MISS THERESA NAGEL DIED IN MITCHELL

Michael Nagel Called Home by Her Illness and She Died Before His Arrival There. Friends of Michael Nagel and his family will regret to learn* that Miss Theresa Nagel, 24 years of age, died in a hospital in Mitchell, S. Dak., either Tuesday night or this Wednesday morning. Her father, Michael Nagel, arrived here Monday night, in company with other former Jasper county citizens, having iome to Chicago with stock It was his first visit here since he moved to that state five years ago and he had planned to visit his brothers, Adam and Joseph, and other relatives until next Monday. Tuesday, however, he received a message telling him to come home at once and he left on the 3:15 train that afternoon. This morning a message came telling of the death in a hospital in Mitchell of his daughter, Miss Theresa. She was taking the nurses’ training course in the hospital and would have graduated in May of this year. For the past two years she had suffered some with appendicitis and finally it was determined that an operation was necessary and it was performed last Friday. Apparently it was successful and when her father left there for Chicago all indicated that she going to make proper recovery. The message calling him back and later the death message was a great shock to the relatives and friends in this county. The funeral is to be held at Mitchell Friday and John and Loretta Nagel, son and daughter of Joseph Nagel and cousins of the deceased, have left here to attend it.
