The deceased was a resident of Spillville for 18 years, coming here from a farm east of town where she was born in 1878. Survivors are three sisters, Mrs. Christina Humpal of near Spillville, Mrs. Mary Humpal, Rockford, Ill., and Anna in California. Her parents and two brothers have preceded her in death. She also leaves a number of nieces and nephews.
