    • MR. C. WOLFE PASSED AWAY IN 46TH YEAR

      There passed away on Monday afternoon at 4:45 o'clock another of Waterloo's highly respected citizens in the person of Mr. Christopher Wolfe at the age of 46 years, 3 Imonths and 14 days. The deceased has been ill for some years and while his death was not unexpected it wil come as a great shock to his many friends. The late Mr. Wolfe was born in Waterloo and has lived here all his life. When quite young he took up painting and paperhanging and for a quarter of a century followed this occupation most successfully. In 1911 he was elected to the town Council which position he filled with credit.

      To mourn his sad demise there are left two brothers, John and Herman and two sisters Edith and Elizabeth (Mrs. W. Ermel) all of Weterloo and to them is extended the sympathy to a large circle of friends in this their hour of sorrow.

      The funeral will leave his late residence corner of Queen and Princess streets on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock to St. John's Lutheran Church for service and thence, to Mt. Hope cemetery for interment.
