SUDDEN DEATH of OLD RESIDENT

Mr. Peter Bauma, residing in the southeast part of town, died very suddenly on Sunday afternoon at his home about half past four o’clock, after a few hours illness caused by intestinal obstruction.

Mr. Bauma attended early mass at St. Joseph’s church and was apparently in his usual health. He was taken sick shortly after reaching home and Dr. Kueny and Dr. Schwind were called in to attend him but medical science was unable to prolong his life.

The funeral will be held at St. Joseph’s church in this city at half past nine this morning. The deceased was seventy-one years of age and was a native of Holland. He has resided in this country for the past twenty years and two years ago came to LeMars to make his home.

He leaves a widow, two sons, George and James, two daughters, Mrs. John Gengler and Mrs. Henry Rangel. The children live in this county, except Mrs. Pangel, who went to Hibbing, Minn. A telegraph dispatch was sent to Mr. and Mrs. Pangel informing them of the death and an answer was received saying they could not be located.
