ficiating. The interment was
lade in the Catholic cemetery.
ie pall-bearers were Ffcank
dioenfeld, Joe Heinrich, Joe

and Hugo Raab.
The Kubena choir rendered
some of the most beautiful
farewell hymns.
The deceased was a well

good friend and a liberal and
useful citizen. He cannot be
replaced, God wanted him so
we all have to give him up.
I thank Rev. Kopp for his
kind words in the name of the
family. May the good Lord
comfort the survivors.
Mrs. Sofka is the oldest dau-
ghter of John Kubicek one of
the most prominent families

Our sincere sympathy goes
