Hold Service For Heier
WASHTUCNA - The funeral of Emanuel P. Heier, 37, Union Pacific Railroad watchman, whose crushed and broken body was picked up on the railroad tracks at Hooper Junction, Saturday morning, was held on Tuesday afternoon at 3 p.m. at the Community church, the Rev. A. K. Walborn officiating.
Burial was in the local cemetery.
At first it was thought that he had evidently fallen asleep on the track and been run over, but the absence of blood seemed to prove that death had resulted from natural causes and the body had been dismembered later.
Mr. Heier was born in Rumania, April 11, 1904. He is survived by his wife, Lydia, and four children, Sadie Jean, Edna Eleana, Russell and Donald. His father, four brothers, John, Jake, Sam and Emil, and four sisters, Esther, Mary, Leona and Mrs. Sam Suko, all resding in North Dakota also survive him. Mrs. Nitschke of Washtucna is a sister-in-law.
