Death Calls Two in Nebraska Community

Henderson, Neb. — A retired farmer of Henderson and one who was still active on his farm near Hampton died unexpectedly within a few days of each other. Both were members of the Bethesda Mennonite Church here, where the funeral services were conducted.

Henry B. Buller, 66, was found by his wife, slumped over the steering wheel of his tractor at the farm near Hampton on Aug. 21. He had been doing some field work in the evening and apparently died while the tractor was moving. It came to rest against a fence, with the motor still running.

On Monday, Aug. 25, Isaac I. Bergen, 71, died at his home of a heart condition. He was a native of this community and had farmed near here until his retirement in 1943.
