CAPT JOSEPH YUNDT DROPS DEAD WHILE WORKING AT ICE PLANT
While going about his work as usual and preparing for the summer rush of ice business expected by the company with which he was connected, Capt. Joseph Yundt of Delno Ice company dropped dead from heart disease at the plant at 8:30 o'clock Thursday evening. His death is supposed to have been brought on by over-exertion. He was 70 years by a wife and son, Arthur, who lived here.
Captain Yundt had been a resident of Tucson and vicinity for a number of years. He gained his military title during the Civil War, in which he enlisted soon after the outbreak of the rebellion. Participating in some of the most trying battles in the war, he was promoted to the rank of captain of the 146th Indiana, meanwhile gaining a reputation as a fighting man of exceedingly dangerous proclivities in time of battle. After the close of the rebellion, he engaged from time to time in a variety of business enterprises, both in the east and after moving to Tucson.
For some years he and his family had been living on a homestead east of the city, but recently sold it and moved into the city. Captain Yundt then became associated with the ice company in making arrangements for the distribution of ice throughout the city during the summer months. He had been working harder than usual of late, and was at the plant at work when suddenly stricken by heart failure, he dropped dead.
The funeral will be held at 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon from the parlors of the Parker-Undertaking company.
