TEXT	Mr. Diehl controls one of the most extensive undertaking establishments in the city. The business was established by his father in 1844. Every attention is given to funerals, and the most approved appliances for the preservation of bodies and the burial of the dead are in use. Mr. Diehl was born in this city in 1846. He was educated abroad, and returned to America at the outbreak of the civil war. At the first call for men, he swung into line and served under Col. R. B. Ayres. He was with the Fifteenth New York heavy artillery at the battles of The Wilderness, Spottsylvania, Bethseda Church, Petersburg, etc. For bravery and merit, he was promoted to the position of aide-de-camp to Major-Gen-eral R. B. Ayres. He took part in the battles of Five Forks, Chapel House, Hatcheris Run, White Oak Road, and others, and ere the close of the war was appointed lieutenant-colonel for gallant conduct.
