Edward H. Frear, who fell ill in city court at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon with acute indigestion, which late developed into apoplexy, died at 5:20 o'clock this morning at his home, 202 East State Street. He would have been 34 years old on July 6, had he lived.
Edward Hughson Frear was born in Ithaca, the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Frear, and he had always lived here. Following a course in the lower schools, Mr. Frear entered the high school and was graduated from that institution in 1896. While in school he played on the football team and made a record for himself in athletics.
After his graduation from the high school Mr. Frear entered Cornell University. Before his graduation from the law school, in 1900, he was married to Miss Grace Milks of Ithaca, on July 6, 1898, at Seneca Falls. The day was Mr. Frear's birthday.
The practice of law was begun by Mr. Frear in the fall of 1900. In 1902 he was nominated and elected justice of the peace, on the Republican ticket. He served four years, and was re-elected. In 1908 Judge Frear was nominated for city judge by the Republican party, and made a strong run.
As the charter did away with the office on Jan. 1, Attorney Frear since had devoted all his time in the practice of law.
He leaves his wife, a son, Donald, his father, William Frear, and a sister, Mrs. Herbert G. Willson. He was a member of the Hobasco Lodge 716, F. and A.M., and of the Craftsman's Club; of the Maccabees, the Red Men and of No. 2 chemical and engine company.
The funeral will be held at 2:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. Willson, 314 East Buffalo Street. The Rev. Wallace E. Brown, pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal Church, and the Rev. J. Frederick Fitschen, jr., pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, will officiate. Interment will be in Lake View Cemetery.
The funeral will be in charge of the Masons. All Masons have been requested to meet in the lodge rooms at 2 p.m. Thursday.
A special meeting of No. 2 chemical and engine company will be held at 8 o'clock tomorrow night, to make arrangements for attending the funeral.
