  HOTTEL, Wilbur W., Springs Valley Herald (May 6, 1937) Death Notice
  Judge Wilbur W. Hottel, 65, died of paralysis at his home in Salem last Thursday night. He had been ill since suffering a stroke three weeks ago.
  The jurist was serving his second term as Judge of the Washington and Orange County Circuit Court. He was re-elected as the Democratic incumbent in 1936. He previously served as four years as deputy clerk of Washington County, joining his brother, THE LATE MILTON B. HOTTEL, an Appellate Judge, in the law firm of Hottel, Cauble and Hottel at the end of his term.
  The last rites were conducted at the First Baptist Church in Salem, Saturday afternoon by Rev. W. R. Seat, a former pastor, assisted by the local pastor. Members of the bar of Washington and Orange County served as pall bearers. A large number of floral tributes attested love and esteem of relatives and friends and sympathy for the bereaved. Such a large number attended the service that it was impossible for all to get within the church. Interment was made in the Salem cemetery.
  Judge Hottel, born in Fredricksburg, was graduated from Eikosi Academy at Salem and taught several terms of school, latter attending Indiana University Law School.
  Survivors are his wife, Mrs. Josie Trueblood, son, Henley T., daughter, Mrs. George Nelson; brothers, Louie and Walter W.; and sisters, Mrs. Thomas Smith [Flora Anita Hottel] and Mrs. Samuel A. Roberts [Lillian "Lillie" Mae Hottel].
