Death came very suddenly. While shoveling snow in front of his home, he received an attack of heart failure and before assistance reached him, life was extinct. Deceased was born in Austria on May 16, 1855. He came to America in September of the year 1860 and settled here, being one of this city’s pioneer residents. He was married to Mary Kubes on November 6, 1873, who, with seven children, survives him. The children are Mrs. Frank Horejsi, Mrs. H. J.

He is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Kate Suchomel, also of this city. The funeral was held from St. Wenceslaus Catholic church on Tuesday, March 12th at 10 o’clock A. M., Rev Dean Cermak officiating. The pallbearers were Frank Matyas, John Jelinek, John Bilek, John Hamer, Sr., John Herman, and Albert Kalvas. Deceased was a member of the C. S. D. P. J.
