         This Amendment No. 2, dated July 10, 2000, amends the Schedule 13D
dated July 1, 1993 and filed on July 2, 1993 (File No. 5-12158) by the P. H.
Glatfelter Family Shareholders' Voting Trust established pursuant to an
agreement dated as of July 1, 1993, and the trustees of the P. H. Glatfelter
Family Shareholders' Voting Trust established pursuant to the agreement (the
"Initial 13D"), as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated and filed June 8, 1999.

ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

         This statement relates to the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share
(the "Common Stock"), of P. H. Glatfelter Company, a Pennsylvania corporation
(the "Company"), which has its principal executive offices at 96 South George
Street, Suite 500, York, Pennsylvania 17401.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

         This statement is being filed by the P. H. Glatfelter Family
Shareholders' Voting Trust (the "Voting Trust"), which was established pursuant
to an agreement dated as of July 1, 1993 (the "Trust Agreement"), and the body
of trustees for the Voting Trust (the "Voting Trustee"). Pursuant to the Trust
Agreement, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to the Initial 13D, PNC Bank,
National Association, as trustee or co-trustee of fiduciary trusts (the
"Fiduciary Trusts"), together with any co-trustees thereof, has ceded to the
Voting Trustee voting power over the shares of Common Stock held of record by
the Fiduciary Trusts. There are currently 88 Fiduciary Trusts.

         The Fiduciary Trusts include many of the fiduciary trusts that have
been established by and for the benefit of the lineal descendants by birth of
Philip H. Glatfelter or spouses of such descendants (the "Family Members"). The
Family Members who are settlors or beneficiaries of the Fiduciary Trusts are
divided into five lineal groups (the "Groups") for the purpose of selecting
those persons who constitute the Voting Trustee. (See Sections 1 and 6 of Trust
Agreement.)

         The Voting Trustee has sole voting power over the shares of Common
Stock and any other voting securities that may be held in the Voting Trust from
time to time (the "Trust Shares"). (See Sections 2 and 10 of Trust Agreement.)
The persons who presently constitute the Voting Trustee are: PNC Bank, National
Association (the "Bank Constituent"), and the following five Family Members,
each of whom represents a Group (each a "Group Constituent" and, together with
the Bank Constituent, the "Constituents"). The names, residence or business
addresses and principal occupations (including the addresses of any employers
not otherwise provided) of the Group Constituents are set forth below:

         An aggregate of 701,950 Trust Shares has been pledged to PNC Bank,
National Association by three revocable Fiduciary Trusts as collateral for loans
to the settlors of such Fiduciary Trusts in the aggregate principal amount of
$3,566,803.53 as of May 31, 2000. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, PNC Bank,
National Association will retain a security interest in the interests of such
Fiduciary Trusts in the Voting Trust. (See Item 6 below and Sections 3 and 13 of
Trust Agreement.)

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

         PNC Bank, National Association has longstanding relationships with the
Company, the Family Members and the Fiduciary Trusts, through one or more of its
roles as a lender, financial advisor, trustee, executor, agent and custodian.
PNC Bank, National Association determined to effect and administer the Voting
Trust in an effort to promote the education of the Family Members regarding the
Company's business, especially among the younger generations of Family Members.
PNC Bank, National Association believes that the Voting Trust will provide
Company management with a means of communicating, through the Constituents, with
a wide range of Family Members, which should encourage Company management to
pursue the Company's long-term strategic plans that are supported by the Voting
Trust, for the benefit of all shareholders of the Company.

         The Fiduciary Trusts were selected by PNC Bank, National Association as
the participants in the Voting Trust because the Family Members who are the
settlors, co-trustees and beneficiaries of the Fiduciary Trusts have generally
had an interest in and involvement with the Company and PNC Bank, National
Association over many years. The Trust Agreement permits certain other
shareholders of the Company to become participants in the Voting Trust, subject
to the approval of the Voting Trustee. (See Section 9 of Trust Agreement.)
Generally, the shareholders eligible to participate in the Voting Trust would be
any Family Members or fiduciary trusts, in addition to the Fiduciary Trusts,
that have been, or may be, established for the benefit of any Family Members
(the "Other Family Trusts"). PNC Bank, National Association is the sole trustee
of nine Other Family Trusts. While PNC Bank, National Association has no present
plans to effect the participation of any Other Family Trusts in the Voting
Trust, PNC Bank, National Association may in the future do so.

         None of the persons named in Item 2 above has any present plans which
relate to or would result in: (i) the acquisition by any person of additional
securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company,
except in amounts which are not material; (ii) an extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the
Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) a sale or transfer of a material
amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in
the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans
or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing

dividend policy of the Company; (vi) any other material change in the Company's
business or corporate structure; (vii) changes in the Company's charter, bylaws
or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the issuer by any person; (viii) causing a class of
securities of the Company to be delisted from

a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(ix) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (x) any action similar to any of those
enumerated in (i)-(ix) above.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         The Voting Trustee has sole voting power as to the 13,504,808 Trust
Shares, which represent approximately 31.9% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock.(5) The Voting Trustee does not have any dispositive power as to the Trust
Shares.

         The Trust Shares may be voted only by the Voting Trustee in accordance
with the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the Constituents
pursuant to a weighted formula in which (i) each Group Constituent is entitled
to cast such number of votes as is equal to the number of Trust Shares in which
any Family Member of his or her Group has an interest as a settlor of a
revocable Fiduciary Trust, or as a current income beneficiary (or, if there is
none, as a current distribution beneficiary) of an irrevocable Fiduciary Trust
and (ii) the Bank Constituent is entitled to cast such number of votes as is
equal to the number of Trust Shares in which any irrevocable Fiduciary Trust has
an interest. (See Sections 5 and 11(f) of Trust Agreement.)

         None of the Constituents, as such, has any dispositive power as to the
Trust Shares. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, none of the
Constituents, as such, has any voting power as to the Trust Shares. PNC Bank,
National Association has certain powers that may be construed as shared voting
power as to the Trust Shares. As a result of its status as the Bank Constituent,
PNC Bank, National Association has the power to cast a considerable number of
votes in any determination by the Voting Trustee. (See Sections 5 and 11(f) of
Trust Agreement.) While its votes as Bank Constituent alone may not be
determinative of Voting Trustee action, PNC Bank, National Association, as the
initial Trust Agent of the Voting Trust (the "Trust Agent"), may for a time also
occupy the position of any Group Constituent, should a vacancy occur in that
position, until a successor Group Constituent is appointed for the respective
Group. (See Section 7 of Trust Agreement.) In such event, PNC Bank, National
Association, as the Trust Agent, would cast the votes of that Group Constituent,
as well as its own votes as the Bank Constituent, in determining Voting Trustee
action, and might well then be in a position to determine such action for a
time. PNC Bank, National Association and The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
report such shared voting power over the Trust Shares on a separate Form 13D
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


---------------
5     The percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock is based on the
      shares held by the Voting Trustee on December 31, 1999 as reported in the
      Schedule 13G filed by The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. and its
      subsidiaries, PNC Bancorp, Inc. and PNC Bank, National Association, for
      the year ended December 31, 1999 and the total number of outstanding
      shares on December 31, 1999 as reported in the P. H. Glatfelter Company's
      Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

         The Trust Agent also has broad administrative powers. (See Sections 5
and 8-14 of Trust Agreement.) In addition, the Trust Agent has discretionary
authority over the timing of certain withdrawals of Trust Shares. (See Section
8(a) of Trust Agreement and Item 6 of the Initial Schedule 13D.)

         Other than as disclosed in this statement, no person named in Item 2
above has any beneficial ownership over shares of the Common Stock. In
accordance with Rule 13d-3, shares of the Common Stock may be beneficially owned
by more than one person. This is true also of the Trust Shares. Pursuant to the
Trust Agreement, the Fiduciary Trusts may withdraw the Trust Shares they
deposited in the Voting Trust at any time if certain conditions are met. (See
Section 8 of Trust Agreement and Item 6 of the Initial Schedule 13D.) Thus, each
Fiduciary Trust, and its trustee or co-trustees, may be deemed to retain voting
and dispositive power over the Trust Shares deposited by it. In addition,
certain Trust Shares are subject to various rights to acquire as set forth in
various Fiduciary Trust documents and other documents ancillary thereto. Thus,
the persons who possess such rights may also be deemed to have voting and
dispositive power over the Trust Shares subject to such rights. Notwithstanding
the beneficial ownership of the Trust Shares by several persons, the total
number of Trust Shares is 13,504,808.

         Katherine G. Costello has beneficial ownership of 802,545 Trust Shares
held by one Fiduciary Trust (the "Costello Fiduciary Trust"). She has the right
to revoke the Costello Fiduciary Trust and to withdraw such Trust Shares, at
which point she would have sole voting and dispositive power as to such Trust
Shares. PNC Bank, National Association, as sole trustee of the Costello
Fiduciary Trust, currently has sole voting and dispositive power as to such
Trust Shares. Ms. Costello may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive
power, as co-trustee with PNC Bank, National Association, as to 16,500 Trust
Shares held by four Fiduciary Trusts. On May 3, 2000, Ms. Costello transferred
7,007 Trust Shares as a gift from the Costello Fiduciary Trust to a Fiduciary
Trust as to which PNC Bank, National Association, as sole trustee, has sole
voting and dispositive power. Ms. Costello added 100 certificate shares to the
Costello Fiduciary Trust on May 4, 2000 and, on May 24, 2000, withdrew 445 Trust
Shares from the Costello Fiduciary Trust and transferred them without
consideration to the Glatfelter Family Scholarship Fund, a qualified charitable
entity.

         William M. Eyster, II has beneficial ownership of 16,933 Trust Shares
held by one Fiduciary Trust. He has the right to revoke such Fiduciary Trust and
to withdraw such Trust Shares, at which point he would have sole voting and
dispositive power as to such Trust Shares. PNC Bank, National Association, as
sole trustee of such Fiduciary Trust, currently has sole voting and dispositive
power as to such Trust Shares. Mr. Eyster may be deemed to have shared voting
and dispositive power, as co-trustee with PNC Bank, National Association, as to
28,000 Trust Shares held by one Fiduciary Trust. In addition to such Trust
Shares, Mr. Eyster has sole voting and dispositive power as to 5,000 other
shares of Common Stock.

         Elizabeth Glatfelter has beneficial ownership of 897,432 Trust Shares
held by one Fiduciary Trust (the "Glatfelter Fiduciary Trust"). She has the
right to revoke the Glatfelter Fiduciary Trust and to withdraw such Trust
Shares, at which point she would have sole voting and dispositive power as to
such Trust Shares. PNC Bank, National Association, as sole trustee

of the Glatfelter Fiduciary Trust, currently has sole voting and dispositive
power as to such Trust Shares. Ms. Glatfelter may be deemed to have shared
voting and dispositive power, as co-trustee with PNC Bank, National Association,
as to 979,795 Trust Shares held by three Fiduciary Trusts. On May 24, 2000, Ms.
Glatfelter withdrew 89 Trust Shares from the Glatfelter Fiduciary Trust and
transferred them without consideration to the Glatfelter Family Scholarship
Fund, a qualified charitable entity.

         H. Clinton Vaughan has beneficial ownership of 8,872 Trust Shares held
by one Fiduciary Trust. He has the right to withdraw such Trust Shares upon 90
days' notice, at which point he would have sole voting and dispositive power as
to such Trust Shares. PNC Bank, National Association, as co-trustee of such
Fiduciary Trust, may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power as to
such Trust Shares.

         Susan M. G. Wilson has beneficial ownership of 216 Trust Shares held by
one Fiduciary Trust. She has the right to revoke such Fiduciary Trust and to
withdraw such Trust Shares, at which point she would have sole voting and
dispositive power as to such Trust Shares. PNC Bank, National Association, as
co-trustee of such Fiduciary Trust, currently has shared voting and dispositive
power as to such Trust Shares. Ms. Wilson may be deemed to have shares voting
and dispositive power, as co-trustee with PNC Bank, National Association, as to
11,360 Trust Shares held by two other Fiduciary Trusts.

         PNC Bank, National Association, as sole trustee of 47 Fiduciary Trusts,
has sole voting and dispositive power as to 10,870,616 Trust Shares, and as
co-trustee of 41 Fiduciary Trusts may be deemed to have shared voting power as
to 2,634,192 Trust Shares and shared dispositive power as to 3,174,480 Trust
Shares. The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., as the parent of PNC Bank,
National Association, may be deemed to have the same beneficial ownership as to
the Trust Shares as PNC Bank, National Association.(6) Certain Trust Shares as
to which PNC Bank, National Association has beneficial ownership may also be
beneficially owned by the persons serving as the Group Constituents as set forth
in this Item 5. In addition, the Trust Shares may also be beneficially owned by
certain Family Members who are not Group Constituents: 17 such Family Members
are co-trustees, along with PNC Bank, National Association, of one or more of
the Fiduciary Trusts and may be deemed to have beneficial ownership as to the
Trust Shares held by such Fiduciary Trusts; 19 such Family Members have a right
to withdraw an aggregate of 4,270,729 Trust Shares held in 22 Fiduciary
Trusts;(7) one such Family Member has a right to purchase 487,632 Trust Shares
held in two Fiduciary Trusts of which PNC Bank, National Association is sole
trustee, and an annual, non-cumulative right of withdrawal equal to the greater
of 5% or $5,000, which relates to 88,316 Trust Shares held by



---------------
6     The same is true of PNC Bancorp, Inc. See notes 1, 2, 3 and 4 above.

7     Each of three such Family Members has a right to withdraw 8,872 Trust
      Shares from a Fiduciary Trust upon 90 days' notice. In respect of all
      other Trust Shares, the withdrawal right may be exercised at any time.

four Fiduciary Trusts;(8) one such Family Member has an annual, non-cumulative
right of withdrawal equal to the greater of 5% or $5,000, which relates to
88,312 Trust Shares held by two Fiduciary Trusts; and ten such Family Members,
each a beneficiary of a separate Fiduciary Trust, have a 60-day non-cumulative
right of withdrawal after a gift has been made to the respective Fiduciary Trust
in respect to an amount equal to the annual gift tax exclusion, which rights,
collectively, relate to 82,872 Trust Shares.

         PNC Bank, National Association has sole voting and dispositive power as
to an aggregate of 2,306,178 shares of Common Stock which are held of record by
the Other Family Trusts.

         In addition to the beneficial ownership of the Trust Shares and the
Common Stock held of record by the Other Family Trusts, as described above, The
PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. has sole voting and dispositive power as to
154,454 shares of Common Stock, sole voting and no dispositive power as to
323,667 shares of Common Stock and may be deemed to have shared voting and
dispositive power as to 63,885 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the
"Non-Family Shares"). All of the Non-Family Shares are held of record by PNC
Bank, National Association in the ordinary course of business, as sole trustee,
co-trustee or executor of fiduciary accounts other than the Fiduciary Trusts and
the Other Family Trusts, as sole trustee or co-trustee of charitable trusts, or
as custodian or agent. The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. and PNC Bank,
National Association, as trustee, executor, custodian and agent, report their
respective beneficial ownership of the Trust Shares, the shares of Common Stock
held of record by the Other Family Trusts, and the Non-Family Shares on a
Schedule 13G filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.(9)

         Each of the Fiduciary Trusts has the right to receive cash dividends
and distributions of property except voting securities in respect of the Trust
Shares formerly held of record by it, and the Voting Trustee will instruct the
Company to pay such dividends and distributions directly to the respective
Fiduciary Trusts. (See Sections 2 and 10 of Trust Agreement.)

         Except as set forth in this Item 5, none of the persons named in Item 2
has had any transactions in shares of the Common Stock in the last 60 days.



---------------
8     This Family Member also has a right to purchase 2,306,178 shares of Common
      Stock that are held of record by nine Other Family Trusts.

9     PNC Bank, National Association, as trustee or co-trustee of the Fiduciary
      Trusts, and The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. include their
      beneficial ownership as to the Trust Shares on their Schedule 13G because
      the Trust Shares may be withdrawn from the Voting Trust by the Fiduciary
      Trusts, generally within 60 days. (See Item 6 of the Initial Schedule
      13D.) Such right of withdrawal may be deemed to continue the beneficial
      ownership of the Trust Shares by PNC Bank, National Association, as
      trustee or co-trustee of the Fiduciary Trusts, that existed prior to the
      establishment of the Voting Trust.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         In addition to the matters described in Item 5, the following
additional information is provided regarding contracts, arrangements,
understandings and relationships with respect to shares of Common Stock. Under
the Trust Agreement, the Trust Shares will be voted by the Voting Trustee in
accordance with the Trust Agreement. (See Items 2 and 5 above and Sections 5 and
11 of Trust Agreement.) The Voting Trust will continue until it is terminated by
action of the Voting Trustee or the withdrawal of all the Trust Shares in
accordance with the Trust Agreement. (See Section 4 of Trust Agreement.)

         A Fiduciary Trust generally may withdraw the Trust Shares deposited by
it, and may deposit additional shares of Common Stock into the Voting Trust.
(See Sections 8 and 9 of Trust Agreement.) Prior to the withdrawal of any Trust
Shares for sale, such Trust Shares must first be offered to the Company pursuant
to any stock repurchase plan of the Company then in effect. (See Section 8(a)(i)
of Trust Agreement.) No Trust Shares may be withdrawn from the Voting Trust, and
no shares of Common Stock may be added to the Voting Trust, if such withdrawal
or addition would trigger any rights under provisions then applicable to the
Company of 15 Pa.C.S. Subch. 25E-J or any successor or similar provisions of the
Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law (the "BCL"). (See Sections 8(d), 9(d) and
10(g) of Trust Agreement.) Subject to the foregoing right of first refusal in
favor of any Company stock repurchase plan and the limitations on withdrawals
that may result if rights would be triggered under Subch. 25E-J of the BCL, the
Trust Shares may be withdrawn for sale or other transfer subject to certain
notice requirements, and may be withdrawn without delay at any time subject to
the approval of the Trust Agent. (See Item 5 above and Section 8(a) of Trust
Agreement.)

         The Group Constituents serve staggered three-year terms. (See Section 6
of Trust Agreement.) A Group Constituent may resign at any time, and any vacancy
created by such resignation or the death or disability of a Group Constituent
will be filled by vote of certain Family Members of that Group. (See Sections 6
and 7 of Trust Agreement.) As discussed in Item 5 above, the Trust Agent may for
a time occupy such a vacancy. (See Section 7 of Trust Agreement.)

         None of the Constituents or the Trust Agent will receive any
compensation or commissions for acting as such but will be reimbursed for any
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that may be incurred in such capacities, and
will be indemnified against any liabilities that may be incurred as a result of
carrying on the business of the Voting Trust except where the conduct of the
Constituent or Trust Agent constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct, gross
recklessness or bad faith. (See Sections 15 and 16 of Trust Agreement.)

         An aggregate of 701,950 Trust Shares has been pledged to PNC Bank,
National Association as collateral for loans made to the settlors of three
revocable Fiduciary Trusts. (See Item 3 above.) If such loans were in default
and PNC Bank, National Association, as lender, exercised its rights under the
respective standard default provisions of the loan documents, PNC Bank, National
Association could cause such Trust Shares to be withdrawn from the Voting

Trust and obtain sole voting and dispositive power as to such Trust Shares. (See
Sections 3 and 13 of Trust Agreement.)

         Except as disclosed in this statement, there are no contracts,
arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the
persons named in Item 2 or between such persons and any other person with
respect to any securities of the Company.
