his daughter.

Henry Fortwengler, the well-known
Cottonwood farmer.
The younger Fortwengler lived in
| Minneapolis and was coach carpen-
ter in the employ of the Omaha road.
With friend, August Krick, he had
gone early Monday morning to Shady
| Oak lake, a mile and half southwest
OF Hopkins, for days fishing. When
the storm broke the two sought shell
ter in an abandoned shack or summer
house on the shore of the lake. The
wind wrecked the building and heavy
beam fell across Fortwengler's chest,
crushing it. Kriek crawled out unin-
jured and at once began tearing away
the timbers of the house to rescue his
| friend. Fortwengler died soon after
being taken out.
He was forty;three years old and
leaves wife and three or four chill
dren.
Mrs. Fortwengler, the surviving
widow, is a sister of Frank Schmelz
of Cottonwood and Postmaster John
Schmelz of Springfield. The latter
arrived in the city yesterday after
noon to attend the funeral which will
be held today.
