Mr. Snyder had not been at work in the New Era office for a week, having been a little sick, and was in the office seated in a chair, talking to Mr. Thornton Trussell. Suddenly Mr. Snyder laid his head back in his chair and seemed unable to get his breath. When Mr. Trussell reached him he was dead. Mr. Snyder came to Talbotton about eighteen months ago and accepted a position with the New Era as a compositor. He made a faithful and efficient man and attended strictly to his business. He made many friends while here and his death was a cause of general regret. Mr. Snyder was a native of Ohio, having moved to Georgia about twenty-eight years ago. He has a niece living somewhere in Washington, but her address was unknown and she could not be notified of his death. The funeral took place from Hotel Louise on Thursday afternoon, the services being conducted by Rev. J.G. Harrison of the Methodist church. The remains were interred at Oak Hill Cemetery with appropriate ceremonies. This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.7 Kb
