  • Notes 
    • MRS. AUGUST TOTZKE.

      The death took place at an early hour on Tuesday of Catherine Meyer, the beloved wife of Mr. August Totzke at Berlin. The deceased had been a sufferer for three years from dropsy and during the last twelve days has been seriously ill from heart failure. The late Mrs. Totzke was a faithful wife and kind and loving mother and although of a retiring disposition will be greatly missed by her family and a wide circle of friends. She is survived by her husband and six children, viz., Mrs. Alfred Sherer and Messrs. Herman, Alfred, Arno, Oscar and Clarence. The funeral took place on Thursday at 2 p.m. from the residence to St. Matthew's Lutheran Church and from thence to Mount Hope Cemetery.
