Lake Odessa Times - December 23, 1903
                       SUDDEN SUMMONS

     CAME TO ANDREW J. WEIPPERT OF SEBEWA

       HE HAD BEEN WORKING IN HIS GRIST MILL

     ALL DAY AND DIED AT 11:30 SATURDAY NIGHT

   Andrew J. Weippert, proprietor of Weippert's mill north of Sebewa Corners, died
last Saturday night of 
appoplexy. He was buried Monday afternoon, in the little cemetery across from his
home.

   "Tommy", by which name he was familiary known, had been working hard in the mill
all day and after closing 
the mill he walked over to the Corners for his mail and after reaching home retired
at 8:30.

   At about 11:30 his wife was awakened by his heavy breathing and on striking a
light, found his face to be 
turning purple.  She ran immediately to a neighboring house and telephoned Dr.
Morse, but Mr. Weippert died 
in a a few moments.  He was 38 years of age, strong and healthy and the shock is a
sever one to his wife who 
was formerly Miss Jennie Lyda and whom he married last June.  the funeral services
were held in the M. E. 
church in Sebewa at 12 o'clock Monday. 

   I twill be remembered that it was only a short time ago that the elder Weippert,
an old man, was called to 
the door and struck senseless, by unkonown men.  A few months later he died and the
younger Weippert 
moved in and conducted the business until hie death, last Saturday.
