A. J. Menckel, a resident of Festus for many years, 
passed away at his home on North Mill Street, Festus,
on Thursday of last week, after a lingering illness.
Mr. Menckel had been in failing health for sometime 
and the seriousness of his last illness was not apparent 
to the public since he was seen frequently on our Main 
Street and always appeared to be the possessor of a 
sturdy constitution and therefore it might be said that 
his end came unexpectedly to those who knew him and 
esteemed his words of greetings almost daily.

Funeral services were conducted at the Christian Church 
Sunday afternoon, Jan.18, Rev.Morris,Pastor officiating 
and he was laid to rest in the Methodist Cemetery. We 
extend condolence to his bereaved widow and daughters.
