WELL KNOWN RESIDENT DIES SUDDENLY AT 
THE PLANT OF THE WAGNER MFG. CO. FRIDAY MORNING

Stricken As He Was About To Go To work, Funeral Sunday Afternoon At U. B. Church

Joseph Crim, aged sixty-four years, died suddenly at the plant of the 
Wagner Manufacturing Company about 7 o'clock Friday morning.

  The deceased came to his work at the plant Friday morning apparently 
in his usual health.  He was sitting talking to some of the other employees 
and when about time to begin work was stricken, fell over from his chair and 
died in a very few minutes.  A physician was called but he was beyond human
aid.  Death was due to heart disease.

  Mr. Crim had been an employee of the Wagner Manufacturing Company for 
about twenty years in the grinding room and was considered a very excellent man
in his work.  Previous to that time he had been employed at Smith's foundary.  
He was born July 29, 1851 and is survived by his wife and nine children.

  The remains were taken to Princehouse's Undertaking Parlor where they were 
preapred for burial and later taken to his home on Second street.

  Funeral services Sunday after noon at 2 o'clock at the United Brethren Church.  
Interment at Graceland cemetery.
