1818-14 Dec 1888

John Christian, better known as "Christie Hans" the old bachelor cheesemaker, living near Rettinger's in this township, died Friday last and was buried in the Catholic cemetery west of town Monday. He was 74 years of age and one of our pioneers, coming here in 1854 from Switzerland and settling on the 80 acres he owned at time of death. We are indebted to Anton McCafferty for these particulars.
