C.S. Hohenschuh succumbed at three o'clock this morning to a ten days fight with influenza. The summons came at the family home on north Gilbert street and put an end to the hopes of a legion of friends who hoped until the last that he might be spared. Mr. Hohenschuh was fifty-three years of age and had passed practically his whole life in this the city of his birth. He married Miss Clara Dostal. The daughter of John P. Dostal, one of Iowa City's very best known citizens of former days. She with their two lovely daughters, Mary and Loretta survive him and to them thus deprived of his close companionship, is extended the sincere sympathy of countless friends. The others left to mourn an excellent son and brother are: his mother, Mrs. Theresa Hohenschuh, far advanced in years, and W. P. Hohenschuh, one of the city's most spirited men, and Dr. Frank Hohenschuh, a prominent Clinton physician. For many years Mr. Hohenschuh has been associated with the C.L. Wiencke firm of book dealers and here too his spirit of service and cordiality will be well might irreparable loss. The funeral will be private and will be held tomorrow and 9:30 a.m. from the home 225 north Gilbert street, with interment in St. Joseph cemetery.
