SMITH, DICKSON, ROHDIER, MILLER Following a long and distressing illness, Fred, the nine-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John B. SMITH of North avenue, died Saturday morning, April 25, at 3:40 o'clock. The direct cause of death was an injury received while skating eight weeks ago when he fell and struck on the back of his head. He received an injury which affected his spine and he gradually declined until his death last Saturday morning. Four years ago a son Phillip was hurt while sledriding and died as a result. Two other children have died in the meantime, making four deaths in four years. The only surviving child of Mr. and Mrs. SMITH, Laura, is ill at the present time of pneumonia. The funeral services of Fred were held at the home Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock in charge of the Rev. Dr. W. D. IRONS. The Rev. J. P. JORDAN assisted. The interment was in Robinson's Run cemetery. Salem A. DICKSON, aged fifty-six years, died at this home near Saxonburg on Sunday morning, April 19, at two o'clock, following an illness due to pneumonia and hiccoughs. He was born in Washington bounty, going to Butler county with his family four years ago. He was united in marriage August 25, 1885, to Miss Margaret CRAWFORD, daughter of the late Samuel CRAWFORD. He is survived by his wife and the following children: Mrs. Mabel BROCKMAN, Mrs. Etta WALKER, Mrs. Anna RANKIN, and Carrie, Edith, Clara, James, Joseph and Samuel, all at home; also by one brother, Attorney J. M. DICKSON of Washington, and one sister, Mrs. D. C. REED, of Cadiz, Ohio. He was a member of the Clinton U. P. Church. Funeral services were conducted at his home on Tuesday afternoon at one o'clock by the Rev. Mr. BAIRD. Interment was made in the Summit cemetery. Returning from a walk with his two children, three and six years old, Sunday afternoon, Louis ROHDIER, Jr., found his wife dead on the floor of her home in Valley street in the doorway leading from the kitchen to the dining room. A short piece of rope, dangling from the top of the doorway, and another end around the neck of the woman told the story. An empty two ounce ether bottle, found on the floor a few feet away, also showed that the woman had taken an extra precaution to make death sure. The woman had climbed on a chair and fastened one end of a clothes line to the top of the door. She then drained the bottle containing ether and kicked the chair from under her. The rope was not strong enough however, and broke, dropping the body to the floor. Mrs. ROHDIER had been in ill health for some time and left a long letter containing twelve pages, which told the story of her ill health and that she thought she was a burden to her family. The letter was addressed to her husband. Mrs. ROHDIER was aged thirty-six years. She had resided with her husband at this place for several years. The family was respected by all neighbors. The coroner will investigate. For several years Mrs. ROHDIER had been in failing health, apparently from tuberculosis. The funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon and interment was in Hilldale cemetery. Mrs. Mary Jane MILLER aged 75 years, wife of William MILLER, died at her home at Enlow on Saturday afternoon, April 25, at five o'clock. Funeral services were held at the Valley Presbyterian Church on Tuesday, April 28. Interment in Imperial cemetery.
