DEATH OF MRS. MARY WARNEKA.

She Passed Away Friday Morning in Bennington Township.

Mrs. Mary Warneka died at 4:00 o'clock Friday morning at the home of her son Henry in Bennington, Township,
11½ miles northeast of Waterloo, of dropsy. She has been ill of that ailment for eight months, and during the
last week the end has been expected hourly. Her age was 74 years. Funeral services will be held Sunday, but definite arrangements have not yet been made.

Mrs. Warneka was born in Germany March 12, 1831, and came to the United States when quite young. Along with her husband she settled in Blackhawk County more than 35 years ago -- on the farm where her death occurred. Her husband, Joseph Warneka, passed away December 10, 1902.

She leaves to mourn her death three sons, August, Henry and Louis, and a daughter, Mrs. Agnes Fenstimaker, wife of Officer Edward Fenstimaker, of Waterloo.
