  • Notes 
    • Passing of Urban Strub Pressman of News-Record Answers the Final Summons Formerly With the Telegraph

      Mr. Urban Strub, chief pressman on the staff of the News-Record, succumbed to pneumonia at nine o'clock this morning, passing away at his home, No. 2 Weber Apartments, Young street, after a week's illness. The young man was a first class mechanic, serving as pressman first with the News-Record and later with the Daily Telegraph, acting as foreman while a member of the Telegraph staff. He subsequently returned to the News- Record, with which newspaper he has spent the past few years as chief pressman. He was an industrious young man and although of a quiet unassuming disposition, enjoyed the good will of his employers and fellow employees in a marked degree. During the present epidemic he gave much appreciated assistance in running off several editions of this paper last week when the Telegraph pressman was confined to his home with an attack of influenza. His loss will be keenly felt. He is survived by his wife, Lydia Fritz, to whom he was married five years ago; his mother, Mrs. Catherine Strub, 54 Ellen St. West; two brothers, Charles and Albert, and three sisters, Rosie (Mrs. Herb Behrend), Edna at home, and Lizzie (Mrs. O'Rourke). The funeral will be held on Tuesday morning to the R.C. Church and cemetery. The Telegraph management and staff extend their sincere sympathy to those who are bereaved.

      The Daily Telegraph, Kitchener, October 12, 1918
