Mrs. Augusta Richter, age 85, passed away at the home of Miss Bertha Kraut, Curtiss (Clark Co., Wis.), on Monday morning, Jan. 2nd, 1949 (Monday of 1949 was actually the 3rd, not the 2nd as printed in the paper).

She was born on June 11, 1863, in Herzfelde, Germany and came to the United States with her husband about fifty-four years ago. Since the death of her husband in July 1947 she has been cared for by Miss Kraut.

Funeral services were conducted this afternoon, Thursday, Jan. sixth, at two o’clock from the Evangelical Reformed Church. The Rev. Franz Puhlman officiated and burial was made in the Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery.

A son, John, died in World War I and an infant son have also preceded her in death.
