Wednesday morning he and Mrs. Hein drove to Mason City to call on Mrs. Fred Prelip, a sister-in-law, who is in the hospital recovering from an operation. He was in his usual health apparently and not until this side of Clear Lake on the way home did he complain. He said that his face had a peculiar feeling and later said his right hand was numb, and as he neared town said his leg was also numb. He managed to drive on to Garner, stopped at the Schissel store, where his daughter Mildred was called and drove the car home. As soon as Mildred took the wheel Mr. Hein collapsed and when they reached home in the southwest part of Garner he was unable to get out of the car. W.H. Drake helped him to the house and a physician was called. He grew worse steadily and shortly after noon he became unconscious. He passed away shortly after midnight. The funeral was held from the Methodist Church Saturday afternoon, conducted by his former pastor, Rev. A.W. Gauger of Klemme, and was largely attended by many old friends and neighbors. Mrs. Floyd Fraser and Miss Maude Blackstone sang at the service. The pallbearers were his three half brothers, Frank, Art, and Fred Prelip of Kanawha, and a cousin Will Schlichting of Garner and his brothers-in-law, Chas. Grau of Garner, and John Grell of Clear Lake. Mr. Hein was born in Pomerania, Germany, on the 22nd day of March 1869. When he was a small boy he came to America with his mother, his father having been accidentally killed. His mother located in this county and later married Fred Prelip. Gus grew up to manhood in this county. For a time he worked in a pottery factory in Fort Dodge and later worked on the Great Lakes. Following a sick spell he returned to Garner and took up farming with his stepfather. He married in 1895 to Miss Emma Hesley, and they became housekeeping on the farm which he had bought and where son Clarence now lives. Seven years ago Gus' health became poor and they left the farm and came to Garner, and built the fine house in the southwest part of town which has since been their home. He also owned the farm where his daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. John Borchers live. Besides his wife he leaves one son, Clarence, and two daughters, Mrs. John Borchers and Mildred who lives at home, three grandchildren, three half brothers, Frank, Art, and Fred Prelip of Kanawha, and two half-sisters, Mrs. Paul Kemp of Goodell and Mrs. Otto Kemp of Fort Dodge. His mother passed away many years ago. Gus was a good man, a loving husband and father, kind neighbor and a friend to his friends. He was a large, whole-hearted man, and pleasant to meet. During the time, and always had many friends calling in to see him. He united with Grace Methodist Church, and was a Christian man. When the Methodist churches in Garner combined, he affiliated with the M.E. Church, and was a consistent member, regular in attendance and willing to do his part. In the death of Mr. Hein the family, the church and the community has lost a good man. CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank the many kind neighbors and friends for the beautiful floral offerings and for the sympathy extended following the death of our dearly beloved husband and father. Mrs. Emma Hein and Children. Garner Leader, August 25, 1917 GUS F. HEIN SUFFERS STROKE OF PARALYSIS WHILE DRIVING AUTO PASSED AWAY AT 1:30 THIS MORNING--HAD BEEN IN POOR HEALTH FOR YEARS Sadness filled the hearts of friends and aquaintances today when word went forth of the suden death of Gus. F. Hein, which occured at 1:30 this morning at the family home in the southwest part of town. Although Mr. Hein has been in poor health for a number of years, being afflicted with dropsy, news of his death was startling to many residents of this vicinity who were not aware that his codition was more serious than usual. Yesterday morning shortly before 8 o'clock he and Mrs. Hein motored to Mason City to visit his sister-in-law, Mrs. Fred Prelip, of Kanawha who is a patient at Mercy hospital following an operation for goitre. He seemed to be feeling exceptionally well and had planned to make a trip to the south part of the county during the afternoon. A short distance this side of Clear Lake, on the return trip, Mr. Hein complained of having a numb feeling in the left side of his face and later said that the left arm and limb were also becoming affected. By a supreme effort he managed to steer the automobile and they succeeded in reaching Garner in safety. They stopped at the C.H. Schissel store where their daughter, Miss Mildred, is employed, and she drove the car home. He was helped into the house by a neighbor, W.H. Drake, and a physician called. During the early part of the afternoon he became unconcious and remained in that condidtion until his passing. Gus F. Hein was born in Pommerin, Germany, on the 22nd day of March, 1869, thus having reached his 58th birthday. His father was killed by a falling tree when Gus was a child of some four years of age. When a lad of tender years he and his mothercame to America and located in Hancock County. Later the mother was married to Fred Prelip. For a time Mr. Hein made his home in Fort Dodge where he was employed in a pottery as an expert moulder, and later worked on the Great Lakes. While employed there he was taken ill with typhoid fever and then returned to Garner where he took up farming with his stepfather on the Schuler farm. In 1895 he was united in marriage with Miss Emma Hesley, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.M. Hesley, and took up housekeeping on the farm which he purchased and which is now tenanted by his son, Clarence Hein. There they resided until 1921 when, on account of poor health, he was forced to give up the strenuous duties of farm life and they moved to Garner. Shortly after moving to town they built the beautiful, modern home where they are now living. Last year he purchased the Joe Schneider farm which adjoins the old homestead and whichis occupied by their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. John Borchers. It will be remembered that deceased was the victim of an aotomoble accident some few months ago when the car driven by Mrs. Pete Hanson collied with the auto driven by Mr. Hein. He recovered however, fully, from the effects of the smashup and resumed his duties at the local cream station. Later he was forced to give up the work because of failing health, but his condition just previous to his passing was considered fairly good. Mr. Hein was one of the successful farmers of this part of the county and by his honesty and jovial good fellowship, won the respect and esteem of his neighbors and acquaintances. He leaves to mourn his passing, his wife, a son, Clarence, and two daughters, Mildred, who is at home, and Mabel, who is now Mrs. John Borchers; three half brothers, Fred, Frank and Art Prelip, of Kanawha, and two half sisters, Mrs. Paul Kemp of Goodell and Mrs. Otto Kemp of Fort Dodge. His mother passed away thirty years ago. He also leaves three grandchildren, Ruby, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Hein and Marguerite and Merlin, children of Mr. and Mrs. Borchers. Funeral services will be held at 1:30 Saturday afternoon at the home and at 2:00 o'clock at the Methodist church, the Rev. A.W. Gauger of Klemme, being in charge. Mr. Hein became a member of the local Methodist church during the pastorate of Mr. Gauger.
