Falter and Henry Horn of this city have returned from Creigh lon where they have been for the past few days, called by the death of Emil Hartstook, the husband of sister of Mr. Falter. The deceased was married to the former Mrs. Eliza beth Weber, formerly Miss Elizabeth Falter, who came to this locality when but a child of five years from Germany and made her home here until her family moved to the north ern part of the state. The many old time friends here of the Falter fam ily will regret to learn of the sad event that has come to Mrs. .Hart stock. In speaking of the death of Mr. Harttstock the Creighton News has the following sketch of his life: "A pall of gloom was cast over the entire community on Monday evening when word was recived that Emil Hartstock had passed away at 9:30 p. m. at his home northeast of Creighton. His death was attribut ed to Bright's disease and compli cations, which had continued for six weeks, during which time all avail able science and loving care was be stowed without result in restoration of health. "The deceased was born in Pierce county on November 20, 1879, and died July 29, 1929, at the age of 49 years, 8 months and 9 days. He spent his boyhood days in Pierce county, where he was employed the greater part of the time on the farm This occupation he followed during his entire life. At the age of 2S he came to Creighton and secured em ployment In farm work. On August 8, 1905 he was united in marriage to Mrs. Elizabeth Weber. This union was blessed with two daughters, Gladys and Mildred. Following his marriage they lived on the Adam Weber farm 7 miles northeast of Creighton, later removing to his own farm 8 M miles northeast of this city, where the family have resided for the past eight years. "Mr. Hartstock was a splendid citizen, respected by every acquain tance, a good friend and a good neighbor and benevolent provider, His work is done and like well-ripen ed grain, he has been garnered, but his memory will be held dear to those who knew him as husband, father and friend. "During his many years of resi dence in this community he acquired a great number of friends, who will deeply mourn his passing. "He leaves to mourn his loss, be sides his wife and two children, one step-daughter, Mrs. Noble Berglund, and two step-sons, Geo. and William Weber, by a former marriage of Mrs. Hartstock. "Funeral services were held on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the home, and at 2:30' from the Eden Valley church. Rev. Seegers con ducted the last rites. The remains were interred in the Eden Valley cemetery." L. J.
