OBITUARY
Sudden Death. Jonathan Dreitzler, in the Vigor of Middle Age, a Victim of Heart Disease.
On last Saturday we were informed that Jonathan Dreitzler, who lived near Burket, had died very suddenly on the evening before, (Jan. 5, '94)
In comparatively good health he had completed his day's work and had come into the house to rest when the summons came suddenly, and in a very short time his life on earth was ended.
Mr. Dreitzler was about 45 years of age, and was one of the prosperous and highly respected citizens of Seward township. We had been acquainted with him for many years and had know him to be a worthy man whose usefulness in the community will be greatly missed. He was a member of the U. B. church and his life was consistent with his profession. The funeral took place at Palestine on Sunday conducted by Rev. Parker, of Burket. The very large attendance showed the high esteem in which the deceased was held by his neighbors and friends.
