The Grim Destroyer Takes Three

Mrs. Susan Moellerman

This community was shocked Saturday on learning of the sudden death of Mrs. Susan Rettinger Moellerman, who dropped dead in her home near the Park shortly before noon that day. She was in her usual health and had never complained of heart trouble. She was talking to a couple of neighbors at the gate and walked into the house and back to the kitchen, where she was found breathing her last, a few minutes afterwards by M. Kerndt, Jr, who was in the habit of getting vegetables from her. He saw her inter the house, and failing to respond to his repeated calls, he went in and found her as above stated. Medical aid was summoned but to no avail, she dying before the arrival of the doctor and her two daughters, Elsie and Lillian.

Deceased was aged 52 years and 3 days. She was married Feb. 16, 1898, to Wm. Moellerman, who preceded her in death August 22, 1903. Besides her two daughters she leaves three sisters, Mrs. Geo. Troendel, Center township, Mrs. Lizzie Yost, St. Paul, Minn., and Mrs. Ella Groeniger, Leeds, N. D., and five brothers, John, of Rochester, Minn., Sam, Long Lake, Minn., Frank, Rugby, N. D., Albert, Wolford, N. D, and Henry J. Rettinger, of this city.

Funeral yesterday at 2 p.m. from the Presbyterian church, Rev. Kegel officiating and interment in Oak Hill cemetery
