Charles Wulfjen Dies at Home of Senator Kendrick
Charles Wulfjen died Thursday morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs. John E. Kendrick, in Sheridan, after an illness which has extended over a period of several years. Since he returned to Sheridan from Texas about, two weeks ago his condition has been critical. Senator Kendrick was summoned from Washington last week. Mr. Wulfjen was among the early Wyoming pioneers and stock men. He came in from Texas in the early eighties and settled in Cheyenne.

The family occupied the property at 620 East Eighteenth street, now owned by F. A. M. Stuart, and was prominent in social circles and in the Methodist church. Wulfjen ran one of the largest cattle outfits on the Wyoming range and those associated with him in business dealings were Luke Voorhees, Thomas Durbin and the late J. W. Hammond. From Cheyenne, Mr. Wulfjen and his family went to Greeley and from there to Sheridan.

Funeral at Greeley.

In recent years, Mr. Wulfjen and his son-in-law, Senator Kendrick, have driven their cattle on Wyoming and Montana ranges near Sheridan.

Funeral services will be held at Greeley, Colo., and members of the family who make their home at Sheridan probably will accompany the remains there. Arrangements have not yet been complete, but the services probably will be held Saturday or Sunday.

The last visit Mr. and Mrs Wulfjen paid to Cheyenne was about two years ago when they were en route home from California. They were entertained at the Durbin home when the Kendricks occupied the executive mansion here. Mrs. Kendrick gave a party for her father, and many of the city pioneers who had known him in the early days attended.
