Less than a year ago, April 11, 1925, he returned to his old home town to claim Miss Viola Handl, daughter of Mrs. Mary Handl for his bride and it was while here with her for a visit that he was taken ill. The trip was made by motor and heavy snows were encountered. The couple arrived before Christmas and started on the return trip last Saturday but were again caught in the drifts. Taken ill at Sheboygan Dr. Mueller was removed to the hotel where his condition became such it was considered unwise to move him and death followed last night.
