      FORMER GLENALLAN MERCHANT IS DEAD
      MR. A.B. SNYDER PASSED AWAY IN KITCHENER ON FRIDAY LAST
      In the death of A.B. Snyder, which occurred in Kitchener last Friday night, one who had been closely associated with this countryside for many years passed away. The late Mr. Snyder suffered a stroke about three weeks ago, and again about three days before his death, the paralysis being due to hardening of the arteries.
      The late Mr. Snyder was born near Waterloo sixty-two years ago. On his marriage to Miss Louisa Ruggle, sister of Mr. A. J. Ruggle of Floradale, he went to the state of Kansas and took up farming. On his return to this country he took a position in Mr. Ruggle's store at Floradale. Later he purchased a general store at Glenallan and for fifteen years he carried on business there where he was most favorably known to the entire community.
      About a year and a half ago he moved to Kitchener to live in retirement, and here he resided until the time of his death.
      He is survived by his wife, but no children. There are two sisters and two brothers. The sisters are Mrs. Albert Lehman of Kitchener, and Mrs. Joseph Shantz of Kitchener. The brothers are Messrs. Edward and J. B. Snyder, both of Floradale, and Addison of Didsbury, Saskatchewan.
      The funeral took place on Monday last from Kitchener to Elmira. Interment taking place in the Elmira cemetery.
