    Sad Death of Frederick Wilken
    Passed away Sunday Evening the Home of His Daughter, Mrs. L. Bunch, Ill Only a Week with Pneumonia.


    That dread disease, pneumonia, has claimed another victim in the person of Mr. Frederick Wilken for many years a resident of Elmira, but who has resided with his daughter, Mr. L. Bunch, Albert St., Waterloo, for the past year, who passed away at nine o'clock Sunday evening at the age of 69 years, 6 months and 23 days. Deceased, who had always enjoyed excellent health, contracted the disease a week ago, from which he never recovered. His wife, Mrs. Wilken is seriously ill with the same disease, as is also Mr. Bunch. The late Mr. Wilken was born in Germany, and came to this country fifty years ago. Two later he was married to Mrs. Wilken of Rummelhardt, where they first resided. They subsequently resided in a number of other places until finally they moved to Elmira, where they lived 22 years. A year ago he came to Waterloo and has resided with his daughter since then. Besides his wife, who survives, a family of children are left to mourn his untimely demise, namely: John, Henry and Charles of Elmira; Wm. of Preston, Fred of Stony Plain N.W.T. and two daughters, Mrs. Theodore Urtel, of Elmira and Mrs. L. Bunch of Waterloo. The funeral was held on Wednesday afternoon at 1: 30 o'clock from the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. L. Bunch, Albert St., to the St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Berlin, for service, thence to Mount Hope Cemetery for interment. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved.

    Respected Lady Passes Away
    Mrs. F. Wilkin [sic] Died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. L. Bunch, Monday Afternoon


    It is scarcely two months since we were called upon to chronicle the death of Mr. Frederick Wilken and now it becomes our sad duty to announce the death of his aged partner, Mrs. Wilken, who passed away at the home of her son-in-law, Mr. L. Bunch, on Monday afternoon, after an illness extending over nine months. She had been ill with pneumonia for the past nine weeks, which ultimately caused her death. The deceased was born in Germany and came to this country about 45 years ago, and was married several years later to Mr. Wilken at Rumelhardt, where they first resided. They subsequently resided in a number of other places until finally they moved to Elmira, where they lived 22 years. About a year ago, Mrs. Wilken came to Waterloo and has resided with her daughter since then. Deceased was 68 years, 7 months and 18 days of age. Nine children were born to the couple, seven of whom survive, as follows: John, Henry and Charles of Elmira, William of Preston, Fred of Stony Plain, N.W.T., and two daughters, Mrs. Theodore Urtel, of Elmira and Mrs. L. Bunch, Albert St., Waterloo. The funeral will take place from the residence of Mr. Louis Bunch, Albert street, Waterloo at 2 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, to St. Paul's Lutheran church, Berlin, for service, thence to Mount Hope Cemetery for interment. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved.
