Stricken with heart failure while
attempting to put chains on the
rear wheels of his automobileat
the Upper Mountain road, 4
miles east of Pekin, N. Y., James
P. Misner, 42 years old, 223 Chris-
tiana street, was found dead short-
ly before 7 o'clock this morning.
Coroner Frank T. Carmer of Newfane
fane was called and issued a certif-
icate of death from heart dis-
ease.
Strained Himself
Misner left home last evening to
collect some bills on automobiles
sold by him, as agent for a well
known make of automobiles. From
the conditions found by Coroner
Carmer he expressed the opinion
that Misner was perhaps straining
himself to get the chains adjusted
when he was stricken. The label
was found on a piece of cardboard
which Misner had placed on the
pavement to protect him from the snow.
The ignition of the car was turn-
ed on and the gasoline gone in
the tank. Coroner Carmer said
that death could not have been
caused by carbon monoxide pois-
ing because of the fact that the man
was in the open.
Well Known Resident
Mr. Misner was a well known
resident of the Tonawandas, having
lived here all his life. He had
been agent for the Dodge auto-
bile in this territory for the last
twelve years. He was treasurer
of North Tonawanda Lodge, No.
860, B.P.O.E.
Surviving are a wife, Gertrude
M.; a daughter, Dorothy Jane; a
son, James; parents, Mr. and Mrs.
William Misner; a brother, Wil-
liam Misner, and a sister, Mrs.
Walter Rose, all of Tonawanda.

Vice President Nelson A.-
Rockefeller and a host of dignitaries
attended funeral services today in
Niagara Falls for former state Senate
Majority Leader Earl W. Brydges.
The once powerful Republican
lawmaker died Sunday at the age of 69
after a long bout with cancer.
Brydges served in the Senate for 24
years, before retiring in 1972. As GOP
majority leader from 1967 to 1972, he
was well-known for his quick wit and
charm in guiding former Governor
Rockefeller's bills through the Senate.
State officials attending the
services; under cold, snowy skies,
included former Gov. Malcolm Wilson
and most members of the Senate.
Representing Gov. Hugh L. Carey was
Fabian Palmino
Brydges' silver-gray coffin was
carried into the 157-yeai-old St. Mary
of the Cataract Roman Catholic
Church by a number of old friends,
including William E. Miller, who ran
for vice president in 1964 on the
Republican national ticket.
Wilson eulogized Brydges as "a man
who was true to himself, who alway
knew where he stood."
Senate Majority Leader Warren M.
Anderson Tuesday appointed the entire
membership of the Senate to serve as
a committee to represent that house at
the funeral.
It is a tradition of the Senate for the
majority leader to appoint a
representative committee to attend
funeral services for a deceased
former member, and it is a mark of
unusual respect for the entire Senate to
be so designated.
As Republicn majority leader from
1967 to 1972, Brydges used his gifts as
an orator and parliamentarian, as well
as wit and charm, to guide Rockefeller's
bills through the Senate.
Rockefeller called Brydges "an
outstanding leader and a most beloved
figure in the government of New York
State, He was my friend and I mourn
his death."
Along with Rockefeller and GOP
Assembly Speaker Perry B. Duryea
-now minority leader -he controlled
all major state legislation.
However, he said he felt he used his
