DIED IN ESTHERVILLE HOSPITAL
Charles Schmuck of Graettinger
Burial at Rolfe
Charles Schmuck, who recently worked for Charles Herrington of Graettinger,
passed away at the Colman hospital at Estherville a few days ago following a
surgical operation. Several weeks ago, while doing some carpenter work for
Mr. Herrington, he jumped from the scaffolding in order to save himself
from a fall but he suffered an ugly fracture of the thigh bone. He was
promptly taken to the hospital but it was necessary to delay the operation.
It seems that he was not able to stand the shock and passed away. He was 37
years of age. The remains were interred at Rolfe. Two daughters, Mrs. R.J.
Latson of Graettinger and Mrs. E.C. Kelly of Fairmont, survive. Mr. Schmuck
came to Rolfe when a comparatively young man. He was a member of the
I.O.O.F. lodge. We glean from the Graettinger Times.
Had Big Family Reunion.
The Kane families had a reunion at Lost Island Lake last Sunday. Those
present were J.J. Kane and son Edward, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Kane and daughter of

Gene Kane of this city, Mr and Mrs. Gene Kane and baby, who live east of

Mrs. Edward Bradley and two daughters of Graettinger, Mr and Mrs M.B. Kane
of Ayrshire and Mr and Mrs John Ausbrook of Oconomowoc, Wisconsin.
