351 Couple Find Hard Work Key to Long Married Life

Mr. and Mrs. John Eckart, who were married in New Richland, Oct. 27, 1890, observed their 63rd wedding anniversary quietly Tuesday.

Mrs. Eckart, an energetic 81 years old, passed up a bus ride that afternon to walk from downtown Albert Lea to their home at 911 Bridge Ave., after a shopping trip.

She often walks home from services at Salem Lutheran church, she said.

Visitors who came to help them observe the anniversary kept the couple up late Tuesday night, Mrs. Eckart was up early the next morning though, cleaning house, and making plans for a trip to Wisconsin.

She anticipated the trip to Antigo, Wis., with her daughter Friday, would require about 7 hours driving.

"It took me two weeks to make that trip by wagon when I came to Minnesota," her husband recalled.

Eckart, who is 89, did not accompany his wife in the town which was once his home. Because his legs bother him, he can not be as active as Mrs. Eckart, he explained.

Both agree they've worked hard during their lives.

The couple met in the 80's when both were working at the Chris Jenson farm between New Richland and Hartland. jensonn had persuaded Eckart, who had struck out on his own in the logging regiem of Wisconsin at the age of 16, to come with him after relatives wrote Jenson that land in the area was cheap.

Jenson acquired a farm, and Eckart went to work for him. He met his futher wife on that same farm. Ida Bertha Moldenhauer, pretty, curly-haired daughter of a neighboring farmer, was hired to do housework in the Jenson home for $1.50 a week.

"And I did the washing by hand, with only a washboard," she recalls now.

Jenson lost both his hired man and hired girl when the couple were married.

They started out their married life on a rented farm in the area. Included in the deal was the use of eight cows for $10 a year, Eckart recalls.

After a couple of years, the owner told Eckart that he had $200 in the farm himself (it was owned by two mortgages) and suggested that he buy it.

Eckart bought the farm, and in a few years was able to build a house to replace the shack the couple had lived in and a new barn.

Discouraged, at one time about 45 years ago, by a hailstorm that ruined crops, the Eckarts moved to South Dakota, found they didn't like it there, and returned to farm four miles outside Albert Lea.

About 17 years ago they moved to their present home.

The cople have six children, 15 grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. One son, Elmer, died in 1936.

A daughter, Mrs. Albert (Agnes) Dubberstein, lives in Armstrong and another daughter, Mrs. Edward (Alice) Dahlman, lives in New Richland. Their sons are Emil, of Austin, Walter of Bancroft, Erwin at home, and George, who lives on the home farm.

Mrs. Eckart complains that arthritis in her hands prevents her from doing as much work as she would like to do, but she still does her own housework, gets up at 5 0'clock on summer mornings to work in her large garden and does lots of canning.

At one time, when her children were small, physicians in a Rochester hospital, did not expect her to recover from an operation. Four years ago, she was in critical condition following a stroke.

"I believe god sets a time for everyone to go, and my time has not come." she said. "But if there's anything that keeps me alive, I'd say it's just work."

Her husband nodded in agreement.

360 Couple Find Hard Work Key to Long Married Life

Mr. and Mrs. John Eckart, who were married in New Richland, Oct. 27, 1890, observed their 63rd wedding anniversary quietly Tuesday.

Mrs. Eckart, an energetic 81 years old, passed up a bus ride that afternon to walk from downtown Albert Lea to their home at 911 Bridge Ave., after a shopping trip.

She often walks home from services at Salem Lutheran church, she said.

Visitors who came to help them observe the anniversary kept the couple up late Tuesday night, Mrs. Eckart was up early the next morning though, cleaning house, and making plans for a trip to Wisconsin.

She anticipated the trip to Antigo, Wis., with her daughter Friday, would require about 7 hours driving.

"It took me two weeks to make that trip by wagon when I came to Minnesota," her husband recalled.

Eckart, who is 89, did not accompany his wife in the town which was once his home. Because his legs bother him, he can not be as active as Mrs. Eckart, he explained.

Both agree they've worked hard during their lives.

The couple met in the 80's when both were working at the Chris Jenson farm between New Richland and Hartland. jensonn had persuaded Eckart, who had struck out on his own in the logging regiem of Wisconsin at the age of 16, to come with him after relatives wrote Jenson that land in the area was cheap.

Jenson acquired a farm, and Eckart went to work for him. He met his futher wife on that same farm. Ida Bertha Moldenhauer, pretty, curly-haired daughter of a neighboring farmer, was hired to do housework in the Jenson home for $1.50 a week.

"And I did the washing by hand, with only a washboard," she recalls now.

Jenson lost both his hired man and hired girl when the couple were married.

They started out their married life on a rented farm in the area. Included in the deal was the use of eight cows for $10 a year, Eckart recalls.

After a couple of years, the owner told Eckart that he had $200 in the farm himself (it was owned by two mortgages) and suggested that he buy it.

Eckart bought the farm, and in a few years was able to build a house to replace the shack the couple had lived in and a new barn.

Discouraged, at one time about 45 years ago, by a hailstorm that ruined crops, the Eckarts moved to South Dakota, found they didn't like it there, and returned to farm four miles outside Albert Lea.

About 17 years ago they moved to their present home.

The cople have six children, 15 grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. One son, Elmer, died in 1936.

A daughter, Mrs. Albert (Agnes) Dubberstein, lives in Armstrong and another daughter, Mrs. Edward (Alice) Dahlman, lives in New Richland. Their sons are Emil, of Austin, Walter of Bancroft, Erwin at home, and George, who lives on the home farm.

Mrs. Eckart complains that arthritis in her hands prevents her from doing as much work as she would like to do, but she still does her own housework, gets up at 5 0'clock on summer mornings to work in her large garden and does lots of canning.

At one time, when her children were small, physicians in a Rochester hospital, did not expect her to recover from an operation. Four years ago, she was in critical condition following a stroke.

"I believe god sets a time for everyone to go, and my time has not come." she said. "But if there's anything that keeps me alive, I'd say it's just work."

Her husband nodded in agreement.

400 DIES FOR COUNTRY
Three more Door County Boys Fall on Battlefield of France in Recent Fight.

Belong to Fighting Co. F.

Joseph Jindra, Nasewaupee, Gilbert Vetting, Egg Harbor, and Elmer Tweedale of Sevastopol Killed.

The lives of three more of Door county's brave boys have been given to their country in defense of its honor and ideal of a world democracy.

In the mail on Saturday a letter was received from a friend stating that Joseph Jindra had fallen in the second day of the big offensive and died later while being removed to the rear.

No word of the death has been received from official sources so that the letter was a great shock and surprise to the afflicted relatives as there was an air of uncertainty about whether it was really true.

The news of the death of Private Jindra was received in the following letter to his sister:
Somewhere in France, Aug. 15, 1918

Miss Anna Jindra:
Kind Friend:--No doubt you will be quite surprised to hear from me, as I am unknown to you. But I was a very intimate friend of your brother Joseph and one of his last words was to write to his parents and friends at home and them where and how it happened.

You have probably heard by this time that your brother was killed in action about July 19th toward Soissons. He pulled through the first day OK but on the morning of the 19th was severely wounded and after he was taken to the first aid station and was being evacuated to the rear he died. He was buried with military honors in a small town in France, the name of which I am not allowed to mention. He left many friends in the company and regiment, who all regret his death.

I have some letters from his friends and yourself which he left and if you care for them I will forward them to you. I remain,
Your unknown friend.
