Quante was riding in a Lakeland Co-operative egg truck driven by Kennard Erickson, R.1, Valders, at the time of the accident. Erickson, hospitalized at Manitowoc with facial lacerations, and a possible arm fracture, told police he was talking with Quante and failed to see the train at the crossing until it was too late to stop. Dr. Theodore Teitgen, Manitowoc County coroner, said an inquest will be held. The driver's side of the truck, traveling east on County Trunk U through Newton, struck the train. It then was knocked into the ditch north of the road burying Quante under smashed egg crates. The victim started work with the co-operative Wednesday and was riding with Erickson to learn the egg route. Conductor of the north bound freight, C.A. Gratton of Green Bay, stated he was riding in the caboose and did not know of the accident until he saw the truck in the ditch. He then pulled the emergency brake. Thad Black, also of Green Bay, was the engineer. Ervin Quante moved to Valders from DePere a year ago and lived on a farm with his wife, the former Kathleen Frowley. The couple was married in DePere June 13, 1953. They have no children. Survivors are his wife, his parents, and a sister. Funeral services will be held 9:30 a.m. Tuesday at St. Mary's Catholic Church, Clark Mills. The Rev. Father Setko, pastor, will be celebrant of the mass and will officiate at the burial in church cemetery. Friends may call at the Berge Funeral Home, Valders, after 2 p.m. Monday until 9 a.m. Tuesday.

WENZEL RAPPEL Death notice in Der Nord Westen, 8 June 1882: He drowned in the Manitowoc River. ******** Lake Shore Times, June 13, 1882, p 1 col 4 as follows: DROWNED A sad accident happened near Clarks Mills on Monday of last week. While Wenzel Rappel and another man were out boating, the skiff in which they were, suddenly careened. Mr. Rappel started to swim to the shore, and had proceeded part of the way, when he seemed to have changed his mind and tried to return to the boat, to which the other man was clinging. But his strength gave out before he could reach the boat, and he sank. Immediate search for his body was made and it was found in the evening. Mr. Rappel was a well known farmer, whose industry and economy, accumulated considerable of this world's goods. Enough, at least, to ensure a sufficiency to a wife and eight children, who now mourn the loss of a loving husband and father. ******* Lake Shore Times, July 18, 1882, p 4 col 4.
