James E. Schwarzenback, for many years prominent in the business and political life of the city, died at 6:45 o'clock last evening in the Highland Hospital at Rochester where he had been a patient for the past four weeks. Death was due to cerebral thrombosis following chronic endocarditis. The body was brought to Hornell last evening and the funeral services will be held at the family home, No. 35 Union street, Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock and burial will take place in Hope cemetery. Mr. Schwarzenback had been in poor health about two years and since then had spent much of his time at his summer home at Loon Lake in an effort to recuperate. Four weeks ago he went to Rochester for treatment and although everything possible was done for him his case was regarded as hopeless since early in the week and his death was hourly expected. Yesterday at noon he was feeling much better than he had but late in the afternoon his condition suddenly changed for the worse. Native of Germania The death of Mr. Schwarzenbach causes a great deal of sorrow through out the city and in fact all over this section for he was unusually well known and well liked. For years he has been a leader among the businessmen of Steuben county. He was born in Germania, Pa., on March 26th, 1868, and was therefore 57 years old. His father, Joseph Schwarzenbach, came to the United States from Bavaria, Germany, in 1853 and in 1857 settled at Germania, Pa., where he established the brewing business that later became the Schwarzenbach Brewing Company, one of the largest in this end of the state. It was while the father was living at Germania that he married Louise Seebald and of the nine children born to them all but two grew to manhood and womanhood. James E. Schwarzenbach was the youngest of the family and was educated in the public schools of Germania. He had private tutors in the English and German languages and later received a business education at Detroit, Mich. While a young man he interested himself in lumbering and various other enterprises with successful results. At about this time he became one of the organizers and stockholders of the First National bank of Coudersport, Pa. Came to Hornell In 1895 he came to Hornell and with his brothers, Roland and Herman Schwarzenbach, built the plant of the Schwarzenbach Brewing Company here. The business developed with such rapidity that in 1900 the company built a brewery at Galeton, Pa. Later these two plants consolidated at which time the Schwarzenbach Brewing Company was organized and James Schwarzenbach was chosen president, a position he continued to hold from that time on. For many years he has been a director in the Hornell Fair Association and one of the men most interested in its success. He was also vice president and a director in the Steuben Trust Company and at the time of the construction of Mannerchor Hall devoted a lot of time and money to the project with which he was connected to the end. Among the many other projects in which he was interested was the Hornell-Bath Interurban Electric Railroad, a scheme that was never completed. In city affairs he was also active, having served several terms as a commissiner of the department of public works. He was also a director of the Chamber of Commerce for many years and served as its president. Twice he was elected president of the Hornell Automobile Club, of which he was a charter member and in which he was very active. Was Democratic Leader It was largely through his political activities that Mr. Schwarzenbach became so well known all over the state. He was a staunch and loyal Democrat and served many years as the Democratic State Committeeman in this district. It was due a great deal to his ability as a leader and organizor that the party attaned so much strength here at that time. He was one time a candidate for member of assembly in this district and ran far ahead of the ticket. In 1908 he was appointed as one of the "big four" alternate delegates at large to represent the Empire State at the national convention of the Democratic party at Denver. Mr. Schwarzenbach was a commissioner in connection with the Hudson-Fulton celebration and acted with President Schurmann of Cornell and other leading men of the state in connection with that affair. For several years he was president of the New York & Pennsylvania Bottlers' Association. On May 17th, 1900, he was married to Miss Marie S. Zieger of this city, by whom he is survived, as well as two children, Norman Robert, and Helen Lois, both of Hornell. He is also survived by two sisters, Mrs. Henry Theis and Mrs. Fred Hug of Germania, Pa. The daughter was to have graduated Monday from Mount Saint Joseph's Academy in Buffalo. Good Roads Enthusiast Since his health began to fail, a few years ago, Mr. Schwarzenbach has retired more and more from active business life but nevertheless he never hesitated to exercise his influence to aid any movement that had the betterment of Hornell and vicinity as its object. He was one of the men most instrumental in obtaining early state road construction throughout this section and he has continued as a good roads enthusiast ever since. In fact a great deal of credit is due to him for obtaining the designation of the Hornell-Loon Lake road just recently. His loss will be keenly felt for he was a man well liked by all who knew him and one who was unselfish in his efforts to aid others. He was a member of Hornellsville Lodge No. 331, F & A. M., Steuben Chapter, Commandery, No. 22, Knights Templar; Hornellsville Lodge No. 364, B. P. O. Elks and Hornell Lodge, No. 210, L. O. O. Moose.
