Death of Former Iowan

O. F. Heinrich received the sad news on Tuesday that his father August Heinrich, died at San Francisco Nov. 2nd. Deceased was 81 years of age. The internment was in the Woodward cemetery of that city.

He and family came to Iowa from Australia, where he lived eighteen years. They settled at Blairstown, Benton county, where he was well known and greatly esteemed. He lived in Benton county ten years, moving from there to California thirty years ago.

Mr. Heinrich of our city visited his parents in California this year and there on May 1st along with other relatives and friends celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Deceased is survived by his devoted wife and four children.
