Death of Mrs. August Belka

Mrs. Aug. Belka died at the family home, 309 Smith street, at 
4:30 o'clock Monday afternoon, after a long illness with stomach 
trouble.  She was born at Bellant, Germany and was 57 years of 
age and her maiden name was Mary Kleszky and she was married 
in her native town 35 years ago to Aug. Belka.  They arrived 
in this country 19 years ago next June, and after residing a 
few months at Buffalo, N.Y., came directly to Stevens Point, 
which has been their home ever since.  Mrs. Belks is survived by 
her husband and two children, Emil and Miss Olga.  She was a 
lady who was highly respected by those who knew her and her 
taking away is a sad blow to the husband and children.  

The funeral will take place from St. Peter's church at 8:30 
o'clock Thursday morning, Rev. L.J. Pescinski officiating, 
with internment in the parish cemetery.
