    Notes:

    Death of Bernard Schmuck

    After a long and useful life, one of the best known residents of Weissenburg district died yesterday in the person of Mr. Bernard schmuck. The deceased was in his 86th year, and for over 60 years had been a successful farmer and pump-maker in Weissenburg. His fame and ability as a pump-maker was known throughout the country, and today there are pumps still in operation that have been in use for 50 years that were made by Mr. Schmuck. He was born in Alsace Lorraine, when that province was owned by France. When a boy of 18 he came to America and went to work in Buffalo. Later he came to Canada, and lived for some time at Ancaster, before purchasing the farm at Weissenburg some sixty years ago. Mr. Schmuck was a splendid type of man, and of a robust constitution. Some years ago he lost one foot, the result of blood poisoning, from a splinter which entered his foot while chopping wood. Apart from this injury he remained in good health right up to almost a week ago, when the infirmities of old age made it necessary for him to take to his bed. He passed peacefully away yesterday morning. The late Mr. Schmuck's wife predeceased him 14 years ago. He is survived by six sons, Bernard, on the old homestead; Charles, of Toronto, formerly proprietor of the City Hotel, Guelph; Frank, of Kitchener; Vincent, of St. Paul; Lewis and Albert of Guelph. There are also two daughters, Mrs. A. Lehman, of Kitchener; and Mrs. Smith, of Waterloo. The funeral will be held on Saturday to the RC Cemetery at New Germany, requiem mass being celebrated at St. Boniface's Church, of which the deceased was a devoted member. He was also one of the trustees of that church and helped to build it, drawing stone from Guelph at the time of its erection. - Guelph Mercury (Friday).

    Notes:

    DEATH OF MRS. SCHMUCK

    Guelph Herald: Mrs. Mary Messner Schmuck, wife of Mr. Bernard Schmuck, and mother of Mr. Charles Schmuck, of the City Hotel, died rather suddenly at her residence, Woolwich Township, on Tuesday afternoon. She had been ill for the last month with stomach trouble, but she was able to be around and her physicians thought she was in no immediate danger, until a short time before her death, when she suddenly began to sink and rapidly passed away, aged 67 years. She was born on the 10th of December, 1835, in Salsarlsac, France and came to the United States, with her parents when four years of age, settling in Buffalo. There she was married to Mr. Bernhard Schmuck. After a residence in that city of two years, they came to New Germany, where Mr. Schmuck went into the pump manufacturing business, afterwards buying a farm in Woolwich Township. They have since resided on the farm, near New Germany, where Mrs. Schmuck was very well known. She was, indeed, a kind and motherly woman and always enjoyed the affection and esteem of her neighbors and friends. The members of the family besides her aged husband, are Bernhard, on the old homestead, Charles, of the City hotel, Guelph, Joseph, of Kussuth; Frank, Western Hotel, Walkerton; Vincent, of Detroit; Louis and Albert, of the Sleeman Brewing and Malting Company, Limited, Guelph; Mrs. Joseph Melrose, Minnesota; Mrs. Zettel, Ayton; Mrs. Kramer, Regina; Mrs. Lehman, Guelph.
