Jackson Sentinel, Feb. 3, 1881.

GEORGE WENDLING died in this city, Friday evening, Jan. 28th, after a very short illness of only twelve hours. Mr. Wendling was a single man, and by trade a carriage trimmer. He was engaged by John Harris and S. R. Bader, when they had work for him, and the remainder of his time he spent in conducting a hot house and garden. He erected a small frame house upon some ground leased from Mrs. Shaw, opposite Harris' shops, and there lived by himself. A brother living in Decorah, this state, was telegraphed to and arrived Sunday afternoon, when the remains were interred in Mt. Hope cemetery, the services being conducted by the Odd Fellows, as the deceased was a member thereof.
