Following a month's illness, Fred Reuter passed away at his home in Monticello at 6:30 o'clock Tuesday morning, October 1. Nearly a year ago his health began to fail, but he did not consider it necessary to call a physician until five weeks ago. His final illness confined him to his bed for a week. Mr. Reuter was a native of Germany. He was born at Repsholt, East Friesland, Germany, May 23, 1864. Shortly after his birth he was baptized, and later at the proper age was confirmed as a member of the Lutheran church. Mr. Reuter was a son of the late Carl Friedrich and Anna Eckhof Reuter. Came to America in 1881. Like many other young men, living in Germany in the early eighties, Mr. Reuter sought to cast his fortune as a farmer in America. He left his native soil in 1881 at the age of 17 year and emigrated to the United States. He was employed on various farms in Jones county until his marriage. On November 25, 1886 Mr. Reuter was united in marriage of Anna M. Behrends at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran church. The marriage ceremony was performed by the late Rev. Von Strohe. Following the marriage, the young people commenced farming for themselves. They first lived on rented farms until they accumulated enough to purchase the Reuter farm located six miles north of Monticello. Mr. and Mrs. Reuter and their family lived on that farm until their retirement from active farm work. Their son William now operates the farm. Six Children in the Home There were six children born to Mr. and Mrs. Reuter all of whom together with their mother, mourn the loss of a loving father and a kind husband. The children are; Mrs. R.H. Monk f Lovell township; William of Lovell township, Mrs. E.B. First f Anamosa, Carl of Waterloo, and Albertina of De Moines. There are also thirteen grandchildren and two great grandchildren. He is also survived by a sister, Mrs. Chris Decker of Monticello and a brother, William Reuter, of California. Until the time of his death, Mr. Reuter was an active and faithful member of St. John's Lutheran congregation of Wayne township. He was a man of rigid integrity, and was well liked and respected for his kindly and genial character. Funeral services were held this afternoon at 1 o'clock at the family home in Monticello and at 1:30 at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran church. Rev. Paul T. Guknecht, Mr. Reuters' pastor had charge of both services. Burial was made in the cemetery adjoining the church. The pall bearers at the funeral were all nephews of Mr. Reuter.
