      Mr. Roland F. Snider The many friends of Mr. Roland F. Snider will regret to learn of his death on Wednesday morning, in his 49th year, at his home in Stratford, where for the past 24 years he has been an engineer on the C.N.R. The late Mr. Snider was well known locally spending his early years in this city, receiving his education at local schools. He was a son of the late Samuel B. Snider residing on South Queen St. He is survived by his sorrowing wife, formerly Minerva Carey, two sons, Chester and Williard, and one daughter Dorothy, at home, one sister, Mrs. J.R. Stouffer, of this city, and one brother, Elmer, of Detroit. The funeral will take place from his residence, 50 W. Gore St., to Avondale cemetery of that city.
