Meyer, his son-in-law, at 1:30 Sunday morning, March 16, 1913, aged 87 years, one month and 25 days. On April 21, 1851, he was married to Anna Schroeder and to this union were born two sons and two daughters. In March 1878 he emigrated to America, settling first near Giard, and afterward he made his home with his son-in-law in Clayton Co. For a number of years past his eyesight had so weakened that he was nearly blind, and he ofttimes expressed the wish that the dear Lord, in whom he believed, might take him home. He is survived by his wife, and four children -- Mrs. Wm. Meyer, Postville; Mrs. Henry Klamm, Algona; Wm. Meyer, Giard, and Carl Meyer, Postville -- and their families, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, friends and neighbors, and may God bless them all. The funeral was held from the Lutheran church at two o'clock, Tuesday afternoon, March 18th, Rev. R. Kuehne officiating. Interment in the Postville cemetery.
