*********
Meinert Bosma passed away at his home in the village on Sunday morning, 
February 25th, at 10:30 o’clock. He was born October 1st, 1851 at Wolvega, 
Vriesland, Holland and came to New Holstein with his parents in 1872. 
About fifteen years ago he met with an accident, when the horse he was 
driving ran away, and he suffered a fractured hip.  In time the injury 
healed, but he remained a cripple.  At one time he was honored as town 
treasurer and those who remember him speak very highly of his character. 
He is survived by his father, Dirk Bosma, one brother in Holland and one 
sister, Mrs. T. DeBuhn.  The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at 2:00 
o’clock and the remains interred in the New Holstein cemetery, Rev. K. 
Landaberger officiating.
