He was formerly a glass worker and was a stock holder in the Co-operative Glass and Manufacturing Company which was destroyed by fire about three years ago. He was a well known and highly esteemed citizen, a property owner and always cooperative in any movement for the benefit of the city.
He leaves a widow, a son, Merle Lauth, and daughter, Mrs. Louis Eder, besides a host of relatives and friends.
Those from out of town who attended the funeral were: John L. Schmitt of Elwood, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Schmitt, Miss Minnie Schmitt, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Smith and Geo. Smith Jr., all of Pittsburgh, PA
