AKRON: (From the Register-Tribune)
Mrs. G.D. Leuschen died early last Thursday morning, August 26th, at the
family home northeast of Akron. The previous day she was operated upon for
gall stones and intestinal obstruction, but the effort to bring her relief
was unavailing. She had endured great suffering for a little over a week.
Mrs. Leuschen was born in Germany September 21, 1848, and was therefore aged
60 years, 11 months and 26 days. Besides the husband there survive four
children, Henry, Emil, Gerret and Madie. To those who mourn the loss of this
faithful and loving wife and mother, the community offers its sympathy. The
funeral was conducted on Saturday in the Preston township German church and
interment was made in the cemetery there.
