YOUNG LADY'S BODY TO BE TAKEN HERE

Miss Adeline Welk Dies At Milwaukee Following Two Operations For Appendicitis

The body of Miss Adeline Welk, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Welk, 1201 Jackson street, is expected to arrive in the city tomorrow morning from Milwaukee. Upon reaching this city, the remains will be in charge of Schram & Sons, undertakers, and will be taken to the home of the young lady's parents, where they will remain until the funeral services, which will be held later in the week, definite arrangements not having been made as yet.

The young lady, who is nineteen years of age, has been employed at Milwaukee, and was taken suddenly ill with appendicitis. She was taken to the Trinity hospital in that city, where she underwent one operation last Friday and another yesterday. Her relatives were notified of her serious condition and her mother immediately left for Milwaukee to be in attendance at the sick girl's bedside. Although no further details have as yet been received, it is thought that death occurred some time during the night.
