. . .

— Three deaths occurred in the Goessel community in less than a week. The first was last Friday, when Ben Nickel passed away at his home south of Goessel. He was 66 years of age. He was interred in the Alexanderwohl cemetery Tuesday. The second one to answer the final summons was the aged Mrs. Woelk, who had reached the ripe old age of 91 years. Funeral services for her will be held tomorrow. The last to be called was Mrs. J. R. Schmidt, who died Monday after an illness of about one week. All are survived by many relatives and friends. The Review extends its heart-felt sympathy to the bereaved families.
