Mrs Louise Wedeking dies from carbon monoxide gas.
The grim reaper of death struck again in Dale Tuesday about noon when Mrs. Wedeking was found dead in the grage at her home.
Mrs. Wedeking apparently suffered from a fainting spell, Coroner Charles P Fuller said, and was overcome by the gas from the car that was still running when she was found.
Her son Charles found her when he came home from school for dinner.
The body was found in the corner of the garage at the rear of the automobile.
The door of the garage was open but the other door was shut preventing the body from being seen from the street.
George Linhadt who was working in his blacksmith shop next to the garage said he had heard the motor running for about an hour and a half before the body was found.

Louise Wedeking nee Bretz came into the home of William J and Emma Bretz on Sept 13 1900.
Taken by her parents to Huntingburg early in life she was confirmed in the Salem Evangelical Church of that city of which she was a devoted member until she came to Dale where she transferred her membership and activities to the Dale Methodist Episcopal Church in the work of which she showed much interest being especially active in the Epworth league at the time of her death.
Married on June 30 1927 to Hobart W Wedeking of Dale she graced the home they made together and endowed it with her charm and through its medium the circle of her friendship was enlarged, and when the only childa son Charles William now almost nine years of age was born, it seemed the cycle of her life became complete.
She reached her crowning glory in her motherhood and though her life was claimed so suddenly on April 4 1939 by Him who gave it , its impress has been made upon those she loved and thus her life endures.
Surviving are her parents and her sister Irene Weigel her husband and son, a host of other relatives and friends.
Funeral services were conducted at the home Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock with the Rev. Theo Schumacher pastor of the Salem Evangelical Reformed Church and pastor of the Dale M.E. Church in charge. Burial was in Dale Cemetery.
