HERMAN GLOE cemetery #89A From Der Nord Westen, 07 May 1896: On Thurs. afternoon, Hermann Gloe of Two Rivers brought his life to an end by ingesting a quantity of carbolic acid. (The article goes into detail about the sequence of events beginning with his participation in the music at a marriage near Two Rivers the night before; and a dispute with his wife the next morning as to whether she had awakened him in time for work; and how his son had gone to the factory to clear his absence, then returned to find his father still in bed having drunk the poison; Dr. Currens being summoned too late.) The deceased worked in the lathe department as a foreman in the chair factory for 22 yrs. and was well thought of. He was a twice married man and there is much conjecture about his motives for ingesting poison. The deceased was born 28 Nov. 1857 in the vicinity of Eutin, Schleswig-Holstein, and so was only 38 yrs. of age. His funeral took place Sun. and Mr. Pahlcoetter delivered the funeral oration.
