Chesterton Chips.
Louis Lohse, of this place, went to Fort Wayne Monday to investigate the report that the body of his father was in a medical college at that place awaiting dissection. He found the report true, and that his father, Peter Lohse, died very suddenly on Oct. 3 in the police station. The elder Lohse had been away from home for over two months, and was arrested in Bloomingdale on the night of Oct. 2. When Station Keeper Terry went to call him for court the next morning he was in a comatose condition, and he was ordered removed to Hope hospital, but before he could be taken out of the cell room he died. The son will bring the body here for burial this week.
