ADOLPH LUDWIG HAACK

Death, the ruthless destroyer, came peacefully and painlessly to Adolph Haack Monday night at his home in this city. He had been a semi-invalid for a generation and was compelled to leave his farm and move to town many years ago, by reason of his physical disabilities. He was an early settler in this county locating on a farm northwest of Blair in the early seventies and was a much respected honorable man. He was passed 70 years of age and was the father of Hugo Haack, a respected farmer of DeSoto, and a married daughter living in Oregon, children by his first wife, who died 36 years ago. In the early nineties he married Mrs. Emma Trontow and of that marriage seven children are living. The funeral service was held at the family home on South street at 2 o’clock P.M. on Thursday and the remains interred by the side of his first wife in the Blair cemetery.
