He was 84 years, 8 months and 20 days old. Mr. Seibel had been an invalid for the last five years. In 1918 he went to Omaha and submitted to three operations. The first was for the removal of a toe, the second for the removal of the leg and the third to have the bone cut to get relief from gangrene. Last year the infection developed in the other foot and on January 10 he was taken to the Spencer hospital and the second leg was amputated. For a time the patient seemed to be recovering but later commenced to fall rapidly until death ended his sufferings. Funeral services will be held at the Congregational church Thursday, February 8, at two o'clock conducted by the Rev. A. M. Lichleiter. Veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic and members of the Women's Relief Corps will act as pall bearers and a firing squad from the American Legion will give a final salute at the grave. Mr. Seibel was born at Limberg, Germany, May 15, 1838. He came to America in 1853 and was married on August 17, 1867, at Sigourney, to Dina Mohme, who died November 28, 1920. To this union were born ten children, Anna Boylan, of Spencer, Frank of Signourney, Nannie, the wife of J.A. Fulton, of Gurnee, Illinois, who died September 29, 1903, Josephine, the wife of D.J. Logan, of Riverton township, Clara, the wife of W.J. Maurer, of Spencer, Mary the wife of Frank Beck, of Aberdeen, South Dakota, Minnie the wife of G.W. Hiatt, of Pomona, California, Florence, the wife of W.J. Fuller, who lived with Mr. Seibel until his death, Henry and Carl of Lincoln township, twenty grandchildren and on great-grandchild, off of whom survive him. It is expected that all the relatives will be present at the funeral today. Mr. Seibel enlisted in the War of the Rebellion with company F, eighth Iowa infantry, in 1861, and saw service for four years and eight months. He was wounded at the battle of Shiloh and spent nine months in the hospital. One of the first to go to war in defense of his country, he always enjoyed telling of his war experiences and he had many of them to tell. In 1882 he moved to Clay county, locating in Lincoln township, where later the Annieville postoffice was established and Mr. Seibel was made postmaster. He held this position as well as many others of trust and responsibility, until the Star route was discontinued. In 1911 he moved to Spencer and has resided at 380 West Third street since. Although confined to his bed for more than four years, he never complained of his lot. He was a man of strictest business integrity and numbered his friends by his acquaintances.
