Luther Called by Death Mrs. Edward Luther passed away on Saturday morning at about 6:45 o'clock after hope for her ultimate recovery had been abandoned earlier in the week when her condition was reported as being very low. Her death followed a year of declining health during which time she had undergone hospitalization and treatment in Fremont, and later on had been through the Mayo Bros. clinic at Rochester, Minn., and submitted to an operation at that place. She returned to her home the latter days of October, but did not regain health or strength as family and friends had hoped for her. Dorathea Elizbeth Kusel Luther, daughter of August F. and Marguerite Heller Kusel, was born September 16, 1868, on the homestead of her pioneer parents two and a half miles northeast of Hooper. At the age of seven she moved with her parents to Watertown, Wisc., where she attended the public schools, was confirmed in the Lutheran faith and grew to fine Christian womanhood. For a number of years she conducted a small merchandise store in Watertown, while living with and caring for her aged parents. She was united in marriage to Edward Luther of Hooper at Watertown on January 10, 1923, and since that time she had made her home here where death called her on January 20, 1940 at the age of 74 years, 4 months and 4 days. Mrs. Luther was known for her kindness as a neighbor, for her devotion to her husband and his children and grandchildren, whom she loved and served and looked upon as her very own, and who in return gave her the deep affection naturally accorded to a mother and grandparent. She was a member of Friendship chapter, Order Eastern Star, and of Grace Lutheran church and the Aid society, in which organizations she was interested and active as long as her health permitted. Surviving to mourn the loss of this good woman are her husband, Edw. M. Luther, and her three foster children; Mrs. George H. Looschen and Howard W. Luther, Hooper, and Ernest Luther, Arlington, Va.; twelve grandchildren, one brother, William M. Kusel, Hooper, two sisters, Mrs. Clara Meschke, Rochester, Minn., and Mrs. Mary Hilbert, Tom's River, N. J. and a host of friends, both here and in Watertown, Wisc. She was preceded in death by her parents and three brothers and two sisters. Funeral services were held from the home on Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock and at 2 o'clock from the Grace Lutheran church with Rev. W. W. Alexander bringing the spiritual message of comfort to the large assembly of sorrowing relatives and friends. The ritualistic service of the Eastern Star was used in the services at the home, members of the order having attended the funeral rites in a body. Relatives from a distance present were Mrs. Meschke of Rochester, Ernest Luther of Arlington, Va., and John Luther of Colfax, Ia. Interment, directed by Wollmer & Warne, was made in Hooper cemetery. Serving as pallbearers were Gus Alhers, Edward and Otto Luther, all of Wisner, Henry and Edward Luther of Fremont, and Dick Von Seggern of Wisner.
