He was born in Milwaukee and som sixteen years ago moved with his parents to a farm near Kiel, Manitowoc Co., Wis., and eight years ago came to Thorp, where he has since resided. Three years since he has united in marriage with Lena, daughter of George Banderob, who, with one son are left to mourn the untimely death of a loving husband and father. His age was 27 years. Besides a wife and child he leaves to mourn him his parents and several brothers and sisters. His funeral occurs today, Rev. F.
