Opferkuch, John (1934? - 6 FEB 1957)
John Opferkuch, about 23, of Hannibal (Taylor Co.), Wis., was accidentally killed about 5 p.m. yesterday afternoon when a log fell off a truck and fractured his skull.
Opferkuch was helping unload pulpwood on a railway siding near the Thorp newspaper office when the accident occurred. He released a tie chain and four or five longs rolled off the truck, one of them striking him. He lived only a few moments.
He is the son of Philip Opferkuch. He was not married. The body was taken to Gilman for funeral arrangements.
There will be no inquest.
