An Old Veteran Dead
Leonard M. Schreiber, a well-known resident of our city, passed away at the family residence, 554 Julien avenue, at 3 o'clock yesterday morning. Deceased had been in rather poor health for some time, yet his end is greatly deplored by his numerous friends. Mr. Schreiber served loyally during the civil war in Company A of the Twenty-seventh Iowa infantry, and had a wide acquaintance among the old soldiers. He was about 57 years of age, and had resided in Dubuque a number of years, and formerly lived in Waukon. He was an old employe of the Adams' company where he worked until compelled to resign on account of ill health. The deceased is survived by his wife and three children, Charles, the Misses Lena and Emma, all of this city. The funeral took place this afternoon.
