PETER FRANK CONJURSKI cemetery #44 Tells Family To Call Undertaker; Suicides P.F. CONJURSKI MAKES GOOD A THREAT TO KILL Barber of City Shoots Himself After Bidding His Family Farewell Opening the door of the living room to call a last farewell to his wife and family, busied in the kitchen preparing the evening meal, Peter F. Conjurski, aged 52, a barber employed at the Kaufman shop, Jay street, committed suicide Wednesday evening, shortly before five o'clock by shooting himself through the head with a .32 calibre revolver. He was dead when the police, summoned by Mrs. Archie McMaster, living down stairs in the flat at 907 Chicago street, arrived on the scene. Conjurski, whose wife is employed at the Hotel Manitowoc, has threatened many times to take his life, and when he renewed these threats yesterday afternoon, after returning home from the barber shop, shortly after four o'clock, his wife paid little heed to them. She with the three children were in the kitchen of the home on Chicago street, busied preparing the evening meal, when the husband and father opened the door from the living room and calling "goodbye" added that they could get ready to summon an undertaker. No Inquest Called A moment or two later they heard a shot and rushing into the living room found Conjurski lying on the davenport with a bullet wound in the back of his head. Physicians and the police were notified but he was dead when they arrived. The body was removed to the undertaking parlors of Herald Frazier, Coroner Kemper and Dist. Atty. Fischer were also notified but decided that no inquest would be necessary. The deceased who was born 52 years ago in Pennsylvania, has been a resident here and at Two Rivers for the past eight years, being employed as a barber in a number of shops in that city and for the past four years in shops here. He was married 25 years ago to Clara Joly, and they removed to Wisconsin, locating at Sturgeon Bay.

JOSEPH CONNELL cemetery #60 JOSEPH CONNELL DIES SUDDENLY CO. HIGHWAY COMMISSIONER IS STRICKEN Sudden Attack Fatal Sunday Morning and Death Comes In Few Minutes Death struck heavily Sunday when it claimed Joseph Connell, county highway commissioner and one of the best known men of the county, passing away within a few minutes after he had suffered an attack of heart trouble at the home of H.C. Olson, 1021 N. Twentieth street where he made his home. Mr. Connell died a short time after a physician had been summoned to minister to him, the attack having occurred while Mr. Connell was still in bed. News of the sudden death came as a shock to the community and called forth regret everywhere. Mr. Connell had been at his office Saturday and engaged in his work as highway commissioner and had not complained of illness although friends had known for some time that he was not in robust health, despite his appearance of it. Sunday morning he retired to his room and complained of not feeling well and seemed to be laboring for breath. A physician was called who administered to his needs and it was thought that the attack would pass, but a few minutes later when members of the Olson family went to the room Mr. Connell was dead. Had Long Been Troubled Mr. Connell had been afflicted with heart trouble for years but had never considered it as serious although about eight years ago he was stricken and at that time was in serious condition. He resigned a position as income tax commissioner some years ago because he felt that office work was too confining and wanted to engage in work that would permit him to be out of doors more. It is said by those familiar with Mr. Connell's work that often he had experienced attacks when he found it difficult to overcome a shortness of breath and than many times he had been forced to halt in the midst of some work to rest to regain his strength. These attacks, however, Mr. Connell viewed with no apprehension although he visited his physician regularly. Native of County Joseph Connell was a native of Manitowoc county, born at Meeme July 30, 1865, being in the sixty-third year of life when stricken. He attended the public schools and engaged in farming which he continued until 1909 when he came to this city and for a year was employed in the clothing department of the O. Torrison Company store. In 1910 Mr. Connell was elected to the position of supervisor of income tax assessment by the county board and in 1912 when the position was placed under civil service by the state, he was appointed as assessor for Manitowoc and Calumet counties, retiring later to accept election as county highway commission, a position he has filled for a number of years. Mr. Connell was married June 16, 1896 to Nora Norris, of Liberty, who preceded him in death several years ago. There are no children, the only survivors being one brother Dr. Daniel Connell, at Beloit, and a sister, Mrs. Mary Gillis, of Deerbrook, Langlade county. Four brothers have preceded Mr. Connell in death, the last passing away just a year ago. Progressive and Capable In his work as county highway commissioner Mr. Connell had demonstrated a capability that has given Manitowoc county some of the best improved highways in the state. He was a man who was progressive in his ideas and was a staunch advocate of the movement which for several years was carried on for building of concrete road, a campaign that was crowned with success last year when the county board mapped out a five year program. Mr. Connell was engaged in work on that program when stricken. Independent and fearless in his position he commanded the respect and confidence of the county board and was accorded hearty co-operation in his efforts to carry on the work for better highways. He was equally recognized by the state highway commission, under whose jurisdiction he was, but insisted at all times that the county be permitted to follow its own plans, a demonstration of his occurring only Friday when he protested the state commission order for certain work on highway 141 near Cooperstown and carried out the plan as formulated by his office and engineers in a drainage plan on the new concrete highway there. Served County Well As income tax assessor which position he filled for several years and as highway commissioner the next seven years he had established a record for service that will be a monument to him. Two years ago Mr. Connell was urged to permit the use of his name as a condidate for state senator but he preferred to continue in his position as highway commissioner and declined to enter the field. He had often been urged for county office and had been prominent in political affairs of the county, having been a democrat. Member of Rotary Mr. Connell was a member of the Knights of Columbus and of the Rotary Club and was actively involved in both organizations in which he was held in high esteem. Funeral arrangements have not been made but it is probable the services will be held Wednesday morning at Sacred Heart with burial at Osman. The body of Mr. Connell was taken to the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Hannah Connell at 1415 Hamilton street. Manitowoc Herald News, Monday, June 18, 1928 P.2 ********* FUNERAL OF JOS.
