found) Fred Hopp died at his home in North Judson Tuesday just before
midnight of cancer of the stomach, from which he has suffered for the past
year, says this week's News of that town. He was nearly 71 years of age, and
leaves a wife, seven daughters and two sons. He was a resident of Wayne
township for about eight years and has lived in North Judson for the past
five or six years, coming here from Pulaski County, where they lived for
over thirty years. The funeral will likely be here Friday.

The death of Fred Cramer, which occurred Monday fornoon at the home of his
mother, Mrs. Samuel Cramer, three miles north of Winamac, came as a great
surprise to most people. Many knew that he was fighting a siege of typhoid
fever, but few knew that he was so bad. In preparation for removeal to
Okalahoma, as mentioned in the Democrat, Fred and his brother Charley both
made public sales, on Jan. 28 and Feb. 5, respectively, Fred and wife were
at his mother's home awaiting the time for the two families
to leave. He had been complaining for a month or so of not feeling well, but
was not taken really sick until Feb. 12. He grew steadily worse, and the end
came sixteen days thereafter. George F. Cramer was born June 13, 1881, near
the farm on which he died. His age at death being 28 years, 8 months and 15
days. On Dec. 31, 1895, he was married to Miss Ona Roberts. Two children
came to them, but only the youngest is living a little son about two years
of age. Besides a wife and son he is mourned by mother, four sisters and two
brothers, and a large circle of friends. Fred was recognized as a hard
worker and a good straight young man, and his death appears to be sadly
untimely. The funeral was today, from the M.E. Church, services by Rev.
Warriner and interment on the hill.* *note, not a typo. This obit is for
Fred Cramer but the writer calls him "George" in the last stanza.
