General Notes: Husband - Evan M. Blanchard

---

The law firm composed of Hon. A. G. Curtin and Edmund Blanchard, being dissolved when Mr. Curtin was elected Governor of Pennsylva­nia, E. M. Blanchard and his brother Edmund became partners under the firm name of E. & E. Blanchard. They enjoyed a very large practice, and were also solicitors for a number of large corporations: Pennsylvania R. R. Co.; Bellefonte & Snow Shoe R. R. Co.; Beaver Mills & Lumber Co.; Moshannon Land & Lumber Co.; Snow Shoe Land Association; Valentine Iron Co., and oth­ers requiring much of his brother Edmund's time from home. The confining office and detail work, for many years devolving entirely upon him, grad­ually impaired his health, yet no one ever heard a complaint or met him without a pleasant smile and cordial greeting that reflected the best of health and spirits free of the really many troubles and exacting duties that he bore so well. He had not an enemy on earth, on the contrary all who knew him were more than is implied in the word “friend,” if occasion had required it. He had rare musical talent, and a melodious voice that was the principal feature in entertainments given by the Churches and Societies, whose requests for his assistance were always cheerfully granted. And he, too, enjoyed the sobriquet of his father, “Honest”.
