He saw a long and honorable service in the war, retiring the rank of second lieutenant, and at its close returned to this city, where he lived until a few years ago, when he went to the Dayton home. Mr. Wendling visited Massillon last summer and looked very well. No details of his illness or cause of death were given in the telegram. He is in Cleveland, a son in Canton and in Cleveland, and a daughter in Brooklyn, N.Y.
