Dec 1, 1828, and died in Loup City, Neb., Jan. 10, 1905. aged 76 years, 1 month and 10 days. His parents moved to Danville, Ills., when he was 8 years of age, at which place he grew to manhood. At the age of 18 he enlisted in the Mexican war and at its close received an honorable discharge. After his return, he learned the harness trade, which he followed the greater part of his life. He also held two hon orable discharges from the late War of the Rebellion. He was married in In diana to Mary E. Thraelkill in 1850,and to that union were born two daughters and four sons, all of whom survive him, 8’ive one daughter that died in infancv. He leaves to mourn his loss besides his wife, one daughter living in Iowa and four sons all living in Loup City, and a host of relatives and friends. Deceased was one of Sherman county’s pioneers, coming here in 1883. He was always ready to help any one in need and was a kind hueband and loving father. He was laid to rest i n Loup City Cemetery, in charge of the Odd Fellow Lodge of which lie was a member. * Fritz Kornrumpf. Last Thursday evening at exactly 8 o’clock, the spintof Fritz Knornrumpf, an early settler of Sherman county, took its (light and left all that was mortal of the kindly old Germ in in the cold em brace of death. “Fritz,” as his friends were wont to c«H him, came to Sher man couuty in 1879 and for some 20 years lived on a farm moving to town some four years ago. Two years since, he h*d the misfortune to break his leg below’ the knee, from which he suf fered greatlv for six months. As soon as he recovered enough to get out, hi s familiar faee could be seen toiliug with his team to keep the gaunt wolf from the door. The pain which accompanied his every step wore aw»y his vitality and left him unable to withstand the rigors of winter weather, and on Wednesday, the 4th inst.,be was taken with la grippe and on the 12th instant breathed his last, surrounded by kind friends who, with his family, sought to soften bis dying moments. Fritz Kornrumpf wras born in Hanover, Germany. July 11th. 1847, and came to America in 1866. He Bixrried Miss Kmmatiehftover in New York City. Feb, 7, 1867. Nine children were born to them—eight girls and one boy. Seven girls and their son. Fred, are still living. He was at the time of his death 57 years, 6 montns and 1 day old. Fritz was a hard w orker and not t<>o many of the comforts of life were his. He goes to a rest well earned and peace be to hie ashes. Rev. Wold of the Baptist church preached a beautiful and touching sermon over his remains.* Card of Thanks.
