Elkader Register, Fri., 18 Mar. 1881.
Died- On the 14th inst., Mrs. Jacob Brinkhaus, of Mederville, aged 27 years.
Mrs. Brinkhaus was a sister of Martin Dittmer and Mrs Jacob Stemmer, of this place. It was about a year ago that she was married to Mr. Brinkhaus, and now after a short period of domestic happiness and bliss, she has been called "home" by the Father of all. By her death she leaves a sorrowing husband and an infant child, who have the profound sympathy of all.
