Obituary of Catherine L. Hoefflin Columbus Journal, August 7, 1907 HOEFFLIN--The funeral of the late Catharine L. Hoefflin, conducted by the Baptist minister of Humphrey, who spoke in German, and Rev. G.A. Munro of Columbus, who spoke in English, was held at the residence of the family at 2 p.m. Saturday, August 3rd. The deceased, a daughter of Rev. J.M. and Mrs. Minnie Hoefflin of this place, was born Sept. 29, 1881, in St. Louis, Mo., in which place her father was pastor at the time of her birth. She began her school life in Muscatine, Iowa, where her family lived for nine years, her father filling the office of general missionary of the Baptist church. In Williamsport, Pa., she attended the public school, graduating from the grammar department, and then completing a course in a commercial college. At that place she was converted at the age of fourteen, bapitzed by her father, and received into the following of the Baptist church. At the age of sixteen her nervous disorder from which she has been a constant sufferer since, had so far progressed as to prevent her from taking up the work for which she had made such thorough preparation. In May, 1905, she moved with the family to this place, where, after a lingering illness, and latterly intense suffering, which she bore with uniform christian fortitude, she died Tuesday, July 20, '07 aged 25 years, 10 months and 1 day. 43.
