Pioneer Lady of Pepin Hill Dies of Heart Trouble

Mrs. Caroline Lager, widow of the late Benedict Lager, died at the old home on Pepin Hill Saturday morning [7 Feb 1925] at 2 o'clock, death being due to an attack of heart trouble with which she had been ill for about a week.
Deceased, whose maiden name was Caroline Helen Welp, was born in Hanover, Germany, November 6, 1850 and came to America with her parents when ten years of age, the family settling on a farm on Pepin Hill.
She was married to Benedict Lager in April 1870, and has been a resident in Pepin township ever since. She was bereft of her husband on March 4, 1904 [1 March 1905], and is now survived by the following children: Benedict and Joseph of Wabasha, Edward and Frank of St. Paul, Mrs. E. H. Wise, Lake City, Mrs. William Mars, Pepin Hill and Henry and George at home.
She is also survived by two brothers, Joseph Welp of Pepin and Clem Welp of Plainview, and one sister, Mrs. Mary Passe of Pepin Hill.
Mrs. Lager was one of those hard working pioneer women of the county who went through all the trials and hardships incident to the building up of the country. She was a devoted wife, a kind mother and a dutiful daughter. She was a faithful member of the St. Felix Catholic Church of this city, from where the funeral was held at 10 o'clock, Monday morning, February 9, and interment was made in St. Felix cemetery, Rev.
