UNUSUAL DEATH RECORD
   Rev. Elmer Smith of Salem Evangelical church reports an unusual record of the death of three members of his church on three consecutive days.  Their funeral services were held in the same church on three consecutive afternoons.  Rev. Mr. Smith assisted by Rev. A.A. Knepper if Mishawaka, officiated at all three funerals, which were for Mrs. Margaret Walmer, Daniel Laser, and Mrs. Herman Gerger.  At the funeral of Daniel Laser, the service of his wife in 1931 was duplicated by having the same minister, the same text, the same singers, and the same pall bearers, and a similar casket.
