Elkader Register, Thur., 25 July 1912.
Tuesday, at 1:30 p.m., at her home near Osborne, occurred the death of Mrs. Henry Possehl, after an illness of about two weeks. Monday an operation was performed by Dr. Guthrie, of Dubuque, assisted by Dr. Miller, in the hope of saving her life, but it was of no avail. She was only about thirty-one years of age and her untimely death falls with crushing force on her young husband and little son a little more than two years old. The funeral services were held this afternoon from the home and from the German church at this place, Rev. Franke officiating. A large number of friends and neighbors were in attendance, thus showing the high regard in which the deceased was held and their deep sympathy with the bereaved family.
