Chas. H. Tune dies suddenly in London
Was a Native of Simcoe
Born here 53 years ago

Monday's London Advertiser contained the following:

Chas. H. Tune, for past thirty-three years a prominent London manufacturer, died at his home, 304 Princess avenue, on Saturday after an illness of eight weeks.

Mr. Tune has been sinking for some days past, but his death was sudden and came as a great shock to his family and many friends in this city. Death was caused by heart trouble.

Mr. Tune was born in Simcoe, Ont., fifty-three years ago, and came to this city with his parents when he was twenty-one years of age. With his father, the late James Tune, he founded the firm which now bears his name.

Mr. Tune was a well-known Thistle Club curler, and had taken a prominent part in all the club's bonspiels. He was a member of the Elks and St. John's Lodge 209A.

He is survived by his wife and three daughters.
