The body will arrive in Alton this evening and will be taken to the Keiser undertaking rooms, and the fueral will be held from there tomorrow afternoon. Burial will be in Godfrey cemetery. Mr. Kolk was a well respected man, and there was general regret among acquaintances and neighbors when his mental trouble developed. This regret will be accentuated now because of his death.
