l Win. Kunz, who had been sick for
solm time passed to his reward lust
Saturday morning. He had suffered a
stroke but had been up and around
and was taken with another stroke
Friday afternoon, the end coining on
Saturday morning. Mr. Kunz was one
of our most highly respected citi
zens. He was a successful farm, r,
but during the last years of his life
had retired from active farm work
and moved to town. He was a fine
citizen, sood neighbor and friend to
all. and will be greatly missed.
John William Kunz was born
Nov. 17th, 1S.". in Wuei ttiiberg,
Germany. Ho was the cl.lv-t child
of John -uid Christina Kunz. who,

Here, this en- rgetic and tireless
man helped with might and main,
not only to earn a comfortable live
lihood, but to convert his primitive
surroundings into a progressive nn.d
ern up to date section. He was wide
awake to any and every opportunity
for improvement to the agricultural,
commercial, and intellectual. but
above all in the religious world. He,
personally hauled rock for the foun
dation of the first Evangelical church
of which he was a cl. rater number.
In the church of his choice lie wj;e
not only interested in rearing a
suitable edifice but in character
building by his own upright life he
assisted others. From the old home
stead now occupied by his son. Jo
seph, he regularly wend--d his way
every week to attend prayer-meeting
of which organization he was
( lass leader for many years. As Sun
day school worker he was especially
titted on account of his benign and
tender dispo.-dtion. His kt-tn busi
ness insight made him a very fl'i-ci'-nt
trustee, and his services on the
financial boar. Is were highly prized.
