Two Well Known Ludlow People Pass Last Week

Henry Winke, 72, well known farmer of Ludlow township, died Saturday at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Geo. Stuckman, following a six months' illness from heart trouble.

Deceased was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Winke, Sr., and was born in Ludlow on Nov 7, 1865, his entire life having been spent in that locality.

On May 4, 1894, he was united in marriage with Miss Amelia Menke. Five children were born to this union, namely: John, Albert, Clarence and Mrs. Stuckman, Ludlow township, and Martin of Decorah, all of whom survive to mourn the death of a kind and indulgent father. There are also nine grandchildren.

Funeral services were held Thursday afternoon at two o'clock.
