Mrs. Gluckstadt Dead.
December 23, 1909 Manning Monitor

The friends of Mrs. Christina Gluckstadt were shocked last Saturday when they learned that she had died. Several days before she contracted pneumonia and although everything was done that could be done by relatives or doctors, life could not be prolonged. Her extreme age was against recovery. She was born in Germany October 4, 1837 and was 72 years 2 months and 13 days old at her death. Several years ago her husband died and left her to keep up the house and oversee the raising of the family. Those who know Mrs. Gluckstadt speak of her as a loving wife, devoted mother, and good neighbor. Wednesday Rev. Wendt gave the funeral address at the home after which the sorrowing relatives and friends followed the body to the Iowa Township Cemetery where tender hands lowered it to her last resting place. The many friends of the family and relatives sympathize with them in their hour of affliction.
