After completing the grade work in the Washington school he graduated from the Woodward high school in May of this year, and was a freshman at the Dixie junior college at the time of his death. Injured on the left knee when he fell during a class party on the west black ridge two weeks before his death, he continued to complain of the pain in his leg but there was no outward evidence evi-dence otherwise of the possible seriousness of the injury. A second fall while he was out deer hunting hunt-ing developed the condition rapidly rapid-ly and he took to his bed on Monday after returning from the hunt. It was thought at the time that he had influenza. On Thursday evening his condition con-dition became serious and Dr. A. W. McGregor was called. He pronounced the case septicimia. Surviving besides his parents are two brothers, Howard and Ashby Schmutz, and three sisters, Virginia, a twin of the deceased, Hilma and Gertrude, all of Mid-dleton. |
