Death of Mrs. John Mohre
  Mrs. John Mohre passed away at her home in this city Saturday evening at 7
o’clock, of paralysis, after an illness of several weeks.  She became
unconscious a week before her death, and although she regained
consciousness a couple of times and seemed to recognize those about her,
there was no hope of her recovery and her demise was hourly expected.  The
great vitality of the aged patient was a surprise to the attending
physician and others and there are few cases of record where a person has
lingered so long under like conditions.  Her death was entirely painless
and was a fitting close to her long and useful career.
  The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Eyrich of the Evang. Luth.
church conducting the ceremonies, and the remains were interred in Brown
cemetery.  Services were held at the home and in the church and the many
beautiful flower offerings showed the esteem in which deceased was held.
  Deceased’s maiden name was Fredericka Stiehm, and she was born in
Schuetzenborg, Germany, Jan. 7, 1833, and came to America in 1851, settling
at Watertown, Wis., where she was married in 1855 to John Mahr [sic.] and
came to Henderson with her husband the following year.  Nine children were
born to them, of whom only four are living, viz: Mrs. Chas. Brown of Sauk
Centre, Mrs. C. H. Laufman of Chicago, Mrs. H. W. Bosel and John J. Mohre
of this place.  Her husband died many years ago.
