Saturday morning Mrs. Peter Jensen, who lives on a farm about a mile west of the city, drowned herself by jumping into the well. She had commenced the preparation for breakfast and suddenly disappeared. After searching for some time, her body was found in the well. She was 62 years of age and leaves a husband, two sons and one daughter. For some time her folks have noticed a mental failing, but none supposed that it was taking the form that would cause her to do herself or anyone else any bodily injury. In their bereavement the family has the sympathy of a large number of friends who hold them in high esteem.
