DEATH OF MRS. WENGLER
Pioneer of St. Louis County Suffered Stroke of Paralysis
Mrs. Agnes Wengler died at her home in Allenton, St. Louis County, Wednesday morning from a complication of troubles, while her husband, Fred, lay in an adjoining room in a dangerous condition from an attack of pneumonia.
The Wenglers were probably the eldest couple in St. Louis County, and for the last half century have been prominent in society. Mr. Wengler is 79 years old, and has lived in the county sixty-seven years. His wife was 76 years old, and had lived in the county all her life.
Mrs. Wengler had a stroke of paralysis several weeks ago, and it was while attending to her wants that Mr. Wengler contracted the cold which afterwards developed into pneumonia. The paralytic stroke brought about a number of complications that hastened Mrs. Wengler's end.
Mrs. Wengler left seven children, the oldest of whom is Judge William C. Wengler of Clayton. The other children are Emily J. Allen, Jacob H. Wengler, Fred A. Wengler, Charles O. Wengler, Mamie Marie Browning and R.E. Wengler. They are all married, and most of them have grown families. Mrs. Wengler's funeral will probably be held tomorrow.
