Frederick W. Feige
Dies Suddenly At His Home Last Evening

Frederick W. Feige, father-in-law of Jacob Gimlich and a well known German citizen, died suddenly last night at his home on John street. Mr. Feige has been enjoying good health, and yesterday morning went out to do some work on Gimlich & White's farm. He was taken sick about 10 o'clock and became so bad that he was taken home. Medical aid was summoned, and the physicians decided that Mr. Feige was suffering from bilious cholera. He grew worse during the day, and died at 11 o'clock last evening.

Mr. Feige was an old and well known citizen. For many years he conducted a general store at Taconic, and later ran a large farm on the west shore of Onota lake. Some three years ago he sold the farm to W. D. Walker, and since then has engaged in no regular business. He was 68 years of age and leaves a wife, two sons and three daughters. Mrs. Augusta Timmerman, Mrs. Ellen Shorey, Mrs. Jacob Gimlich, and Henry and George Feige. The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon at 9 o'clock from the home of Jacob Gimlich.
