November 24, 1938

Prince Johann-Georg of Saxony died "late last night" while visiting his brother-in-law, Duke Albrecht of Würrtemberg. He was 69-years-old, and had been ill with "an attack of the grippe."
He was the younger brother of the late King Friedrich August III of Saxony.
During the World War, Prince Johann-Georg had been active with the Red Cross in effecting the release and transfer of prisoners. He "was also a student of history and early Christianity," and was the author of several books.
In 1894, he was married to Duchess Marie-Isabelle of Württemberg. She died in 1904, and two years later, he married Princess Maria Immaculata of Bourbon-Two Sicilies.
The funeral will be held in Dresden.
