DEATH OF MRS. MAMMEN.
Mrs. C. S. Mammen died at her home in Grant township on Saturday morning at 8 o’clock from cancer. Mrs. Mammen had been sick for more than a year and suffered greatly in spite of the best of medical skill and good nursing.

The deceased was born in Germany on February 14, 1860, and came to the United States in 1883. Her maiden name was Johannah Rolapp. She was united in marriage with Claus S. Mammen in 1884. She leaves a husband, two sons and three daughters, ranging from 15 to 7 years of age. Five step-sons are grown up, of whom two, Dr. G. H. Mammen and Martin Mammen, reside in this city.

The funeral services were held at 1 o’clock this afternoon at the German Lutheran Church in Grant township and were largely attended.

Mrs. Mammen enjoyed the love and respect of the community in which she dwelt and her death is regretted by a large circle of friends who offer their sympathy and condolences to the bereaved husband and children in their great loss.
