Albert Alberts, well known Reading Township farmer, died Tuesday morning at his home eight miles southeast of Ireton from complications following an attack of influenza.

He was 41 years, and 14 days old at the time of his death. He was united in marriage to Miss Amelia Baack about fifteen years ago. Eight children were born to this union, the oldest aged 14 years and the youngest 4 months. He has been a resident on the farm where he passed away for the past eight or nine years, and was highly respected by all who knew him.

Funeral services will be held at the home at 1 o'clock Friday afternoon and interment will be made in the cemetery near St. John's Lutheran Church.

The sympathy of everyone is extended to the bereaved wife and children in this sad hour.
