DIED ON ENTERING HOSPITAL

J. J. Olehmacher, living near Fruitland, passed away last Thursday evening as he was being placed on the operating table at the Ontario hospital. He was taken with pneumonia a few days before and being in straightened circumstances was under the care of Dr. J. C. Woodward, county physician. Thursday Probate Judge Brainard was informed that the sick man was in a precarious condition and that his only chance was an operation to drain his lungs. He at once went to his home and ordered the doctor to go ahead. However, it was too late as he died before the operation could be performed.

The Oberg family lived on north Sixth street in Payette about three years ago and later they moved to the I. Z. Taylor place and he worked for Henry Reins. He leaves a wife, two daughters and three sons to mourn his loss.

Funeral services were held at the Methodist church in this city Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, Rev. George Roseberry of Fruitland officiating. He was buried at Riverside cemetery.
