Mrs. Peter J. Freund, 68 years old, died at the Woodstock hospital at 4 o'clock Sunday morning, following an operation which she underwent on the preceding Thursday.

She had attended the picnic at Volo on the preceding day, where she appeared in fine spirits and good health and apparently not worried about the outcome of her approaching trip to the hospital. She left home early Monday morning for St. Anthony's hospital, where she underwent a minor operation and her condition seemed normal as she came out from under the anesthetic, but she! died about 10:30 o'clock Monday morning, death being caused from ether idiosyncrasy. Relatives were shocked at the unexpected message froiri the hospital and were stricken with grief at the untimely death of their loved one. Cora E. Schaid, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Schaid of McHenry, was born in Chicago on January 6, 1902, and came to Volo with her parents when years old. Since then lived in this vicinity and received her education at St. Peter's school at Volo.

For the third time inside of a year, the Fanners Mill at West McHenry was broken into Sunday afternoon and a radio and electric fan were stolen. The robbery occurred some time between noon and 7:30 Sunday afternoon for the manager, John Bolger, was at the place at noon when everything was as usual and the depredation was discovered by Watchman Peter Wirfs at 7:80 p. m. The office was strewn with papers, a cabinet was broken into and drawers and files were upset, indicating that the robbers were searching for money. Entrance to the building was gained through a basement window, the bandits coming up in the elevator to the office. Sheriff Edinger was called and took finger prints and it will probably not be long before an arrest is made as the manager and authorities have a pretty good idea as to who did the work. Although figures released this we^k show a drop in the, personal property valuations in the county there are numerous adjustments to be made yet which will no doubt even lower the valuation still further. Board of review members say a 30 per cent drop will mark the taxes collectable in 1933. This slash will greatly reduce taxes next year. The survey of the 1932 reassessment of personal property Just completed shows a total valuation of property in the entire county of $4,313,592 as against $6,132,848. This is a drop of $1,819,256. A total of 7,762 horses were assessed $267,160. The book# disclose two airplanes Valued at $300.
