TWO SUDDEN DEATHS.
Andrew Satthe Succumbs to Cholera Morbus and A. W. Buntrock to Heart Lesion.

The death of A. W. Buntrock, which occurred Sunday night about ten o’clock, was the second sudden demise of the week. Mr Buntrock had been with his family at the Brorbv home in West Decorah and remained until about nine o’clock. Shortly after reaching home he was taken sick and Dr. Barfoot summoned. As soon as he arrived he saw that Mr. Buntroek was in a very serious condition, apparently a heart affliction induced partially by stomach trouble. He rendered such assistance as was possible but the stricken man was beyond hope of recovery and died about ten o’clock.

Mr Buntrock has been in the employ of K. Rudolph in his harness shop for several years and was a man upwards of fifty years of age. He is survived by his wife and one child. The funeral was held yesterday morning at the home, Dr. Willett officiating, and the remains were taken to Waukon for burial.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he is buried in Oakland Cemetery in Waukon. He was born April 24, 1858 and died June 12, 1904.
