Lapp, Ella (1896 - 14 Sep 1926)

Word was received here last Saturday that Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Lapp's oldest daughter, Ella, had died of lung fever Friday and would be buried Monday from their Merrill home.

Ella Lapp was born in Dorchester, Clark County, Wis. Country a little more than 30 years ago and even after her parents moved to Merrill came here for occasional visits and was welcomed by all who knew her.

She had been married twice, her little son by the first marriage will make his home with his grandparents, while the little daughter by the second marriage will go to live with her daddy. Ella's husband was in the hospital at the time of her death, having lost an eye.

Those from here who motored over Monday for the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Albert Lapp, Mr. and Mrs. Herman Lapp and Mrs. Peter Schumacher, Mr. and Mrs. Thierbach started but car trouble made them abandon the trip. Mr. Thierbach is Mrs. Rudolph Lapp's brother.

The many Dorchester friends sympathize with the Rudolph Lapp family in their deep sorrow.
