Schlappiβ€”Died at his home, corner of East Broadway and Third street, Nov 21st, Dr. Herman W. Schlappi, aged 40 years. He is survived by his widow, his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Schlappi of Sioux City, La.; and one brother, Dr. A. F. Schlappi of Curwensville, Pa. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon ; the remains were taken to Troy for cremation and were returned to Fulton for interment in Mt. Adnah.

The members of Fulton lodge of Elks attended the funeral services in a body. In the death of Dr. Schlappi Fulton loses one of her most popular residents and the medical profession of Fulton and Oswego county mourns the loss of one of the ablest and most skillful physicians and surgeons.

He graduated from the University of in 1904, served as intern in the German hospital at Buffalo and came to Fulton in 1905. He was prominent in the Fulton Academy of Medicine and the Oswego County Medical society, having
served as president of the former organization.

He was also an active member of Hiram lodge of Masons and, Fulton lodge of Elks. Aside from his profession, he was associated with W. H. Osborne and E. L. Beckwith in muck gardening and golden seal culture. His social nature made him prominent in the social events of the city. He had a smile and a good word for everybody and there was a marked reciprocity among those who knew him intimately.

He loved wholesome sports, and fishing: and hunting, when business would permit, were among his greatest pleasures. In 1917 when his country declared war against Germany, Dr. Schlappi offered his services and was commissioned a first lieutenant in the medical reserve, but before the call to duty came, the illness that terminated fatally was apparent.

When the call to active duty came last spring, he was unable to respond and was honorably discharged owing to his physical disability. This was a great disappointment to him.

In the bereavement that has befallen them, his widow and relatives have the heartfelt sympathy of all. Fultonians fully realize the loss our city has sustained in his death.
