General Notes: Husband - James E. Marshall


He passed through the public and high schools and Slippery Rock Normal School, then entered Grove City College, from which he received the degree, Bachelor of Arts, in 1898, and later, from the same institution, the degree of Master of Arts. These years of thorough academic preparation being completed, Mr. Marshall turned his attention to the profession which he had chosen for his career. The University of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia conferred upon him the degree of Bachelor of Laws in 1903, after he had attended that institution for three years, and he stepped from the classroom to return to his native city as a barrister. Admitted to the state bar in 1903, he began his legal practice as a member of the law firm of Marshall & Marshall, which since 1910 has become the firm of Marshall & Watson, James E. Marshall being the senior member. With offices in the Butler County National Bank Building, Mr. Marshall built up an important legal clientele which took him before the various courts of the state and nation and made heavy demands upon his time. Notwithstanding this fact, he did not fail to keep in close touch with the life of his city, and sat on the board of directors of the Young Men's Christian Association and the Board of Commerce, and also was a trustee of Grove City College. He was also a member of the Country Club of Butler, and had the distinction of being one of the founders and organizers, as well as president of the Butler Rotary Club. During the war years, Mr. Marshall did secretarial work with the Young Men's Christian Association, in France, being connected with the Twenty-eighth Division, and he was also a very persuasive "four-minute" speaker in the Liberty and Victory Loan drives, his services being recognized gratefully by the government in the form of a certificate and badge of honor. Mr. Marshall was secretary of the Pennsylvania Society for Crippled Children; they were attempting to get the crippled children of the state listed and treated and he was chairman of the committee of the Rotary Club of Butler who had all of the crippled children of Butler County examined by orthopedic surgeons, and many were operated on and treated.
