Obituary

"Otto and Caroline Blonk. During the past week two deaths occurred, from diphtheria, in the family of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Blonk, who live north of the city. On Friday evening, their eldest child Otto, a boy aged about seven years, died after a brief illness. This death was followed by that of their daughter Caroline, aged five years and seven days. The bereavement is peculiarly sad. The parents are industrious, and have been working hard to support themselves and children. The father has been employed for the past year by J. S. Stover. Iowa County Democrat, Nov. 29, 1889"
