The young lady had been ill about three weeks and until recently was not thought to be in serious condition. Typhoid fever was the cause of her death. Miss Geertz was the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Geertz, who with one sister, Anna, and two brothers John and Carl survive her. She was born in Lake township and there she resided until about three years ago, when, with her parents, she came to live in this city. Had she lived until January 6, next she would have attained the age of 21 years. She was a graduate of the business college in 1904 and during her school days made many warm friends who will be pained to hear of her death. The funeral services will be held at the late home of the young lady tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock with Rev. A. J. Kempton, pastor of the First Baptist church, in charge. Six young men, former classmates of Miss Geertz while she attended the business college, will act as pall bearers. Misses Bessie and Gertrude Reesink will sing "Abide With Me" the favorite hymn of the deceased, and other hymns. Interment will be made in Greenwood Cemetery.
