Sioux Center Duch paper of Sep 14th 1910.
Coroner Dr. A. C. Jongewaard werd gisteren naar ireton geroepen tot schouwing van het lijk van zekeren Nicholas Meyer, die door ophanging zich het leven had binomen. De ongelukkig was een Duitsche arbeider, die nog slechts enkele jaren in dit land was en blijkbaar aan verstandsverbijstering leed.
Translated: Dr. A. C. Jongewaard was called to Ireton yesterday to examine the body of a certain Nicholas Meyer, who had taken his own life by hanging. The unfortunate one was a German worker, who had been in this country only a few years and was evidently suffering from mental bewilderment.
