Three Kreig Girls Are
Recovering in Chicago
Hospital

Mrs. H. H. Musfelt, 242 Bryant Street, received word Monday that her grandaughter, Eldora Kreig, who was seriuosly injured in an auto accident in Chicago about three weeks ago, has been removed from the hospital and she may recover.

Mrs. Kreig went to Chicago to visit her sister, Lydina, who was a patient in the hospital. The girls' mother is unable to travel so when the news of the accident reached an older sister, Willa, who was working in Texas, went to Chicago to be with her sisters. The sudden change of climate made her ill so the three girls were all in the hospital at one time. They have now been moved to an apartment at 3647 Jnensen Avenue, where they are under nurses care.

Eldora was found to have a fractured skull. She underwent an operation and a piece of bone was found to be pressing against the brain. That was removed and the doctor's entertain some hope of her ultimate recovery. She is 16 years af age, Lydina is 18, and Willa is 22. All three girls are well-known in Dubuque where they have visted often.
