Sudden Death of Mrs. Carl F. Schatz.

Mrs. Carl F. Schatz passed away at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Eilers last Sunday morning at 7 o'clock.

In her early infancy she was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran Church. her home was close to Monticello, and she was able to attend the local public schools, graduating there from in 1914. After teaching in the rural schools of Jones county, she was united in marriage to Carl F. Schatz, November 3, 1915.
