PIONEER OF WHITE SALMON DIES HERE

     On Sunday morning of last week, Rudolf Lauterbach, pioneer resident of White Salmon, passed away at the local Community hospital, after an illness lasting many months. The cause of death was heart trouble. Funeral services were held in the Anderson chapel and a large number of White Salmon residents were in attendance. The Rev. P. Hilgendorf officiated at the funeral services.
     Mr. Lauterbach was one of White Salmon's best known residents. At one time he operated a store in White Salmon, but retired from business several years ago. In a quiet way he had done much towards the upbuilding of White Salmon.
     Besides his widow, he is survived by three daughters, Mrs. T. Wyers Jr., Miss Meta Lauterbach and Miss Louise Lauterbach, and four sons, Johnnie, August, William and Henry.
