      Mrs. Maynard Bock Dies Early Wednesday Morning After Short Illness

      Mrs. Maynard Bock died very suddenly early yesterday morning from an acute obstruction of the bowels. She has not been feeling in the best of health the past winter and Tuesday afternoon was taken worse and a doctor was called.

      Mrs. Sophia Bock was 63 years of age on the 1st day of last December and has resided in this village for the past thirty-five years, and was the mother of a large family. The children are John, of Helena, Mont.; George, of Sauk Centre; Mrs. John Curves, of this village; Tom, of La Clede, Idaho; Celia Hardin, of Jamestown, N. D.; Edwin and Miss Ida, of this village. She was always a very kind and loving mother and will be missed by all.

      The funeral will be held from the house this afternoon and interment made in the cemetery here. The Argus extends sympathy to the bereaved family.
