John C. Fehr Dead - Well Known Swiss Citizen Passes
Away Aged 70 years.  John C. Fehr an old and well
known citizen of Nashville, died of paralysis
yesterday afternoon at his home on North Summer

eight weeks ago from which he never recovered.  He was
born in Switzerland and came to Nashville in 1848 and
engaged in the book binding business until the war.
After the war he entered the grocery business from
which he was forced to retire about two years ago on
account of old age and feeble health.  His wife died
about 11 years ago.  Four children survive him.
