MRS. SCHLEKAU BURIED 

Funeral Held Here Sunday - 

Interment at St. Peter, Minn., on Monday 

Sunday afternoon at the German Evangelical Lutheran church of St. Paul was held the funeral of Mrs. W. Schlekau, whose death came so unexpectedly Saturday morning. Rev. J. Graeber conducted the services. 

The lady had resided in Aberdeen but a few months but during that time she had made many warm friends who were shocked to hear of her sudden death. Sunday the remains were taken over the Northwestern to the old home at St. Peter, Minn., where internment was to take place yesterday. Two sons, W. and Louis Schlekau, and a daughter, Mrs. Engel, accompanied the remains on the last journey.
