Schlinsog, August Jr. (13 Feb 1876 - 10 Feb 1924)

August Schlinsog, Jr., died at his home in the town of Grant, Clark County, Wis. at one o'clock Sunday morning after years of patient suffering from diabetes.

Mr. Schlinsog would have been 48 years of age had he lived until Wednesday, the day of his funeral. He was born in Grant, a son of August and Paulina Schlinsog and on the farm where he died and which has always been his home. He was married on Nov. 14, 1911 to Margaret Schlinsog, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Schlinsog. She, with their two children, Wilbert aged 9 and Emil aged 6 years, survive him, as do his aged parents, Mr. and Mrs. August Schlinsog Sr., now of Chili, Clark county, Wis.

The funeral was held from the home and Rev. Reiff's church on Wednesday afternoon, Rev. Reiff officiating, and burial was made in the church cemetery. The pallbearers were Carl Braatz, Paul and Robert Garbisch, Emil Prange, Ervin Grassman and Paul Roder.

Deceased was a good Christian citizen, a well beloved son, brother, husband and father, and a kind friend and neighbor, whose long illness and short life are grievously lamented by his relatives and a large circle of admiring friends.
