Newton resident Mrs. Truettner died of old age debility Saturday
before last. She had been ill for many years and was confined to
her bed the last year. The deceased was one of the first settlers
in our county, having arrived here with her husband in 1846 when
it was still a wilderness. Her husband has been dead for many
years. Most recently she has been living with her son Ernst. Her
funeral was held Tuesday at the cemetery of the Methodist Church.
She was almost 90 years of age.
