    • Meets Death in Auto Accident

      Mr. John C. Hahn, of Kitchener, died from injuries received in an auto accident which occurred on the Galt Hamilton highway on Monday morning when he and four others Kitchener men were on their way to see the R-100 at Hamilton. The accident happened when the car driven by Mr. Hahn took to the ditch while passing another car. He was taken to St. Marys Hospital, Kitchener, where he passed away without fully regaining consciousness, suffering from a broken pelvis and internal injuries. The other occupants of the car, Fred Yantz, Carl Speaker, Albert Smith and Carl Witte, were also injured, but will recover. They were taken to the Galt hospital. The late Mr. Hahn was a former resident of New Hamburg and was well known here. He was employed here as a machinist in the old New Hamburg foundry. Leaving here he moved to Kitchener about 25 years ago. He leaves a sorrowing wife, one son and eight daughters. The funeral was held yesterday to St. Paul's Lutheran Church and Mount Hope Cemetery.

      New Hamburg Independent, August 15, 1930
