JAMES H. FISHER DIED IN HAMMOND

Body of Former Rensselaer Citizen Will Be Returned Here For Burial—Funeral Wednesday,

James H. Fisher died in Hammond Sunday afternoon at 4:45 o’clock. He had been an invalid for some time and relatives feared that he had tuberculosis. A post-mortem conducted soon after his death disclosed that death was due to a complication of troubles, including liver trouble, but that the lungs were not affected. For a number of years Mr. Fisher worked in Hammond and his family lived in this city. All moved to Hammond, however, in the fall of 1912. He is survived by his wife and three daughters, Mrs. Harry Murray and Misses Clara and Ethel Fisher, all of Hammond. Mr. and Mrs. James Korns, of Rensselaer, went to Hammond Saturday evening and were at the home of Mr. Fisher when his death occurred, returning here that evening. The body will be shipped to Rensselaer on the 2 o’clock train Wednesday afternoon and taken at once to the Methodist church, where the funeral will be conducted by Dr. Curnick and Rev. Harper, the latter preaching the sermon. Burial will be made in Weston cemetery.
