PETERSEN.

At 3:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon at the family home, one mile from the city limits on the Blue Grass road, occurred the death of Frederich J. Petersen, at the ripe age of 52 years.

He was born in Germany and in 1866 came to America and direct to Davenport. He was employed at the Rock Island Plow works until last November, when he moved out to the farm. His wife Christina survives him.
