Reinbeck Farmer Dies Sudden

While in the act of selling a load of hogs to the Rath Packing Co., at Waterloo, last Thursday afternoon, Hans Dreesen dropped dead from heart trouble. Mr. Dreesen, aged 64, had gone to Waterloo, accompanied by L. Lorenzen with a load of hogs and had remained in Waterloo while Mr. Lorenzen returned to the farm for another load. While talking with Harry H. Petersohn he suddenly sank to the ground and died in the arms of Mr. Petersohn.

The Dressens live on the Diedrick Storjohann farm southeast of town. Two sons and one daughter along with his wife are left to mourn his sudden death.
