OBSEQUIES FOR LATE
JOHN w. FUTILE

The sudden death of John w. Tut
tie on Thursday morning of last
week brief mention of which appeared
in the Sentinel which was going to
press at the hour of his demise, both
shocked and saddened this commun-
ity where he was well-krtown as one
of the villages prominent business
men and loyal citizens.
When Mr.. Tuttle left his home
about 10 o'clock Thursday morning
he was apparently in his usual
health and was expecting to take the
next interurban car for the city. He
first went to his place of business and
upon entering the store complained
to Mr.. Snyder, his assistant, of feel
ing i'll. He grew worse so rapidly
that physician was summoned, the
latter administering a heart stimu-
liant, then conveyed him to his home.
He expired soon after being placed
in bed.
Mr.. Tuttle had been afflicted with
heart trouble for some years. His
death is said to have been the direct
result of actue Indigestion, causing a
pressure against the heart which that
weakened organ could not resist.
The deceased was born at Huron,
O., July 8, 1874, but resided in Ere
mont, O., later in Cleveland, before
coming to Medina about twenty years
ago, to enter the employ Of the Me-
| DoWell drup store When the latter
store was discontinued, Mr.. Tuttle
purchased the stock Of goods and re-
moved it to South Court street, where
he had since continued in business
and had prospered.
Mr.. Tuttle was a man of quiet
demeanor, tho affable of manner, ano
strong in his friendships, and he con.
Quoted his business with care and in.
tegrity. He was known to be deeply
attached to his home and family
which consists of widow, formerly
Miss Della Canavan, and two sons
Johr, II and Robert, 9. So far as
known he has no other surviving rel
atives, his only brother having dice
few years ago.
Funeral services were held Satur
day morning at 10 o'clock, from the
home, conducted by Rev. VIM. j. Drew
of the Congregational church, and in
terment made in Spring Grove GENE
terry. Business places in the village
were closed during the obsequies as {
mark Of respect for the deceased.

S. S. CONFERENCE
A SUCCESSFUL ONE

While the attendance at the Sunday
School Workers Conference at the
Baptist church in Medina last Satur--
day was not as large as expected, there
was a very satisfactory gathering, and
the program as published in the Senti-
mel last week in the main was carried
sotit.
The conference was the first Of a
series of Institutes to be held under the
auspices Of the County S. S. associa-
ton, and was under the direction OF
Mrs. Mary Logan of Medina.
A feature of the conference was a

LOAN COMPANY
LEASES BLOCK
Believed to be First Move
Toward Erection of New
Structure
LEASE CALLS FOR
OCCUPANCY FEB. 1
One Year Agreement Indicates
Predicted Plan for Early
Start on New
Quarters

The Citizens Savings and Loan
Company cf Medina county, have
leased the Harding building on West
Liberty street, now occupied by the
M. T. Wright book store, and will
occupy it as a business Office about
Feb. l, when Mr.. Wright's lease ex-
pires.
That the new company was desir-
Gus of leasing this property has been
known for some time, and was stated
in the Sentinel exclusively two weeks
ago. It was likewise stated that the
company was seeking to lease the
property with the privilege of buying
it, in contemplation of erecting new
and commodious structure in place of
the present frame building. as their
permanent headquarters. At the time
the Sentinel published it's statement
none of the officials would state de-
finitely the purpose of the company,
neither did they then or have they
since made any denial of the facts
as stated.
The present lease is for ore year
with the two-fold privilege Of re-
moval or purchase of the property.
The promoters and officials of the
company state that the success with
which they are meeting in the dispo-
sition of shares in the organization
is not only very gratifying, but has
gone much beyond what they expected.
This fact, taken with the now defi-
nitely known purpose of the company,
makes it practical certainty that
another new business structure will
adorn the village within the coming
year, and on one of the best locations
available in the business center.
Mr.. Wright has not definitely de-
cided upon a new location for his
business as yet, tho there is possi-
bility, we are informed, that he may
remove to the Ulmer building on
North Court street just north of the
Hanshue garage.
