Waak Home which Lost Wife and Mother, Now Mourns Child
Death invaded the home of Theodore Waak, town of Newton, for a second time within two weeks last night when the Grim Messenger summoned Agnes, the 14 year old daughter of the home. The child's death was due to typhoid-pneumonia, the disease which claimed the life of her mother only a week ago last Monday, Mrs. Waak having been ill but a short time, as was her daughter.
The father and nine brothers and sisters survive the child, who was born in Newton November 2, 1899. The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon from the Lutheran church in Newton.
