Mrs. Louisa Paulina (RISSER) BOCK


Dr. and Mrs. Schroeder, their daughter Grayce and the Misses Rosa and Etta Risser attended the funeral of their aunt, Mrs. Bock at Smithton Saturday. Mrs. Bock, who was the wife of Dr. Bock, died as a result of burns received when her clothes caught fire. Due to her advanced age she was unable to help herself and it was only when the neighbors saw the flames that she was rescued. Her injuries however proved fatal. Mrs. Bock was a sister of the late Dr. Risser and several of our people were acquainted with her.
