      By Miss Miriam Hilborn (Chronicle Correspondent)

      Petersburg Man Direct Descendant Of Bohemian Martyr

      The funeral of the late Werner Huss of Petersburg was held at St. James Lutheran Church, Mannheim, on Sunday afternoon.

      The late Mr. Huss, who at one time resided on the farm now owned by Wallace Thibideau south of the village, was a direct descendant of John Huss, the great Bohemian reformer who suffered martyrdom for the cause of Christianity and was burned at the stake in his native land on July 6th, in the year 1415.
