ELMER E. YOHN DIES IN GARNER

GARNER - Elmer E. Yohn, 58, prominent farmer living three miles east of Garner, was found dead in bed by his wife Tuesday. Mr. Yohn apparently was in good health when he retired Monday evening and death was attributed to coronary occlusion.

He had lived on the farm home he owns east of Garner, for the past 22 years, and lived on a farm five miles south of Garner prior to his occupancy of his present location. His early years were spent on the old Yohn homestead near Klemme.

Mr. Yohn was married on Feb. 3, 1910, to Ruth Bonar at Forest City.

Surviving are his wife; one son, Ronald, and two grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held at the home east of Garner at 1 o'clock and at the Methodist church here at 2 o'clock Thursday, with the Rev. Milo Hall, pastor of the First Methodist church, in charge. Burial will be in Concord township cemetery.
