DIED IN COLORADO
A.G. Lange and Son, Howard Lange
The remains of A.G. Lange and son Howard, mention of whose deaths were made in last week's Reporter, arrived in this city at 3:30 Wednesday afternoon over the Milwaukee road and were taken to the Christian church where impressive funeral services were held at 1:30 p.m. Thursday after which all that was mortal of father and son were tenderly conveyed to Riverside cemetery where they now rest in peace. Rev. William Baler, pastor of the Christian church, conducted the services and spoke in, words of tenderest sympathy and comfort to the bereaved ones who had been called upon to part with, their loved ones, first the son and brother, and then within a few short days the husband and father.
None but those who have sat in the shadow of a great bereavement can justly weigh such a sorrow as death brings and it is seldom indeed that the death angel visits a family circle twice within so short a time.
