Adele Mueller

Adelia Mueller, formerly Hazel A.
Wheeler, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clark Wheeler, was born March 80,
1898, at Milwaukee. How great, un-
selfish and 6elf4denying must have
been the love of her mother, saying,
"T1l give my darling baby (of IL
months) in care better thans4 can
offer. Rev. A Dyshart, at that time
superintendent of the Children's
Home finding Society of Wisconsin,
overlooking the circumstances in
bringing the parties together, made
the remark, Surely, the hand of
Providence is acting in this remarkar
Bile case"
Since her girlhood days, dear
Adelia was attached in sincere love
to the Saviour, Jesus, loving Him with
all of her mind and soul. This can
also be concluded out of the two
hymns she had long ago selected for
the given occasion of her burial:
LET Me Go to Meet My Jesus" and
Lord, Let Me Enter in Most Beauti-
full Heaven" Some of her favorite
songs were Face to Face and "Jeru-
salem, Thou City Fair and High
Jerusalem, thou city fair and high,
Would God l were in thee!
My longing heart fain, fain TO thee
would fly.
It would not stay with me;
Far over vale and mountain,
Far over field and plain,
It hastes to seek it's Fountain
And quit this world of pain.
Adelia was rejoicing in the comfort
her faith gave unto her and instead
Of complaining, she sang in patience
and devotion her jubilee songs of
praise and alteration She had hap
py disposition and a most lovable and
amiable character, always being
cheerful, as her nearer friends know.
So she was also a loving child and
daughter of her parents, who will
greatly miss her.
On the 5th day of January the Lord
came to call her after a long siege
and illness of six years duration. She
surely had beent a patient sufferer,
departing this life at an age of 20
years, 9 months and 6 days. Her flu
neral took place from the Lutheran
parsonage to the Baraboo cemetery
January 9, Rev. Popp officiating. The
church choir sang the above named
hymns and at the grave: "Now Rest
in the Arms of Jesus" Those surviv
ing are Rev. and Mrs. H. Mueller.
She will rest in peace till the day of
joyous resurrection though Jesus,
our beloved Saviour.
A short time before Adelia fell
asleep in Jesus, she wanted to express
once more in this way her deepest ap-
probation and gratitude to her friends
who so kindly remembered her in her
sickness and prayed to the dear Lord
to reward such love and kindness be-
slowed unto her. The pallbearers
were: Edward Blackwell, Oscar IsenA
berg, Louis Isenberg, William ZannS
zow, E. Merz and Irwin Ankenbrandt.
The singers were: Mrs. E. Schudlick,
