MRS. LYDIA SCHULZ

On Saturday, May 11, Mrs. Albert Schulz fell while coming from her garden, badly injuring her spine, and she was forced to go to bed. She had not been in good health for some time and on Sunday, May 19th, pneumonia developed, but the lungs seemed to clear and it was assumed that a blood clot gathered in her heart, causing her death which occurred Monday, May 27, at about noon. About the time that the family lived in the latter place, the deceased went to live with relatives in St. Louis where she was employed in a publishing house. In 1900 her mother, following the death by accident of the husband, moved to St. Louis, and the daughter made her home with her.

In 1906 she was married to Albert Schulz, who was a graduate minister, and from 1906 to 1912 they resided in Yorktown, Saskatchewan, Canada, and then moved to Janesville, Minn., where they lived until 1920, and the next five years they made their home at Downs, Kansas.

In 1925 Mr. Schulz resigned from the ministry and moved to Blair, living south of town until last April when they moved to the Rosenbeck place just west of Blair.

Surviving Mrs. Schulz are her husband and five children: Mrs. Alfred Frese of Omaha; Theodore of Westcliff, Colorado; Alfons, who is teaching at Beemer; Olga, who is taking nurse’s training at Lutheran hospital in Sioux City and Eldor, who is still at home. One grandchild and one sister in Germany, also two aunts in Germany and numerous relatives in St. Louis.

Funeral services were held this Thursday afternoon at 2 o’clock from the home and at 2:30 from the Trinity Lutheran church on Second and Lincoln streets, and interment was made in the Blair cemetery.
