PETER SNIDER
[People’s Press, 10 July 1900]
A good and greatly esteemed resident of the township passed away at midnight on Wednesday last, in the person of Peter Snider aged three score years. The deceased had been ailing for a couple of years, and his death was not unexpected. Peter Snider was born in the township of Humberstone, and has been a life-long resident, he hardly ever having been many miles away. He leaves a large family of grown up sons and daughters, namely: Levi Snider of Michigan, Jacob Snider of Cayuga and Edward and Albert Snider of Humberstone, and Mrs. Henry Kramer and Mrs. John Ettling. He also leaves two brothers, Henry B. and Charles, and a sister, Mrs. Henry Wolfe, with whom the entire community join in mourning the demise of such an old and favourably known resident. The funeral took place on Sunday at 1 p.m. from the house to the Lutheran church. Rev. Mr. Dorn preached the funeral sermon, in which the relatives of deceased think he was done some injustice. The interment was in the Lutheran cemetery on the lake shore east of here. An immense concourse of friends attended the funeral.
