    Notes:

    November 9. Oliver W. Reichard, 81, dean of Elmira merchants had retired after 63 years of business. In January 1948 fire destroyed his business building. At 69 when most men would have thought of retiring, he rebuilt and continued in business until July 1960. The Mennonite people, with whom he had done business for many years, held a "clean-up bee" to remove the rubble, and all Mr. Reichard could do for them was provide a dinner at the hotel.

    Born on a farm near Fordwich, Mr. Reichard told how his father, as well as being a farmer, had been a preacher for the denomination known as "Tunkards or River Brethren". There had been a little church on the home farm. Mr. Reichard started work in a Baden general store at $40 a year, plus bed and board. When he was married he made $8 a week. He was a charter member of Wesley United Church, of which he was an elder. He also served with the High School Board, the Library Board, the Chamber of Commerce and the Independent Order of Foresters.
