He recently had consulted specialists who confirmed the diagnosis of local doctors. On Tuesday of this week he went to Hartley and remained over night at the home of his son near that place. He was taken very ill during the night and passed away at 9:45 the next morning.

Funeral services; will be conducted on Friday afternoon at 1l :15 at St. John's Lutheran church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. L. O. Wolpar. Interment will be in the cemetery at Hartley.

The Pioneer joins sympathizing friends in the grief which has come to this good family.
