Funeral services of Samuel Slagel held yesterday
Passed away Monday evening at 6 o'clock at his home on East Walnut Street.
Samuel Slagel, prominent farmer of this community for many years, passed away Monday evening at six o'clock at his home at 407 East Walnut Street, death being due to the infirmities of advanced age.
He was born November 30, 1849, in Wisconsin and grew to young manhood there. In the early seventies he came to this community, and on November 28, 1875, in this city he was united in marriage to Miss Mary Demler.
Mr. Slagel was engaged in farming most of his life and resided on his farm, about five miles southeast of this city, for many years.
Retiring from the farm in 1908, he and Mrs. Slagel moved to the home in this city where he had since resided.
He leaves surviving one daughter, Mrs. Paul Hoffman, and one son, Daniel, both residents of this community. One son, Samuel, died at the age of four years, and another son, Joseph, passed away a number of years ago in New Mexico. Surviving are two sisters, Mrs. Sophia Rapp, of Evanston, and Mrs. Albert Reiman, of Oakville, Iowa. Mrs. Slagel died about ten years ago.
Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon at one o'clock at the Christian Apostolic Church on East Elm Street, of which he was a member. Interment was in Graceland Cemetery.
Out-of-town relatives who were here yesterday to attend the funeral include: Mr. and Mrs. Al Himelich, of Francesville, Inc.; Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Mueller and J.D. Swing, of La Crosse Ind.; Joe Swing, of Hoopston; Mrs. Sam Getz, of Tremont; Mrs. Lena Schaab, of Normal, and friends from Cissna Park, Remington Ind., Peoria, Morton, Elgin, Tremont, and Sabetha Kan.
