Christian Hornschuch, 64 years old, a well-known resident of this city, died suddenly at the family home on Seventh and Monroe
streets Friday from heart disease. Mr. Hornschuch had not complained of being ill upon retiring. Mrs. Hornschuch, who was
stricken with paralysis about one year ago, heard her husband gasping for breath, and managed to reach the residence occupied by
her daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Chester Elliott, which adjoins the Hornschuch home. The Elliotts telephoned for a
physician, but Mr. Hornschuch was lifeless when the doctor arrived.

Mr. Hornschuch was born at Heidersbach, near Suhi, in Prussia, September 5, 1847. His father died when he was young and he
came to America with his mother in 1863, settling at Ashland, Pa. There he married Miss Gottlobina Ginther in 1870. The family
came to Oregon in 1878. Mr. Hornschuch first took up his home with his family at Shubel, Clackamas County, where he owned one of
the finest farms, which he sold one year ago. He and his wife then left for Seattle, Wash., where they remained until last
Summer, when they moved to Salem. They remained at the state capital but a short time before returning to Oregon City. He was
arranging to have a home built here, and worked on the land preparing the site the day of his death.

Mr. Hornschuch is survived by his widow and the following children: Henry Hornschuch, of Portland; Emil Hornschuch, of
Seattle, Wash.; Theodore Hornschuch, of Tacoma, Wash.; Edward Hornschuch, of Bellingham, Wash.; Mrs. Rose Wenger, of Salem;
Lawrence Hornschuch, of San Francisco; Mrs. Lena Ernst, of Seattle; Albert Hornschuch, of Portland; Otto Hornschuch, of Seattle,
and Mrs. Lydia Elliott, of Oregon City. Mrs. Charlote Bullard and Mrs. Rosamond Schuebel, of this city, are sisters.

The funeral services will be held at the Evangelical Church Tuesday morning, with Rev. Wievesiek officiating.
