      Theresia Street Resident Dies In Buffalo
      Joseph Bucheit Passed Away Today

      Joseph C. Bucheit, 71, life-long resident of St. Marys, died at approximately 12:30 this morning in the Millard Fillmore Hospital, Buffalo, where he had been admitted as a surgical patient three weeks ago.

      While his condition had shown no marked improvement the past few days, members of the family who visited him during visiting hours last night found no appreciable change and news that he passed away about three hours after they last saw him, came as a considerable shock.

      Mr. Bucheit was born March 22, 1877, son of the deceased Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bucheit. He had been employed at the Tannery until his retirement slightly more than two years ago. Prior to that he worked at the local sawmill and for St. Marys Brewing Company.

      He is survived by his wife, the former Mary Lanzel, and the following children: Beatrice, Mrs. Fred Bhrem, Buffalo; Helen, Mrs. Clarence Ellison, Port Allegany; Mrs. Fairl Singer, Genevieve, Mrs. S. J. Cancilla, Miss Silda Buchheit and Norman Buchheit of St. Marys.

      Other survivors are five sisters and three brothers; Mrs. Mary Meyer, Mrs. Josephine Cotter, Mrs. Julia Renwick, St. Marys; Gertrude, Mrs. Harry Walker, Kane; Hilda, Mrs. Ambrose Wortman, Buffalo; Frank and Charles Bucheit, St. Marys; William Bucheit, Mt. Jewett, and eight grandchildren.

      Deceased was a member of St. Joseph Society, P. F. L. and Eagles.

      The body can be viewed at the family home after 10 o'clock Saturday morning.

      Requiem mass will be celebrated in St. Marys church Monday at 10:00 a.m. Burial will be made in St. Mary's cemetery.
