OLDEST DUTCH PERSON DIES
The oldest person in the Netherlands has
passed away.

Vries from Havelte died
on Thursday at the age of
111.
She was born on October
2 1902 in Uffelte; for the
past ten years she lived in
senior citizens home De
Molenhof in Havelte. At
her 110 birthday she
received a surprise
telegram from King

then that one of the
secrets of her respectable
age was having a cooked
egg at breakfast.
Egbertje Leutscher-De Vries will be cremated
in Meppel on Tuesday.
