Charles Wolf, 78, of Morningside, died from illuminating gas some time
Friday night and the body was not found until Saturday afternoon, according
to officers, says the Sioux City Journal.

Mr. Wolf's body was found by George Gunderson and William Lyman, who live
downstairs at the same address, a property owned by Mr. Wolf, who kept an
upstairs apartment for himself and rented out the downstairs. Mr. Gunderson
and Mr. Lyman had not heard their landlord moving about upstairs and
investigated, finding the corpse.

Mr. Wolf owned the apartment house and a farm near Hinton.

He was born in Lichtenstein, Saxony, Germany, December 28, 1857.
