After a lingering illness of several years duration, Mrs. Aug. Schell died last Sunday having reached the age of 82 years and by her death a life of activity and usefulness is con eluded. She was one of the earliest settlers,one who left a comfortable nome in the city, coming to a country which at that time was far beyond the conditions that go to make life comfortable. When her husband, prompted by the spirit of indepen dence that was so characteristic of the people of the forties and fifties of the past century, left the city to work out for himself and family an ex istence in a country where there was plenty of elbow room and which would warrant for himself and chil dren and independent liviihood in days to come, Mrs. Schell willingly took upon herself the burdens, de nials and duties of a pioneer woman sharing with her husband for "better or worse". And it is to this type of women that posterity owes so much and whese memory should be per petuated and their noble traits im mitated. Deceased was born Oct. 16 1829 in Rothweil on the Neckar, Wuertem berg, Germany. In 1849 she came to this country with her mother and Cincinnanti became their first home Four years later she was married in that city to Aug. Schell. Here she lived three years up to 1856 when the Schell family with a number of other Germans that they left their home in that city and cama to New Ulm to lne in this, at that time, unci vilized and wild country. Mr. Schell worked in the mill for some time and in 18G1 started the brewery. Her husband died in 1891 and since that time up to his death the business was carried on by her son, the late Otto Schell. Of the six children that were born to Mr. and Mrs. Schell four are still living who are: Mrs. Geo. Schneider, Mrs. Geo. Marti of this city Mrs. Wm. Yoerg of Winthrop and Adolph Schell of Portland, Ore. Sbe is also survived by one brother, Edw. Herman, nine teen grandchildren and nine great grandchildren. About two years ago Mrs. Schell suffred a stroke and since that time has been ailing. The funeral will be held Wednesday from the old family residence. Order to S Present Claims Within Three Months.
