in Watseka last Saturday evening at nine o'clock. The Thursday before, the lady
had undergone an operation for cancer of the stomach. She passed through this
ordeal nicely. The physician entertained some hopes that she might be able to
live for some years. However, she soon showed signs of extreme weakness. Blood
transfusions were resorted to several times. It became evident on Saturday afternoon
that her life was ebbing. The remains were brought here Sunday afternoon. Wednesday
afternoon the funeral exercises were held by Rev. Braeunig. A large congregation
of aggrieved relatives and friends assembled to pay their last respects. Mr.

a devoted, loving wife and mother. May she rest in eternal peace!
