James Breneman.

  James Breneman, a native of this city, well and favorably known here, 
died at his home in Dayton, Ohio, on Sunday morning, in the 47th year 
of his age.  He was here on a visit during the Christmas holidays and 
left for home on January 6, suffering from an attack of "la grippe."  
He grew worse after reaching home, but letters received up to Saturday 
were encouraging.  A dispatch received on Sunday announced his death.
  Mr. Breneman was a son of the late Philip K. Breneman, and his 
brothers are Frank H. Breneman, cashier of the Lancaster County 
National Bank, Charles A. Breneman, of the Farmers' National Bank, and 
Edward Breneman, of Dayton.  He was educated in the public schools of 
this city and in 1867 went to Dayton, where he has since been engaged 
in the manufacture of agricultural implements.  He was a member of the 
former firm of J. Lane Reed & Co.  He was a fine tenor singer and a 
member of the choir of the Third Street Presbyterian church, Dayton.  
Whenever he paid his annual visits to Lancaster his voice was heard in 
the choir of the First Presbyterian church.  He was married to Ella 
Brundrett, daughter of Dr. Brundrett, of Dayton, and she survives him.  
Of genial disposition and exemplary character, his death will be deeply 
regretted by many friends here.
  The funeral will take place in Dayton, to-morrow.
