About 35 years ago he moved to Gettysburg and established a temperance hotel, 
which he conducted successfully, accommodating hundreds of visitors every year.

Mr. Pitzer was married to Hettie Walter, who died three years ago, and he leaves 
one daughter, Mrs. P. W. Stevenson, at home.  He also leaves a brother, Samuel 
Pitzer, of Bendersville.
