ALTMAN, PAUL 1855 - March 1876 Crushed by a Falling Tree - Death of Paul Altman Paul Altman, aged 20 years, 6 months and one day, was instantly killed by a falling tree last Friday forenoon about 10 o'clock. He was an employee of Henry Bruemmer and Co., and had been in their employ but a short time. Last Friday morning, Mr. Bruemmer, together with his son and Mr. Altman went into the woods to do some chopping. Mr. Bruemmer and deceased felled a tree. The tree, in falling, struck a dry maple, which caused it to fall in a few moments afterwards. After they fell the tree, Mr. B. and Mrs. A., proceeded to trim it. While doing so the dry maple to which I alluded, fell upon him, breaking his back and crushing him badly about the heart. Mr. Bruemmer saw the tree fall but too late to give warning. He called Paul, but receiving no answer, he went to help him up and he expired in his arms. Mr. B's boy was also stunned by the shock as he was standing only three or four feet from Altman. He seemed to know his time had come, as he told Miss Bruemmer, in the previous evening, that he would not live long and asked him if she would cry if he would die. He took her up in his arms, kissed her and said, "Good bye Emelia, I don't think you will see me alive any more." Mr. A. formerly lived in Mishicott, where his only brother resides. Everyone who had the pleasure of his acquaintance speaks very highly of him, as being a most amiable and respectable young man. The relatives of the deceased have the sympathies of the entire community. His remains were interred in the Defaut Cemetery. -- Enterprise Manitowoc Tribune - Thurs., Mar. 9, 1876

CAMPION, FRANCIS FIND SWIMMERS BODY The body of Francis Campion, 22, year old Milwaukee marathon swimmer who drowned in Lake Michigan, Sunday, Aug. 2, was found in the lake about six o'clock last Friday evening, 12 days after the sad affair. George Gauthier of Two Rivers saw the body outside the north pier at Two Rivers about 100 yards from shore. He notified the U.S. Coast Guard station and the crew immediately brought it ashore. Gauthier went out on the pier to look for the body after reading that a Milwaukee "seer" had said that it would float near the pier Friday or Saturday. Any one could make a good guess as to about when it would rise to the surface. Campion was one of eleven swimmers who started the 5.6 mile course from the Manitowoc pier to the Two Rivers pier as part of a water carnival promoted by the Two Rivers Reporter. After a squall had kicked up a sea and scattered the swimmers, Coast Guard boats took n the swimmers excepting the sole one who finished Max Kuhkle and expecting Campion who was found missing on a check-up on the Two Rivers pier. The Coast Guard did not give up searching for the body during the twelve days that intervened up to the finding last Friday. Gauthier, the finder was given the $50 reward offered by the Two Rivers newspaper. The seriousness with which this silly seer nonsense has been taken is a sad commentary on the average intelligence.

His body was taken to Chicago for burial. Der Nord Westen, 07 Jan. 1909 ********* Edward Dunning, an accountant at the office of the Western Elevator company died Saturday night at his home on St. Clair St. He was thirty-six years of age and had been a resident of the city for about two years. He leaves surviving a wife, having no known blood kindred. Mr. Dunning had been suffering for months with heart trouble which with late complications caused his death and the plucky fight for months to keep going under circumstances that would have kept an ordinarily courageous man in bed has been the admiration of his friends. Mr. Dunning was a likable man, winning warm friends upon brief acquaintance by a quiet dignity of mien (sic) and unaffected geniality. The young widow has the sympathy of the city. After services at the Sacred Heart church Monday the body was taken to Chicago accompanied by a committee of the local Elks. Manitowoc Pilot, January 7, 1909

ESTERLY, FRANCIS AEROPLANE CRASH HERE SUNDAY WAS FATAL One Dead as Result of Accident When New Plane Nose Dives to Earth Sunday Aviation received a setback in this city last Sunday morning when an accident occurred which cost the life of one man, seriously injured another and badly wrecked the new plane owned here and only recently purchased by James Cahill of this city. Cahill started on the disastrous flight about 11 o'clock Sunday morning, accompanied by Francis Esterly of Manitowoc. Flying low the plane took a sudden nose dive that landed in a creek on the Rahmlow farm, a complete wreck. Esterly crawled out of the machine just as Mr. Rahmlow, his son, who witnessed the accident arrived on the scene. Cahill, who was piloting the machine was dragged from the wreckage and both men rushed to the hospital where Esterly died at 8:30 Sunday night before members of his family, who had been advised of the mishap, could reach here. Cahills condition is reported to be favorable with the extent of his injuries a few broken ribs and broken bones in the face as far as can be learned now. An investigator from Madison visited the wreck Tuesday. He gave it as his opinion that the crash would have been worse had the machine not landed in the ditch and Cahill would certainly have been killed. The ditch being soft, he stated, acted like a cushion and killed the force of the impact considerably. Esterly, also known by the name of "Peterson", it is said and had made Manitowoc his home for the last two months. He was taken up by Cahill after the latter had made a number of flights alone. The plane was headed west of the city after the start and was flying low when it took a sudden nose dive for the grown. It struck the south bank of a stream through the Rahmlow farm, burying its nose deep into the bank and making shambles of the machine. How either man could escape with his life remains a mystery to anyone who has viewed the wreck. Esterly had no chance for life as broken ribs had punctured his lungs and his intestines were ruptured. He made a brave fight but the end came to 8:30 o'clock before members of the family at Evanston, who were racing to the city by automobile, could reach here. His mother, Mrs. George Jorgenson and stepfather, George Jorgenson, arrived an hour and a half after death had occurred. Arrangements were made to return the body to Evanston Monday evening and the funeral was held Wednesday at Evanston. Cahill, who is an experienced flier according to reports, was piloting the machine at the time of the accident and Esterly was reported to be a stunt man. What caused the accident is not quite clear but Mr. Cahill believes that Esterly unknowingly interfered with the control bars of the machine thus causing the crash.

From New Hampshire she moved to Dixon, Ill., in 1836 and the following year was married there to Michael Fellows.

It was a very hot day. Whether young Gartzke had cooled off enough before going into the water, or whether there was some other cause, it has been absolutely established that the young man was overcome with cramps and sank before the eyes of his comrades who were unable to help him in time.

GLOVER, GEORGE DIED. - It becomes our painful duty today to record the sudden death or our fellow citizen, George Glover, one of the early settlers of our county, who died this morning a little before 9 o'clock, quite unexpectedly, although he had been incapacitated for active business by a lingering complaint for a long time, and confined to his bed for over two weeks. The deceased was 43 years of age last February. He came here in 1851 as clerk in his father's store, and was established in business by his brother William in 1852. At a later date he was elected Sheriff of this county, which office he filled to general satisfaction. He leaves a sorrow stricken wife who has shared his joys and sorrows, in faith and love for the last fifteen years and a host of deeply mourning friends and brothers. While we drop the sympathetic tear at the death of our deceased friend, let us cast around his foibles, whatever they may have been, the broad mantle of human charity, nor withhold from his memory the commendation that his virtues claim at our hands. Perfection on earth has never been attained; the wisest as well as the best of men, have gone astray. Suffer, then, the apologies of human nature to plead for him who can no longer plead for himself; and may we who survive him, be more strongly cemented in the ties of union and friendship, that during the short space allotted to us here we may wisely and usefully employ our time; and in the reciprocal intercourse of kind and friendly acts, mutually promote the welfare and happiness of each other. To those of his immediate relatives and friends, who are most heart stricken at the loss we have all sustained, we have but little of this world's consolation to offer. We can only sincerely, deeply and most affectionately sympathize with them in their afflicting bereavement. But we can say that He who tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, looks down with infinite compassion upon the widow in the hour of her desolation; and that he who is All Love will fold his protecting arms around those who put their trust in Him. F.B. Manitowoc Tribune Thursday, August 4, 1870 pg. 1 ******** DEATH OF GEO. S. GLOVER. - The remains of Geo. S.
