Conrad Franz, one of our old veterans, was buried today under
the auspices of the Local Post of the G.A.R. The 78-yr. old
Franz fought in the Crimean War and after he came to America,
also fought in our Civil War, from which service he drew a
pension. He settled on a small farm near Range Line about 5
miles from here, and it was there that he died. His body was
carried from there by the veteran’s organization to the Catholic
Church where his funeral was held. Conrad Franz, a long-time
subscriber to Der Nord Westen, leaves a sorrowing widow and
several grown children.
