Vail, March Especial

Vail, March 3-Special-
Friends and relatives of Mr.. George
Dieter were sincerely grieved to hear
of his death, which took place Sat.
urday morning at st. Anthony's hos.
pital at Carroll, where he was taken
on Monday afternoon to undergo an
operation for paralysis of the bowels.
The operation was performed Friday
forenoon, but he failed to regain
strength and after few hours suf-
fering he finally succumbed to the
grim monster, and on last Saturday,
March l, 1918, the tired spirit took its
flight to suffer no more. His illness
had been watched and his recovery
prayed for by his Vail friends and It
is indeed with sincerity and deep feel
ings that the people sympathize with
the bereft wife and daughter. His
remains were brought home to Vail
Saturday afternoon. George L. Dieter
was born in Canton, O., June 13, 1868.
In 1881 he came to Jackson county,
Iowa. In 1883 he came to Crawford
county. April 10, 1888, at Breda he
was united in marriage to Miss Anna
Novotne. In 1889 they moved to Vail,
where he has been engaged in the
barber business ever since. He leaves
to mourn wife and daughter, two
brothers, R. j., of St. John, Mich, and
]. A., of Vail, and one sister, Mrs.
J. w. Dunkle, of Ovid, Mich. The
funeral took place this (Mondayl
morning at 10 o'clock from St. AIMS
church with solemn services BETTING
the final tribute to one who was ever
faithful member of the Catholic
church and true christian. Rev. Jas.
Murphy preached the funeral sermon
and voiced the lament OF the entire
congregation. The hand of death is
gradually depriving this congregation
of it's older members and this time
leaves us to mourn the loss OF a mod
ell christian man to whose memory
too much praise cannot be attributed.
Interment was in st. AIMS cemetery.
The bearers of the pail were: George
Robinson, John T. Walsh, E. I. Ryan,
William Enenbach, John Hickey and
Ben Olson. Those from distance at
tending the funeral were: R. J. Dieter,

church, namely the funeral of Mrs.
Dan Seaman. Her death occurred at
the family home in Vail last Sunday,
March. 2, 1913, between 3 and in

which time she was extended many
consoling words by her friends and
neighbors of the family. Deceased

best of wives and mothers and was
