Death of Isaac Wenrick.

     Isaac Wenrick, a well known German and carpenter of the west end, whose place of residence was on College street, north of the South Bend chilled plow works, died Sunday of hemorrhage of the stomach, after an illness of about ten days.  He was taken down with inflammation of the bowels and in a coughing paroxism broke a blood vessel which produced a small hemorrhage, causing a painful and lingering death.  He was an honest and industrious man, about 38 years of age, and leaves a wife and six children.  He was a member of Robert Blum lodge, No. 252, I. O. O. F., under whose auspices he was buried.
     The funeral was held at the residence Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. E. A. Schell conducting the services.
