Following his usual custom, he had arisen and was doing some chores about the house and had gone out to clear the snow from the walks. His son, William Thiel, noticed him leaning over against a post, but before he could reach him, he had fallen over in death. For some years past his health had been failing and he had grown more feeble. Th funeral services were held this afternoon at the Philadelphia church, conducted by Rev. Jacob Morach, assited by Rev. F. Eggerland. The burial was in the Ritzvill cemetery. A large crowd attended the service. John Thiel was born April 1843, in Kolb, northern Russia. In 1861 he was untied in marriage to Mary Elizabeth Meyer. In 1878 the family emigrated to the New World. They settled in Nebraska for several years and the came to Walla Walla, Washington Territory. In the spring of the next year, 1883, they came to this county, taking up a homestead west of Ritzville. Mr. Thiel was one of the pioneer settlers of the county and in common with others suffered many hardships in getting the soil into cultivation and production, contending against poverty and hardships of a new country. In 1904 he removed to town with his wife. She preceded him in death a little over seven years ago, dying in November, 1913. They were the parents of nine children, six sons and three daughters. One daughter, Mrs. Jacob Werttemberger died a number of years ago. The others who survive their father are: John A. Thiel, a farmer of Helmville, Montana; Rev. Peter Thiel, Hasting Nebraska; Henry W. Thiel, vice president American State Bank; Jacob Thiel, a farm residing west of town; William Thiel, asistant cashier, American State Bank and secretary of the Commercial Club; Fred Thiel, druggist, Odessa; Mrs. Marie Echardt and Mrs. Earl Colwell of this city.
