  	DEATH COMES TO FRED JONAS AT MISHICOT Pioneer Resident of the Co. and Father of Judge Jonas Fred Jonas, one of the most widely known and popular farmers in the county, died at the family home on the farm near Mishicot last night. Mr. Jonas had been ill for several months but his conditions did not become critical until about a week ago and while the end was not unexpected it came as a shock to relatives and friends. The funeral will be held from the home Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock, the Rev. Hawkes of Two Rivers officiating at the services and burial will be at the Saxonburg cemetery. Born at the same farm where the death occurred, Mr. Jonas would have been seventy-one at his next birthday, May 4. He received his early education in the schools of the county and became greatly interested in the county educational movement, serving as member of the school board for many years and taking an active part in school affairs. His interest in the schools reflected in the fact that his sons and daughters took up teaching as a profession and one, Miss Esther Jonas, is now a member of the staff at the West Allis school. Father of Chicago Jurist Forty-five years ago Mr. Jonas was married to Miss Augusta Paarman and the couple came to this city to live for a short time. Later they moved to Chicago but did not find the big city to their liking and after spending a short time there returned to the old homestead at Mishicot where they have since resided. Last summer a family reunion was held at which all of the children were present, the occasion being made a sort of community celebration in which hundreds of friends and neighbors took part.
