      A well-known and highly respected resident of Waterloo passed away at 9? o'clock this morning in the person of Titus Snider, son of Mr. Sam Snider at the age of 47 years, 9 months and 4 days. The late Mr. Snider had been ill since last winter. He was a sufferer from cancer of the liver and had been confined to his bed for the past ten weeks.

      He was born on the old homestead in Waterloo which he subsequently purchased and had resided thereon continuously up to his death following the occupation of farmer. In 1899 he married Catherine Martin daughter of the late Jacob Martin who together with an adopted daughter are left to mourn his demise. The following brothers and sisters also survive - Cyrus, Waterloo; Menno, Elmira; Samuel and Jacob of near Waterloo; Hiram, Chicago; Mary and Emma, Berlin, Mrs. John Bingeman, Mrs. Abraham Rad, and Mrs. Jonathan Snyder, Waterloo.

      The funeral will be held from his residence William Street West, Waterloo on Saturday afternoon at 1: 30 o'clock to the Mennonite church for service thence to Eby Cemetery for interment.
