The daughters are Mrs. William Fritz, of Carroll, Mrs. William Sievers, of Arcadia, and Miss Maude Fritz, at home.

The family moved from Ohio in 1875, and settled in Pleasant Valley township of this county, where they made their home for about twenty-five years, the old homestead being four and one-half miles southeast of Carroll. Fourteen years ago he retired from farming and moved to Carroll where he has since resided.

Mr. Fritz was an industrious man and a good citizen who had the respect of the community in which he lived. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon at the home conducted by Rev. S.G. Lewis and interment was made in Carroll cemetery. Samuel Fritz, of Tiffin, Ohio, and William Fritz of Ossawatamie, Kans., were in attendance at the funeral.
