Death of John E. Ginter.

At fifteen minutes before 8 o'clock Tuesday morning Mr. John E. Ginter
died at his residence, No. 1425 Second avenue.  Mr. Ginter had been in
the employ of the railroad company as a laborer in the round house and
had been ill for a year past from throat troubles.  Seven months ago
he was compelled to cease work, because of failing health and although
he had not worked during that time and suffered greatly, yet his death
was unexpected.  He was 54 years of age last April.  He leaves a wife,
three daughters and one son.  The children are Mrs. Susan Hoffman,
Mrs. Jennie Wilt, Miss Katie Ginter and Mr. Frank Ginter, all residing
in this city.  Mr. Ginter was a kind husband and indulgent father and
his death will be lamented by all who knew him.
