FORMER MISSIONARY TO CHINA CALLED BY DEATH AT FREEMAN, S. D.

Freeman, S.D. — Funeral services were held at the Salem Zion Mennonite Church here Jan. 5 for Mrs. J. J. (Louise) Schrag, former missionary to China, who died at the local hospital after suffering a stroke of paralysis. She was found unconscious in her room at the Miller hotel here Jan. 2 and died two days later.

Mrs. Schrag spent 39 years on the China field. Her husband passed away in Jerusalem in 1930 when they were en route home for furlough, and the body was returned here for burial. His wife later returned to China and was interned there by the Japanese during the recent war.
