JOHN CRONIN It becomes our painful duty to record the death of one of our best citizens in the prime of life and in the midst of great usefulness. John Cronin died at his residence in Maple Grove, last Friday, Feb. 9th, at the age of 27 years, of consumption, leaving behind his mourning parents loving, now disconsolate, young wife and two small children. John, whom we have known and respected from his boyhood up, learned the printer's trade in he[sic] Pilot office, then was employed for a long time in the Paper Warehouse of Hon. J.A. Noonan, in Milwaukee, and returned about four years ago to this county, where he started a country store in Maple Grove, and had soon established a thriving and profitable business; he was appointed Post Master at Maple Grove and honored with all the public offices he was willing to accept. But that insidious destroyer soon made itself felt by its victim, who, bravely bore and finally resignedly yielded to its deadly influence.

MICHAEL LOGAN ONE MAN WILL LOSE LEG AND ANOTHER MAY LOSE EYE AS RESULT OF INJURIES IN QUARRY BLAST Two men may be maimed for life, if they recover from injuries which they suffered today in an explosion at the Grimms quarry of the Union Lime company, shortly before noon. The injured are: MICHAEL LOGAN, leg broken and bones splintered, back injured, may have been internally hurt. CHAUNCEY DEBAR, head badly cut and body bruised. One eye injured and sight may be lost. The two men were placing a blast at the quarry when in some manner the explosion occurred and they were unable to make their escape. One report is that the men struck a previous blast that had been placed in the ground and being unaware of it, were caught by the explosion. Another report is that the blast was one which the men were placing and that the explosion was premature. The explosion was terrific and the two men were hurled a considerable distance and were picked up unconscious by fellow laborers a short time later. Logan was the most seriously injured, the bones of the leg being splintered and the man suffering from other injuries which it is said may make his recovery doubtful. Dr. Kelley of Cato and Dr. Cary of Reedsville were summoned and hurried to the scene and gave attention to the injured men. Later at 1 o’clock today, the two men were brought to this city and removed to the hospital in the police ambulance. Both men are said to be married and to have been employed by the Union Lime company time. It was said this afternoon that it would be necessary to amputate one of Logan’s legs. The man’s hip was shattered. He is 45 years and unmarried. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Friday, January 12, 1917, Page 1 ********* Charles Logan of Grimms, John Logan and Mrs. D. Grady of Osman were here yesterday, called by the accident to their brother, Michael Logan who is at the hospital here following an explosion at the Grimms quarry. It was thought that Mr. Logan’s leg would have to be amputated but the operation has not been performed. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Saturday, January 13, 1917, Page 3 ********* GRIMMS MAN INJURED IN BLAST AT QUARRY FRIDAY, DIES IN THIS CITY TODAY Michael Logan Fails to Survive Injuries He Suffered at Quarry of Union Lime Company. Was 61 and Unmarried. Debar, 2nd Man Hurt, Will Survive but Will Lose Eye Michael Logan, one of the two men injured in a blast at the quarries of the Union Lime company at Grimms Friday, died at the hospital in the city today, from injuries and the shock of the accident. The body will be taken to Grimms and will be buried Wednesday from St. Patrick’s church at Maple Grove. Mr. Logan had his hip and leg shattered by the explosion which occurred Friday morning while he was at work in the quarry. He was brought to the hospital Friday noon and was not thought to have been fatally injured though physicians said that if the man survived it would be necessary to amputate one leg. His condition, however, made it dangerous to operate and Logan’s condition became worse and he died today. The dead man had been a resident of the county all his life and had been employed at the quarries for years. Several years ago he was injured in a similar accident but escaped death and returned to his work. Mr. Logan was 61 years of age and unmarried. He was well known at Grimms and in that neighborhood. He is survived by three brothers and three sisters, five residing in the county, being Charles of Grimms, John of Osman, Peter at Maple Grove, Mrs. George Carroll of Chicago; Mrs. Dennis Grady, Osman, and Sister James at the hospital in this city. Chauncy Debar, who was also injured in the blast Friday, will recover but he will lose the sight of one eye as result of the injuries he sustained.

Father Casey performed the burial rites of the Catholic church. The boy was a student at Reedsville High school, a member of the ninth grade, studious and well liked by all his schoolmates who regret his early death. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Friday, February 05, 1915, Page 3 ********* MAPLE GROVE Charles Lorigan, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Lorigan, aged about seventeen years, passed to the Great Beyond at 10 o’clock Sunday morning. Charles suffered a severe attack of appendicitis a week ago and under the advice of physicians was taken to Green Bay hospital on Saturday where he died before an operation could be performed. The news of his death was heard with sorrow, and expression of sympathy for the bereaved family were many. The silver cord is loosed, the golden bowl is broken, the dust has returned to the earth as it was, the spirit has returned to the God who gave it. The filial son and brother has finished his course and reached the heavenly goal while yet an infant in the race of life. Only the memory of the dear boy is left, yet how sweet, how uplifting its influence. For, after all, death is but the passing off of the outer body. In the springtime of life, ere the sunshine of hope and joy were extinguished he passed to his reward. He was a student at the Reedsville High school having finished the Eighth grade here last June with high honors and was one who had won a place in the hearts of his teachers and fellow students. The four teachers of the Reedsville high school with the students attended the funeral Wednesday in a body. The many beautiful floral offerings showed the high esteem in which he was held.
