Anna, the 12 year-old daughter of farmer Jurgen Peters, who lives six miles north of Remsen, in Sioux county, died last week of diphtheria and Sunday, January 20 her 16-year old sister, Celia, fell victim to the dreadful disease. Several other members of the family are very low with diphtheria. Mr. Federspiel, who waited on the sick in the Donahoe house, has been engaged to attend those in the Peter’s house. Later—Tuesday, Jan. 22, George, the 12-year old son of Mr. Peters, succumbed to the disease as the third victim, but there is good hope that the other members of the family will come out all right. A woman who had offered her services to the stricken family, while milking, Tuesday morning, was kicked in the breast by a vicious cow, but she will also come out all right. – Le Mars Semi-Weekly Sentinel, Jan. 28, 1895, page 4.
