Rev. J. R. Buck, Former Salem Pastor Dies in Portland The Rev. J. R. Buck, 76, for 17 years pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic church in Salem died at St. Vincent's hospital, Portland, Tuesday morning after a lingering illness. Following his retire ment at St. Joseph's in 1934 he f made his home at a sylvan re treat about three miles south cast of Salem which he called "St. Mary's of the Woods." In til is comfortable little domicile he constructed a small chapel and there whenever his health permitted he offered holy mass. According to his life story as recounted in "A Convert Pas tor's Autobiography" published in 1941, he was born in St. Pe ter, Minn., February 9, 1870. his father a native of Maryland and his mother's home was in Philadelphia, Pa. Father Buck was brought up in the Presby terian faith and following a schooling he termed "not ex cessive," he obtained certificate to teach and followed that vo cation for several years in Daw son and Sheldon, N.

In addition to many other ac complishments Father Buck was proficient in music both as a vocalist and organist and often during his ministry in the Ca tholic church and as a layman in the Presbyterian faith he had assisted in choir work and pre sided at the organ. Following his decision to join the Catholic church Father Buck entered St. John's seminary at Collegeville, Minn., and he facetiously remarks in his auto biography, the seminary "Never had a more awkward, stupid student than I was."
