Martha Polansky, the daughter of
Fred Polansky, died on Tuesday
morning about five o'clock from con-
sumption, after a sickness of about a
year. The deceased was 20 years, 5
months and 2 days old. She had an
attack of typhoid fever about a year
ago, from which she never fully recov-
ered, and which left her in such a
weakened condition that she fell a
victim to consumption. The funeral
occurs today from the Lutheran church
in Sigel, Rev. Baese officiating.
It would seem that Mr. Polansky is
having more than his share of trouble,
as this is the third daughter he has
lost, besides which his wife died less
than a year ago.
