OBITUARY OF MRS. HENRY KRUEGER

Hannah Ulricke Emilie Krueger, nee Falk, was born June 24, 1850, at Stettin, Province of Pomerania, Germany. At this place she was baptized, and confirmed in the Lutheran church in 1864.

In 1870 she immigrated to America settling down at Leeds, Wisconsin. She was married to Henry Krueger on October 11, 1874. This union was blessed with three daughters and one son. The son and his father preceded the deceased in death some years ago.

Since 1885 Mrs. Krueger lived on a farm near St. Ansgar until she retired about eight years ago. She enjoyed fairly good health until about Christmas time of last year, when she was seized with a number of ailments one of which was sciatica rheumatism. They sapped her strength and caused her considerable pain. Death came as a relief to her on Sunday evening, July 31, 1921.She attained the age of 71 years, 1 month and seven days.

She is survived by three daughters, eleven grandchildren and one sister.

The funeral was held last Thursday with services at Immanuel's Lutheran Church and Cemetery.
