Dubuque Daily Telegraph – April 1, 1901

Will Schroeder, aged 19 years, passed away Sunday morning at 3 o’clock at the family residence, 753 Thirteenth Street, after a lingering illness with tuberculosis. The deceased was a news agent for the C. M. & St. P. R. R. and was well liked among his associates. His untimely ending is indeed sad. Two members of the same family are afflicted with the scarlet fever. The sorrowing parents have the sympathy of the entire community in their severe cross. The funeral will be held Thursday morning at 9 o’clock to Linwood.
