Mrs. Brey of Lafayette Dies Very Suddenly

Mrs. Wolfgang Brey,47, of Lafayette Township, was found dead in the kitchen of her home this morning when her husband went to see why she had not come out to join him in doing the chores. Death was the result of a heart attack, the Nicollet county coroner reported.

Although Mrs. Brey had been under treatment of a physician, it was for other troubles and it was not known that she had a heart disorder.

Mr. and Mrs. Brey rose as usual this morning and he went to the barn while she started breakfast following their usual custom. She usually came out later to help with the chores and when she did not appear, Mr. Brey returned to the house to investigate. He found his wife lying on the kitchen floor.
