Mrs. Wilhelmine Jaenecke, aged 61 years, for 45 years a resident of Houston and one of the oldest inhabitants of the community, having lived in her home at 16 Drennan street, for the past 38 years, died Tuesday afternoon at 2:45 o'clock. Her death was due to a fall at her home several days ago. Arising, according to her custom, at 6 o'clock last Saturday the aged woman fell while dressing and was found on the floor by members of the family who had heard her fall.
