Obituary.
Hinton Gazette: The grim reaper called at the home of Fred Peters Monday evening at nine o’clock and claimed his wife, Salena. Mrs. Peters has been a sufferer from tuberculosis for about two years when she succumbed to its ravages at the age of thirty-four. She leaves a family of six children, five girls and one boy; the oldest one being nine years, the youngest two. Besides the husband and family there are two sisters and one brother.

Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Beers and interment took place at the Lutheran cemetery yesterday.

Otto G. Berner of LeMars, who is an old friend of the family, went down to attend the funeral.
