Carl Julius Lindekugel, a prominent resident of Clark County for the past fifty years was born Oct. 8th, 1854 at Johnson Creek, Jefferson County, Wisconsin.

And as peaceful as the life he lived, thus was that sleep when he took that journey to Eternity, Wednesday morning, Dec. 29, making his age 77 years, 2 months and 21 days. He was stricken with a stroke on Dec. 17th, from which he never regained consciousness.

In early infancy he was baptized, confirmed and has been a faithful member of the local Lutheran Church for the past twenty-eight years.

The funeral services were held January 2nd at 2 o’clock, Rev. Leschensky officiating. The body was laid to rest at the Union Cemetery in Loyal.
