Arthur Storck, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Storck, of Madison township, died at the home of his parents last Thursday evening, after an illness of more than a year. Arthur was thirty-five years of age and one of the brightest young men of the county. He had a wide acquaintance both in this county and in Des Moines, where, for some time, he was engaged in the real estate business, and everybody deplores his untimely death and deeply sympathize with the family in their bereavement. The funeral services were held in the German Lutheran church of Jefferson township on last Sunday and the remains were interred in the church cemetery.
