Utica - The death Tuesday, of Adam Echter, following a stroke of paralysis, removed a resident of Utica who had a host of friends. During his stay in this city he had built up a successful business and had surrounded himself a host of acquaintances who always found him a generous, genial companion and an upright man.
He was born in LeiStadt, Bavaria, February 10, 1850 and came to this country when he was 20 years old. He located in Brooklyn, where he was engaged in the grocery business, for a number of years. He met with success and in 1889 came to Utica and engaged in the restaurant business with his cousin, John Dehs. The firm has been one of the best known and most liberally patronized in the lower part ofthe city and the increasing business recently necessitated an addition to their property, the Genesee Hotel.

Deceased leaves his wife, whose maiden name was Regina Kruse and two children, Henry Joseph Echter and Miss Angeline Echter. He also leaves two sisters, Mrs. Mary Erel of Duckheim and Mrs. Elizabeth Groh, of Weisenheim, both in Germany.
