JOHN MACFARLANE DEATH CLAIMS JOHN MC FARLANE(sic), VETERAN NEWSPAPER MAN OF THE CITY AT HOSPITAL TODAY Managing Editor of Daily News, Removed to Hospital Two weeks Ago, Succumbs to illness which He Suffered from for Months-Was Native of this City and 63 Years of Age John MacFarlane, veteran newspaper man, manager of the Citizens Publishing company and managing editor of the Daily News, died at the hospital today, aged 63. Mr. MacFarlane had been a patient at the hospital for two weeks, having suffered a breakdown as result of the extreme heat three weeks ago. For several days his condition had precluded hope of recovery but the announcement of his death today was a shock. Mr. MacFarlane was a native of this city, having been born here May 16, 1853. He was a son of the late George MacFarlane, Sr., and received his early education in the local schools. At an early age he learned the printer's trade, serving his apprenticeship in the 60's. In 1870 Mr. MacFarlane located in Tennessee where he was employed for a year and then returned to Chicago where he worked on the Chicago Tribune and other papers and in 1876 removed to Racine where he was employed on the Racine times as a reporter, later being on the staff of Utley's weekly and during his residence there became editor of the Racine Daily Times and later he had the Racine agency for the Chicago papers. Mr. MacFarlane returned to his native city in May, 1900, to accept a position with C.W. Roberts, then about to establish the Daily News, and he became editor of the paper which appeared the same month, under ownership of the Citizen Publishing company. A short time later Mr. MacFarlane, with his son, George, who was then attending high school at Racine, took over the Citizen company and its two papers, the Daily News and the Weekly Citizen. The company also conducted a job printing establishment. In 1901, George MacFarlane, son of the deceased, came to the city and assumed the duties of city editor of the News, which he has continued ever since. Mr. MacFarlane had planned to retire from active partici- pation in the Citizen company when he was taken with the fatal illness. Up to within a short time of his illness, however, he had given his personal attention to the business. For years, Mr. MacFarlane had been one of the leaders in the republican party of the county, a staunch advocate of its principles and his paper was one of the well known republican newspapers of the state. Although he had never sought political preferment, he was active in the councils of the party and was known throughout the state. Deceased was a member of the Elk's lodge and of the Royal League, affil- iated with the Manitowoc branches and was active in the two organizations. He had for years been a regular attendant at state conventions of the Elks and was widely known in the order in Wisconsin. Mr. MacFarlane was twice married. In 1880 he married Mary Thompson of Racine whose death occurred five years later. In 1886 he was united in marriage to Minnie Abrahamson of the same city, who with one son, George, and a daughter, Jean, survive. One sister, Mrs. Jacob Walton, of Chicago, also survives. Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the late home at 602 Park street.

AUGUSTA MARCH WOMAN DIES 2 WEEKS AFTER SON'S WEDDING Death came without warning last night to Mrs. Augusta March, 62, wife of Emil March, who passed away at 8 o'clock last night at her home, 1319 South Tenth street.

Mrs. March, who maiden name was Augusta Hintz, was born in Germany, Sept. 14, 1861, and came to this country with her parents when she was two years of age, the family locating on a farm near Reedsville. Her marriage to Emil March took place at Reedsville thirty-six years ago, and four years ago they came to Manitowoc where they have since made their home. Besides her husband, Mrs. March is survived by three sons, Charles of Whitelaw, Arnold of Reedsville and Clarence of this city and a sister, Miss Pauline Hintz of Elburn, Ill., and a brother Charles Hintz of Reedsville.

FRED MARESH From Der Nord Westen, 25 May 1899: (A great deal of space in this issue is devoted to the gunshot suicide of County Clerk Fred Maresh on Mon., an event so newsworthy it would be covered in equal or greater detail in the English press.) ********** Maresch Was Insane Manitowoc's County Clerk Made Preparations for His Death Manitowoc, Wis., May 23.- Fred Maresch, county clerk, who yesterday afternoon shot himself in the head and died instantly, was apparently insane. He left his wife at the court house and bade good by to her and his friends. He then hired a rig and drove to his mother-in-law's and said good by to her. From there he drove home and left the horse tied in front of the house. He sent the servant to the office to tell his wife that he was sick. She came home at once only to find his lifeless body stretched on the floor with a bullet hole in the right temple. He had undressed and put on a clean suit of underwear, clean socks and a night robe. A lady who lives downstairs was sitting in a room almost underneath him, but did not hear the shot. No letters were left to explain his actions. A post mortem examination was made and the physicians stated that the brain was diseased and that it was a clear case of insanity. Fred Maresch was 29 years of age and married. He leaves a widow and one child, a boy 5 years old. He was a son of Wenzel Maresch of this city, a retired farmer of means. The deceased came to Manitowoc several years ago. When the Second Wisconsin regiment went to Porto Rico Maresch accompanied them, holding the rank of lieutenant.
