Unknown Brown Co. Paper - November 3, 1915
MRS. OTTO RADKE
  Death came as a relief to Mrs. Otto Radke at her home on North Broadway 
Monday noon.  For three years and six months she had been afflicted with 
cancer of the stomach and for a long time had suffered excruciating pain.  
Everything was done to save her life but without avail.
  The deceased whose maiden name was Emilie Werner was born in New Ulm May 
16, 1873 and was therefore only 42 years old when she died.  She attended 
the public schools and grew to womanhood here in New Ulm.  In 1896 on the 
11th of November she was married to Otto Radke.  Immediately after their 
marriage the moved onto a farm in the Town of Milford where she resided 
continuously until the fall of 1914 when they were forced, on account of 
her illness, to give up active farm life and moved to New Ulm.
  Mrs. Radke is survived by her husband and two daughters, Elsie and Alwina 
who are both at home.  She is also survived by her aged mother, Mrs. Minnie 
Werner, and a sister, Mrs. Jas. Morrison, of Minneapolis.
  The funeral will be held Thursday afternoon at two o'clock with the 
services at the house and thereafter at St. Pauls Lutheran Church, Rev. 
Albrecht officiating.  Interment will be made in the Lutheran cemetery.
