From Canada
Burtonsville, Alberta
September 26, 1926
It is not very happy news this time that I am sharing with you. We are very far behind with the harvest. It has always rained here. Oats, barley, and green fodder are still in the fields. Wheat is already harvested; but also suffered a lot from the rain. It can be said that about a third of the harvest perished. Today is nice weather for a change. As I read, it rained a lot everywhere. The state of health is very good. Anna Elizabeth Hohnstein, née Fruehauf, recently passed away. She leaves behind her husband, a son, and two daughters - all here in Canada - and a brother in Alt-Norka, Russia, named Karl Fruehauf. We express our heartfelt condolences. With warm greetings to all readers of the Welt-Post, I am yours,
