Mrs. Hilbert is Buried Sunday - Death of Sutherland Lady Comes as Surprise to Shock and Sadden Community of Friends

Mrs. Andrew Hilbert passed away last Thursday morning, October 1st, in the hospital at Cherokee where she was taken the day previous suffering from heart trouble and rheumatism. While it was known that she was not in the best of health the news of her death came as a shock to the whole community. For the past year and a half she was subject to heart attacks and in the spring with rheumatism, from which she seemed unable to regain her strength. She had been confined to her bed for three weeks and was taken to the hospital the day before she died.

Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at the Methodist church with Rev. Corwin Taylor in charge. It was one of the most largely attended funerals ever to be held in the church. Music was furnished by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bruner with Miss Frances Bruner accompanying. The pallbearers were E. J. Lage, Frank Moore, H. W. Johann, C. W. Johannsen, Wm. Peters and Roy Schimmer. Burial was in Waterman cemetery.
