JOHN YUNK FARMER BOY IS GIVEN 5 MONTHS Assault and Battery Plus 50-cent Theft, Hard for Franklin Youth The grabbing of a young girl, by the arm and later stealing 50 cents from her when she dropped her purse near Mishicott Sunday resulted in the sentencing of a Franklin farmer youth to serve five months in the county jail on the first charge and the paying of $5 and costs or thirty days for the theft. His name is John Yunk and he is 24 years old. There were two counts against Yunk, that of assault and battery and the stealing of money both misdemeanors, from Martha Hoffman who was the complainant. He pleaded guilty. Yunk was sleeping off a jag in the woods near Mishicott and awakened as the little girl was passing. He then walked with her and grabbed her by the arm and when the girl dropped her purse he quietly picked it up and put the purse and money in his pocket refusing to give it up. Testimony in municipal court before Judge Schmidt, this morning showed that the defendant had used improper language to the girl. Sheriff Pellett and Dist Atty Healy investigated the case. According to his own story which Yunk told the court, he is a sort of bad actor. He was sent away from home by his father five years ago, that he drinks and has had trouble, although never before in court. Although 24 years old, Yunk appears to be much younger not unusually intelligent. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Monday, August 21, 1911 Page 3

F. ZANDER MISHICOTT In company of Mr. Fischbein, of the Badger State Manufacturing Co., we took a drive into the country last Wednesday, directing our first to the village of Mishicott, where he made a short stop, and then proceeded to the beautiful and fertile farming region which lies to the north and east of that busy little burg. The farms located along the road which we traveled are said to equal any in the county in point of soil; and the tidy appearance of the barns and farm houses which we passed certainly indicated thrift and prosperity on the part of the farmers. We saw several fields of winter wheat during one drive which looked exceedingly fine. Most of the spring wheat which was up also looked flourishing. The village of Mishicott is a handsome little town, and deserves a more extended notice than we are able to give it at present; but we shall endeavor to do it justice at some future time. It has a good water-power, a flour-mill, a blacksmith shop, two churches, and a fine large school house. Hitching our horse at the hotel of which Mr. Damon is the popular landlord, we gave that gentleman a short call. Afterwards we called on Mr. Heyroth, who is doing a large mercantile business there; on Selk & Son, who have a large store and are doing a splendid business, and on Mr. John Terens, who also has a large store and deals in hardware. We looked wistfully over the river where J. Linstedt's large brewery looms up, but were unable to visit the vaults as we would like to have done had we had time. Mr. Linstedt has the reputation of making excellent beer, and from the sample we got at A.C. Terens' we should say that he deserves it. Mr. F. Zander, owns a hotel in the village which is quite a popular resort, but for want of time we failed to give him a call, as was also the case with Mr. Braasch, who keeps a hotel and saloon on the southern outskirts of the village. We noticed several new buildings, going up, which indicate that the village is neither dead nor sleeping, but full of life and activity. Manitowoc Co. Chronicle (Two Rivers), June 1, 1875

GEORGE ZIPPERER IN MUNICIPAL COURT: Six months ago George Zipperer of Whitelaw was sentenced to pay a fine of $300 for moonshining. He was given a week to pay it in as he pleaded poverty. He hadn't paid the first installment up to last week and he was brought in to explain. He was under suspicion of being up to his old tricks again, but this he emphatically denied and said he hadn't taken a drink in six months. The court appointed the attending officer as official breath smeller and he approached George, sniffed sagaciously with expert nose and reported to the court that the defendant had quite recently been regaling himself on double strength white mule, all of which was duly made a matter of court record. George went to jail in default of paying the old fine. Later - He paid the fine Monday and went home. The bill amounted to $313.38. Manitowoc Pilot, April 13, 1922 p.1

ZIVATKOWSKI, FRANK THOUGTH THEY WERE MARRIED. A year and a half ago Frank Zivatkowski and Mary Valinski, two Russians, residing in this city, appeared before the county judge and secured a special dispensation to wed. Neither of the parties are very well acquainted with the English language and upon receiving their permit thought they heard the judge say "I pronounce you man and wife." The couple lived together only a short time when they agreed to disagree and much quarreling was the result. The young man also accuses the mother-in-law of having "butted in" and adding to their troubles. She was "wise" to the fact that her daughter was never legally wedded to the young man and the special permit was in her possession. Zivatkowski after being annoyed and nagged until he could stand it no longer, finally decided to call on the judge to determine whether or not his marriage was binding. After the records had been looked up he was informed that he was never legally married to the girl and that there was nothing that bound him to her. When he left the judge's office he was happier than he was the day he secured the special permit and resolved that hereafter he will know whether he is married or not.-Two Rivers Chronicle.

Zygmund, who is a South Side man, came in contact with a band saw, striking the saw with his leg, and cutting a deep gash that laid open the knee cap and joint. Zygmund was taken to the hospital where he is bein cared for. Zygmund's leg is badly lacerated and there is danger that the knee can become stiffened from the ???? though physicians are hopeful of saving the knee.
