His body was found in the river right east of the Youngblut farm, instead of west as reported in Wednesday's Reporter. The body was left in the river until after the arrival of Coroner McManus of Waterloo. He was then taken out by the aid of a hammock. The sum of money which he carried on his person was found all safe in the pocket book, which was found in his pocket. It contained $65.15. This goes to prove that no foul play was used in connection with the drowning which occurred on March 6th. The case is the saddest that has occurred in this vicinity, and is the more remarkable because so many different stories were started since the man was missing. Quite a number seemed positively convinced that the man was still alive, and wandering about. The finding of his body in the river clears up all the mysteries that overshadowed the sad affair, and the remains of the unfortunate man were given a Christian burial. A requiem high mass was said and funeral services were held at the church. Interment took place in the Catholic cemetery. He was a devout believer of the Catholic faith, a loving husband, a good father and peaceful neighbor. He leaves five children to mourn his death, one daughter, Mrs. Math Demuth, having preceded him in death last fall. The remaining children are: Mrs. Peter Bahl of Washburn; Mrs. John Demuth of Fox Township, this county; Mrs. Peter Schmitt of Waucoma, Iowa; William of Raymond and Nick of this place. The bereaved family has the sympathy of the entire community, as they are liked and will not soon be forgotten. May the souls of the departed parents who were buried only ten days apart rest in peace. --------------------------- Valentine's paternal link was provided courtesy of Find A Grave member Daniel Cummins.
