Death of Mrs. Klindt.
Everyone was shocked on Wednesday morning August 10, 1904, to hear of the sudden death of
Mrs. Hans Klindt just south of town, who died very suddenly with inflammation of the bowels, only being sick a very few days.
Anna (Jensen) Klindt was born October 1, 1862, in Germany, and came with her parents to America in 1873 and settled first in Ohio, she came to Clinton County, in 1878, then to Crawford County and then to Manning. She was married to Hans Klindt October 20, 1881, near Maquoketa, Iowa. She leaves a husband and four children Harry, Anna, Elsie, and Emma, also three brothers John at Ponca, Nebraska; Anton, near Manning; and Edward near Maquoketa to mourn her loss.
Mrs. Klindt was a good, kind woman and loved by all who knew her. The funeral will be held at the home next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. William Martens officiating, after which the remains will be laid to rest in the Manning cemetery. The entire community is in deep sympathy with the deceased's relatives in their hour of sorrow.

Mr. and Mrs. J.M. Jensen, of Ponca, Nebraska, arrived last Friday evening and attended
the funeral of Mrs. Hans Klindt, who was buried Saturday morning. There were five
brothers in attendance at the funeral, three brothers and her step-brothers, namely, J.M.
Jensen, Ponca, Neb; Ed Jensen, Maquoketa, Iowa; Albert Jensen, Mitchell SD; Carl
Jensen Maquoketa Iowa and Anton Jensen, of Manning, Iowa. Mr. Jensen reports as
having a fine crop this year and that crops in general in Nebraska are far ahead of Iowa.
I'm occasionally adding the actual scanned image of the obituary I make using my VERY expensive - large commercial scanner,
and/or also other articles about the deceased person that were published in the Manning Monitor.
I want to also comment about people who are taking my obituaries, pictures, and/or other articles about a person/family and posting them on other websites.
You do NOT have permission or the right to do this - you are stealing my historical work.
Buy your own scanning equipment, pay for memberships to other commercial websites,
and spend decades working on your local history like I have - then you'll understand why I'm making these comments!
Thank you for your attention to this matter - Dave Kusel
