DEATH OF EDWIN HEMMA
Last week we neglected to chronicle the death of Edwin Hemma, aged 68, which took place at the residence of a relative in this place, the burial following a day or two later. Mr. Hemma was a second cousin to H. H. and Edwin Haska, and was born in Germany 68 years ago. He was a great traveler, and during his life visited nearly every civilized country in the world, besides touring this country quite extensively. His fatal sickness lasted but a few days, the immediate cause of death being heart failure. Herman Hemma of Wisner, a brother of the deceased, was present and attended to his last wants. - Arlington Herald.
