Word was received here today of the death of Tony Kafer of Littleport, last night. He was about thirty-three years old and leaves a widow, formerly Lizzie Baars, daughter of Wm. Baars of Elkader, and one child, besides two sisters and four brothers, to mourn his untimely death. The sympathy of a wide circle of friends will be with them in their sorrow.
