New Hamburg has its photographer and he is a good one. Mr. John Lautenschlager has been "the man behind the camera" here for fifteen years. He has a well lighted and excellent studio, equipped with the latest in cameras and other photographic appliances. He has the most improved facilities for photos up to 14 x 17 inches. makes a specialty of colored and outdoor work and has a large trade in bromides. He enjoys an extensive patronage throughout the townships of Wilmot, Wellesley, North Easthope, Zorra and the villages round about. His cabinet work is conceded to be eminently satisfactory and he does enlarging with much success. Mr. Lautenschlager is a most estimable citizen and takes a keen interest in everything pertaining to New Hamburg.

      Mr. John Lautenschlager Passed Away - Another of New Hamburg's well known business men passed away in the person of Mr. John Lautenschlager, who died at his home on Christmas day at the age of 63 years, 1 month and 26 days. He had been in failing health for the past two years as a result of a partial stroke of paralysis which had its resultant effect. The deceased was a resident of New Hamburg for 39 years, coming here as a young man and starting a photography business which he conducted until ill health compelled him to retire. He was active in sports of all kinds and especially in football and lawn bowling in which he took great interest. The deceased was born at Petersburg, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. Lautenschlager. He was married to Elizabeth Rau, daughter of Mr. Christopher Rau of this town. To this union were born eight children of whom six survived. Two daughters, Clara and Alice predeceased him. There are left to mourn him besides his sorrowing widow, seven grandchildren, three sons and three daughters, namely, Thomas, George and Mrs. Burton Lederman, of Kitchener, James, Mae and Margaret at home. He also leaves three brothers and one sister. The deceased was a devout adherent of the Lutheran faith and a member of Trinity Lutheran Church. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon from his late home. Public service was held in the church by his pastor, Rev. Mr. Mosig, and a large circle of friends attended. Friends and relatives from Detroit, Toronto, Hamilton, Waterloo, Kitchener, Petersburg, New Dundee, Plattsville and the surrounding were here for the funeral. The bereaved family have the sympathy of the community in their sad loss.
