    • Oscar Christman, 67, died suddenly while visiting the creamery in Elmira on Saturday.

      A native of his district, Mr. Christman was a part-time employee of the Elmira P.U.C. for the past three years. Previously he worked at Waterloo and before coming to reside in Elmira three years ago, farmed with his brother in Peel Township.

      Surviving besides his wife, the former Clara Schedewitz, are one brother, John, Elmira, and one sister, Mrs. Clara Wiltse, of Florida.

      The funeral was held Tuesday from his home on Factory St., to St. Paul's Lutheran Church. Interment was in Elmira Cemetery. Rev. Frank Malinsky, pastor of St. Paul's Church, officiated.
