 FREDERICK HUBEL One of the pioneers of the county departed this life, Tuesday, when the soul of Frederick Hubel went back to Him who created it. As he had met life's duties unflinchingly, so also he passed strengthened by faith, into the realms of eternity.
 He was born in the county of Pesek, Bohemia, 69 years ago and came with his parents, Vencil Hubel and wife, to America in 1852. They settled first in Canada, moving thence to Iowa City, and coming to Tama county in the late 50's. Frederick assisted his parents on the homestead and grew to strong, vigorous manhood. He served as a Union soldier for three years during the Civil War.
 He was united in the sacrament of matrimony with Miss Marie Benesh who, one year ago, preceded him into the life eternal. Seven children blessed the union, Frederick, whose address is unknown, Mrs. Lloyd Thompson, Mrs. Fred Kline, Mrs. Louis Stransky, Peter, Joseph and Agnes, all of Tama county. All but the oldest son were present at the funeral. A brother, W. A. Hubel, of Rolfe, Iowa, and a sister, Mrs. Anna Drahos, of Cedar Rapids, and a nephew, Fred Hubel of Ft. Dodge were also present at the services.
 It is said of the deceased that all men were his neighbors. He was industrious, honest and christian. His death is mourned by all that knew him.
 The funeral services will be held tomorrow in Petranek church. Rev. Father Gregor will celebrate the requiem mass. The burial will take place in Petranek cemetery. [Now called St. Mary's Cemetery]
