Notes: OBITUARIES: Evening Times Globe, December 18, 1937, Scrapbook 93 No. 1 Family Prostrated at Brutal Slaying of Aaron N. Cohen Was Highly Regarded as Citizen, and in Business By Nathan Dreskin Scenes of deepest regret marked the Cohen household above the store on Prince Edward Street today following last night’s tragic shooting. Prostrated by grief, Mrs. Cohen could not be consoled by hosts of friends and relatives. A telegraph was dispatched to a daughter, Libby, in Halifax, and she is expected to arrive home on the late afternoon train from that city. Two sons by a former marriage, Herman Cohen, Cleveland physician, and Joseph Cohen, Detroit, businessman were notified of the tragedy. At present time no reply had been received from either, or from a sister, Mrs. Jaffee, Cleveland, who visited her brother here this summer. It was the first time she had seen him in 29 years. Robbery Said Motive Members of the family and close friends declared today that he had no enemies and were of the unanimous opinion that the motive was robbery. The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o’clock either from his residence, 207 Prince Edward Street, or from Chamberlain’s Funeral Home, 25 Paradise Row, no decision having been reached at present time. Burial will be made in the Jewish plot at Fernhill Cemetery. Rev A. Babb and Rev. M. Beshkin will officiate. Deeply Shocked Today the local Jewish community was deeply shocked when news of the tragedy was learned. A highly respected member of Jewish Communal life here, the late Mr. Cohen was like by all and took an active part in community affairs. He was of a cheerful disposition and had been in excellent health. He was a charter member of the Ezra Lodge, Zionist order of Habonim, and had been elected a committee chairman for this year. He was a member of the Shaarei Zedek Synagogue. In his fifty-eighth yea, Mr. Cohen came to this country from Latvia 35 years ago. He has operated the store on Prince Edward Street for many years. Some years ago he ran a clothing store in Bathurst N.B. His wife formerly Miss Leah Jacobson, a native of Russia. He is survived by three sons, Benjamin a clerk in the store; Joseph, of Detroit, and Dr. Herman Cohen,Cleveland; four daughters, Sarah, a nurse in training at the General Hospital; Jennie, also a clerk in the store, Libby, at present in Halifax, and Mina, a student in grade 12 at the Saint John High School; two sisters, Mrs. Teresa Jacobson, 611 Main Street, and Mrs. J. Jaffe, Cleveland; a half-brother, Louis Bloom, 41 Simonds Street. Myer Hoffman, head of Ezra Lodge, has requested that all members of the lodge attend the funeral service tomorrow. A special meeting of Ezra Lodge will be held in the Hebrew School on Carlton Street at 11 a.m. tomorrow to discuss the part the lodge members will take at the funeral service. Mr. Cohen’s son, Benjamin, who was employed in his father’s store as a clerk, was not working last night, it being his night off. He was notified of the shooting by a friend on his return home after attending the theatre. (Further information on this tragedy can be found in a separate file covering the events of this murder.)
