Hummel, 87 Years Old, Lived in This Community More Than 50 Years Funeral services were held here Sunday afternoon at the Methodist church for George Hummel, 87 years old, a real pioneer of this community who died at his home in Smithland late Friday night, following a stroke the previous Monday. Mr. Hummel had lived in Woodbury county for more than 50 years, farming extensively throughout this part of the county. He immigrated to America from Alsace Lorraine when 17 years old, settling first in Illinois. In recent years he had retired, making his home in Smithland. For years Mr. Hummel has been a familiar figure in this neighborhood, driving his pet horse and two-wheeled cart, preferring this method of transportation to the modern automobile. He enjoyed remarkably good health until his attack last week and read the newspapers every night without the aid of glasses. Mr. Hummel was preceded in death by his wife in December, 1930. He is survived by six children, J. J. Hummel of Oto, Ia.; D. F. Hummel, Mrs. L. F. Brown, Mrs. Earl Leetch and Mrs. W. A. Christman of Smithland and Mrs. Clifford Taylor of Climbing Hill, Ia.
