HER VISIT ENDED BY DEATH
Mrs. John Gruman, Sr., who with her husband left a few weeks ago to spend the winter with her daughter Mrs. Frank Hess at Cavour, Wis., was brought to this city a corpse Saturday.

They resided on a farm on the northern boundary of the city and accumulated a goodly estate, Mrs. Grumann proving a valuable helpmate to her husband, who survives in raising a fine family of sturdy young men and women.

Koenig of this city and John Koenig of Seattle and five sisters, Mrs. Mathilda Bruhn of Mishicot, Mrs. Bertha Weber of Cincinnati, Mrs. Lena Freier of Antigo, and Mrs. Anna Kries and Mrs. Theresa Hartel of this city.
