In 1919 he sold his farm, spending the following year in Cloverdale, Oregon, returning to Wisconsin in 1921, and making his home in Neillsville, Wis.

One child preceded him in death. Besides his immediate family, he is also survived by seven grandchildren; and there are three brothers and three sisters all living in Switzerland.

It was the privilege of Mr. and Mrs. Moser to celebrate their golden wedding anniversary on Feb. 4th, last.

Funeral services were held at the Reformed church in Humbird, on Sunday afternoon, Dec 18th , the pastor, Rev. V. D. Weidler preaching the burial sermon. Interment was in Mentor Cemetery.
