leading citizen of Frederick, was held
at his late residence on David street
on Tuesday afternoon, August 26th
with interment at Barratt's Chapel
cemetery. A large assemblage of rel
atiVes and friends cOngregated to
pay their last tribute of love and re-
spect, to one who was well beloved
and highly respected as a private
citizen, and in the social realm of
life. He was a man of prObity in the
arena of business, who had advanced
ideas and of modern and well de-
veloped conceptions involving public
spirit and municipal progress and
improvements.
The events leading to Mr.. Frazier's
death were somewhat tragic in their
nature. He was driving his car from
Wilmington on Wednesday, August
goth, where he had been to attend
a meeting of the directors of the
Delaware Trust Co., of whose local
bank at Frederica he was director,
and was stricken without the least
preliminary warning with appOpleXy
while at the steering wheel. His
wife reaching forward stopped the
car. He was brought home by
chauffeur from a Philadelphian's car
and without regaining conscious
ness, died the following Friday even
ing, August 22nd.
