. . .
—Coming quite unexpectedly, the death of Mrs. Helena Ratzlaff, wife of Rev. Abr. Ratzlaff of Buhler, occurred at the Bethel Hospital early Monday morning. Mrs. Ratzlaff had been brought to the hospital on Sunday, seriously ill from heart trouble. Thus death has parted one of the best known aged couples among Mennonites in this part of the state. Mrs. Ratzlaff was 74 years of age, although her husband is considerably older. Funeral services will be held at the Hoffnungsau church at Inman on Friday afternoon. Among the children surviving are H. A. Ratzlaff, and Mrs. Ratzlaff, of this city.
