JAMES ALLEN

From the Manitowoc Tribune- we learn that the body of James Allen, who 
was drown at Manitowoc Rapids on the 4th, was recovered on the 8th.
Daily State Journal, Madison, Wisconsin, Thursday, July 14, 1859  Page 1
*********
A Heart Rending Calamity.-
We were never called upon to record such a sad and melancholy accident 
as the death, by drowning, of Mr. James Allen, of Manitowoc Rapids-one 
of the most estimable and respected citizens of our county. He was in 
the village on the Fourth, enjoying the society of his friends, and 
started for home about 5 o'clock, P.M. Not arriving to his family in 
season, fears were entertained, and search was made next day. His hat 
was found in the river near the Rapids, which fact confirmed the worst 
fears of his friends. Search was continued until Thursday morning, when 
his cold and lifeless body was found beneath the waters. It is supposed 
that in crossing the bridge, at the Rapids, he missed his footing and 
fell in the angry waters, never to rise again.
He was a very intelligent man, and possessed the confidence and esteem 
of all his neighbors-being, at the time of his death, Chairman of the 
Board of Supervisors. A wife and seven children are left to mourn his 
sudden and unexpected death. May a kind Providence comfort and protect 
them.
The Manitowoc Pilot, Tuesday, June 14, 1859 P.3

Resolved, That we here certify our sincere respect for his estimable 
qualities as a citizen, husband and father.
Resolved, That we tender our heartfelt sympathy to his bereaved family

EUGENE O.G. ALTER (VON ALTER)

From the Lakeshore Times, July 18, 1882:
 
At Rest
Died: July 15, 1882, Eugen Alter, aged 50 years, 3 months and six days.
Mr. Alter was born in Coblenz, Germany, April 9, 1832. In his veins there 
flowed the blood of two of Germany's noble families. His father was a scion 
of the ancient and honorable house of Von Alter, while his mother, nee 
Von Kutzleben, could trace her lineage back into the misty times of the age 
of chivalry. Born under such fortuitous circumstances, he enjoyed the best 
of educational facilities. A few years after the death of his father, which 
occurred in 1847, he emigrated, with his mother and sister to America, which 
to him, was the land where the true form of free government was realized. 
After a few month's stay in Buffalo, he came, together with the aforementioned, 
to Manitowoc, in May, 1850. Thus it will be seen that he was one of our oldest 
settlers. With the exception of a few months, spent as a clerk in Milwaukee, 
he has lived here ever since. He has been engaged in various enterprises and 
business, and during the past seven or eight years has been in charge of the 
Clothing Department of J. Schuette and Bros.
About four months ago, he was seized with an attack of inflammation of the 
bowels, and ever since his health has failed. He was subject to numerous spells 
of sickness during that time, yet from each one he rallied. But the last one 
was fatal. Exactly four months ago he became seriously sick, and during all 
those weary weeks, he suffered most excruciating pain. The scientific skill of 
the physician could give but temporary relief. Gradually the robust form wasted 
away; the hand of science was not strong enough to keep the dread destroyer 
distant; the grief of wife and sons was met with no mercy. He died, and perhaps 
death was merciful in relieving his terrible sufferings, which he bore with 
manly fortitude, and his unselfish, loving nature was never shown to better 
advantage than during those dreary days of sickness. No patient ever caused 
less trouble to those nursing him, than he. It was touching to see how anxious 
he was that none of his family should suffer inconvenience on account of him. 
Indeed, it is an inscrutable providence that allows rascality to thrive and 
enjoy health, while it dooms such a noble nature to weeks and months of suffering, 
which only ends in death.
A wife and three sons, as well as a large number of relatives, mourn this loss. 
Upon the sanctity of the grief of the family let no one intrude. No one knows 
better of the terrible sufferings the deceased underwent, than she, who, day and 
night, sat at his bedside and ministered to his every want with loving hands, and 
as there was no other cure than death, her boundless love for the deceased will 
make her resigned to that fate. Let the sons, who are just on the verge of manhood, 
ever keep sacred the memory and emulate the virtues of him, who has gone before 
them "to the land of the hereafter."  He reared them with a firm and loving hand, 
they were his pride, his comfort, his everything.
**********
The funeral of Mr. Alter occurs this afternoon at three o'clock. He will be 
buried with Masonic ceremonies, Bro. J.M. Craig delivering the oration. The 
deceased was an enthusiastic admirer of the craft and his death is a severe 
loss to the order in this vicinity.
**********
From the Lakeshore Times,  July 25, 1882:
 
                       In Memoriam.
At a regular communication of Manitowoc Lodge No. 65 F. & A. M., held Wednesday, 
July 19, 1882, the following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, It has pleased our all-wise Supreme Master to call from labor unto rest, 
our worth Brother and fellow craftsman, Eugene Alter, and
Whereas, We are thus separated in the body, from one whose departure creates a 
sad vacancy in our councils, and in our ranks, therefore be it
Resolved, That this lodge in parting with our worthy brother, feels called upon 
to express its sentiments of respect due him as a man and a mason; that our heartfelt 
sympathies go out to his bereaved family, to whom his qualities of heart, and 
generous affections endcared(sic) him in a love, that is lasting beyond the confines 
of the grave.
Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the records of the Lodge and 
published in the papers of the city.

GUSTAV E. ALTER

HEART ATTACK TAKES LIFE OF GUSTAV ALTER
Treasurer of Schuette Store For 25 Years Dies At Home Early Today
Gustav E. Alter, 72, (photo) treasurer of Schuette Bros. Co. department store, 
and identified with the mecantile institution for 59 years, died suddently at 
the home, 627 North Water street, early today.
Mr. Alter was taken ill a week ago but his condition was not considered serious. 
He was stricken with a heart attack Sunday evening and died 12 hours later.
Funeral Wednesday
Funeral services will be held Wednesday at 2 p.m. from the Pfeffer funeral home, 
under Masonic auspices. Interment will be in Evergreen cemetery.
The deceased was born in this city in 1863, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Alter. 
His father operated one of the early day inns in Manitowoc, at the corner of 
Eight and Commercial streets. Early in life Mr. Alter developed a desire to enter
business. At the age of 13 he left grade school to take a position in the Schuette 
store operated by his uncle, John Schuette.
After doing clerical work for a number of years Mr. Alter was assigned to the dry 
goods department of the store. Later he assumed charge of the piece goods, and the 
ready-to-wear in addition to his other duties.
When the Schuette Bros. Company was incorporated in 1901 Mr. Alter was one of the 
incorporators. In the election of officers he was chosen treasurer, a positon he 
has since held.
In the nearly 60-year span that the deceased was identified with the Schuette Bros. 
Company, he saw the store grow from a small frame structure on South Eighth street 
to one of the largest department stores in northeastern Wisconsin. His duties as a 
store executive precluded his participation in Manitowoc's public life although he 
was often identified with civic projects calling for supprot and encouragement of 
business interest of the city.
Widow Survives
Fraternally Mr. Alter was a member of the Masonic order, the Knights of Pythias and 
the Elks lodge. He was also one of the organizers and first officers of the Hey-Day 
club, a social organization formed here in 1888, which maintained club rooms on the 
third floor of the old Savings bank building.
Mr. Alter was married Dec. 30, 1890 to Miss Hattie Guttmann of this city.

Tenth street, at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, aged eighty years. The

Mrs. Alter came to Wisconsin with her parents in 1848 and a year later,

Schuette, whose death occurred in Decmeber, and of Mrs. Bloquelle, who 
passed away two years ago.
Married in 1858 to Eugene Alter, who preceded her in death in 1882, Mrs. 
Alter was the mother of three sons, Otto, Oscar and Gustav, all of this 
city, and surviving her. Two brothers, George and August Schuette also 
survive and there are six grancchildren and two great grandchildren.
A woman of retiring disposition, Mrs. Alter devoted her life to her home 
and family, happy in her home and children and her death was as calm and 
peaceful as had been her long life.

CITY ORDERS A PROBE INTO DEAD WOMAN’S AFFAIRS
To Ask Administrator in Case of Barbara Underle, Found Dead. 
Woman Said to Have Had Money
To the end that the city may be reimbursed for aid given her and for 
funeral expenses, if it develops that there is any funds, the council 
last night directed the poor committee to ask an administrator in the 
death of Barbara Underle, an aged woman found dead in her room at 
Seventh and York Streets several weeks ago. 
The city proposes to have an investigation into the case. Mrs. Underle 
lived alone in an upstairs room of a house occupied by another aged 
woman. After her death, a son at Milwaukee who came here for the burial, 
claimed that his mother has a sum of money, reported to be $1,000 sewed 
in her petticoat but no trace of the money was found. It was said the 
house had been ransacked. 
While city officials accept the story of the dead woman having had money 
with a grain of salt, they believe that an investigation should be made 
and to this end Chr. Schenian of the Poor committee advised that an 
administrator be asked for in an effort to locate money or property of 
the woman if any existed. It was said the cost would be nominal and the 
council voted to authorize such action.

WILLIAM C. ANDERSON

RIVER CLAIMS ITS FIRST VICTIM OF YEAR IN PERSON OF 8 YEAR OLD BOY TODAY
Willie Anderson, Son of Andrew Anderson, N. Tenth Street, 
Falls from Yacht and is Drowned Near Riverview Park at Noon. 
Body is Recovered 
The river claimed its first victim of the season today, little Willie 
Anderson, aged 8, losing his life near Riverview park, by drowning when 
he fell from the Schuette yacht, which was moored in river and which the 
Anderson lad with others had boarded. The body was recovered after an 
hour’s search and dragging of the river. 
The unfortunate boy is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Anderson, residing 
on North Tenth street. The child had been at the Hansen paint shop on 
Buffalo street, where his father is employed, fifteen minutes before the 
fatal accident and had left there to return home. He stopped at the river 
where a number of boys were playing and joined them. While attempting to 
walk about the outside railing of the yacht, on a narrow ledge, the 
Anderson boy lost his balance and was plunged into the river. Frightened 
by the accident other boys in the party hurried for assistance but when 
rescuers reached the scene no trace of the missing boy could be found. 
There is a strong current in the river near where the boy fell in, and it 
was feared that the body might be carried down river before it could be 
recovered. Capt. Carle of the police department assisted by Capt. Thomas 
Olson secured a boat and dragged the river for the body and after nearly 
an hour of searching, the dead body was found about 70 feet from the spot 
where playmates of the boy said he had fallen in. When first reports were 
received it was said that the identity of the boy was not known but later 
playmates said he was Willie Anderson. The news of the tragedy was a 
terrible blow to parents of the child and Mrs. Anderson is under care of 
physicians. The little boy was taken to the undertaking rooms of William 
Frazier and later will be removed to the stricken home. The accident is 
the first of the season on the river which annually for several years has 
claimed one or more lives near where the Anderson boy lost his life.

RICHARD ARNDT

LOCAL BOY DECORATED BY FRANCE
CAPT. ARNDT OF CO. E GIVEN HIGH HONOR
Bravery as Sergeant of Old Co. H at Juvigny is Recognized
The Criox de Guerre, the highest military honor of France, has been 
bestowed upon Capt. Richard Arndt, commander of Company E., Wisconsin 
National Guard of this city, in recognition of distinguished service 
in the World War. The official certificate of the decoration was 
received by Capt. Arndt this week.
Recommendation for the decoration of the Manitowoc soldier was made 
by Gen. Petain, commander in chief of the army of the East for France 
in the world war and the certificate a large parchment bearing seal 
of the French Republican notes the recommendation made from general 
quarters by Gen. Petain.
Won at Juvigny
Capt. Arndt, who was a sergeant with old Company H when the local command 
entered the war, won the Criox de Guerre for distinguished service at the 
battle of Juvigny when he led a command of cannon of 31 milometers to the 
first line trenches of the enemy and destroyed the nests of the snipers 
making it possible for the infantry forces to proceed against the enemy 
with and advance.
The battle of Juvigny was not the only one in which Sergt. Arndt led these 
attacks and on one occasion of his command but three men were left when the 
work against the snipers was completed and the way cleared for the advance 
of the allied forces against the front, but at Juvigny the service was 
recognized in particular.
"The official notice of the decoration reads:
"Sergt. Richard Arndt for acts of bravery in conducting his cannon of 31 
milometers before the first line trenches and succeeding in destroying all 
the nests of snipers, thus permitting the advance of the infantry. PETAIN"
Is Employe of city
Capt. Arndt is modest and declines to discuss the decoration or the service 
for which he was bestowed preferring, he declared to forget the horrors of 
war and give thought to his work as an employe of the city of Manitowoc and 
the interest of Company E, the local guard unit, of which he has just been 
made the head. He confesses that he is pleased to have the decoration and a 
host of friends are happy with him.
For two years Capt. Arndt has been employed in the utility offices at the 
city hall as assistant to Manager Walter Staeffl?l and his service for the 
city is of the same high character as that he performed for his county as 
a soldier, say officials.

OLIVER ASLACKSON

From Der Nord Westen, 18 Aug. 1904: 
A terrible accident occurred yesterday afternoon at the intersection 
of State and 8th Streets. Elderly Oliver Aslakson was crossing the 
street but because of his age had lost his hearing and so was unable 
to discern the approaching streetcar. The motorman was unable to see 
the old man until it was too late because the car was coming around 
the corner. Therefore, Aslakson was hit head-on by the fast moving 
streetcar. Naturally the old man was knocked down and dragged some 
distance before the car could be stopped. It is reported that his 
chest was crushed, his head badly injured and both legs broken. Death 
must have occurred in the blink of an eye. A coroner’s inquest will be 
held today to determine the degree of the motorman’s responsibility.
*********
From Der Nord Westen, 25 Aug. 1904:
The coroner’s jury, which was considering last week’s accident in which 
Oliver Aslaksen lost his life, decided that the streetcar company was 
not responsible; however, the so-called fenders on the streetcar were 
not aligned as they should have been.

tracks on Reed Street and was struck by a passenger engine and thrown into the 
freight engine standing on the other track breaking almost every bone in his body. 
He died instantly. The deceased was 23 and his parents still live in Clarks Mills. 
The body was sent there for burial.
[Note: He was buried in Evergreen 3/9/1907. His burial is drawn smaller than normal,

Walter Aumann, employed at the Aluminum Goods Mfg. company plant, had 
the misfortune to severely injure an eye a few days ago. A specialist, 
called from Milwaukee, found it necessary to immediately remove the eye 
to prevent the injury from affecting the other eye. A piece of a file 
entered the eye several days ago puncturing the retina.
