Death of Lennie Kuntz
Kuntz, Lennie

Uncle John Crawford received the sad news Tuesday of the death of his granddaughter, Miss Lennie Kuntz, which occurred at the home of her parents near Rhodes at one o’clock that day. Miss Lennie’s age was about seventeen years. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Kuntz, who formerly resided in Palo Alto Township, where Lennie was born and spent the most of her childhood. She was an accomplished and lovable young lady, a member of the M. E. Church. Until a few months ago she gave promise of a long and useful life, but consumption marked her for its victim and all efforts of physicians and friends to arrest its progress proved futile. Her grandfather accompanied by Joshua Crawford and family, attended the funeral, which occurred at 10 o’clock yesterday. The family have the tenderest sympathy of their old friends and neighbors in Jasper County.
