The friends of James Snuffer, 43, learned of his death at Conrad on Monday with feelings of mingled surprise and regret. He was scarcely arrived at middle age, had been a resident of Northern Montana for twenty years, and was known from Glasgow to the mountains, spent several years as a resident of Chester, and when the war broke out went along and was on the battlefront in France. Under the folds of the flag for which he fought the surviving comrades of the Legion laid him down. There was the reveille, the beat of the muffled drums, and the farewell volley over his grave--and then the bugle sounded taps. A restless, companionable, genial fellow, and good citizen.
He is a brother of Ben and Thomas Snuffer of this place, and was buried at Conrad by his comrades of the Legion.
