Mrs. Pauline Stimm died suddenly of hemorrhage
of the lungs last Monday evening at 5:15 o'clock. She had been working in her garden during the
afternoon gathering vegetables and just previous to her death went to the rear
of her home in West Main Street, to give some instructions to a man who was
splitting wood for her, and became suddenly ill. She called to him to run for a neighboring
lady and when he returned with the lady Mrs. Stimm
was throwing up blood and died in a few moments. Deceased was a
sister of the late John Neumann, who for years conducted a commission store in
West Main Street, and an aunt of Emil Neuman who is
now in the same business. She was a
native of Germany and has resided here for about 30 years. She was 64 years of age and is survived by one
daughter, Miss Theresa Stimm, of this city. Her husband died many years ago. Her death was a great shock to her many
friends. She was a most excellent and
highly esteemed lady.
