Herzog, 64, who led Manitowoc baseball teams to pennants in the early years of the old Lake Shore league and who was actively identified with the national pastime for more than a quarter of a century, died suddenly of a heart attack early today.

Early this morning he arose and spoke to his wife and shortly after was stricken with a heart attack from which he failed to rally. Funeral services will be held Monday at 2 p.m. from Wattawa, Urbanek and Schlei funeral home with interment at Evergreen cemetery. In the years that Mr. Herzog was interested in baseball he brought many star players to Manitowoc and developed some for the "big show." Included among those who owed their development and future big league careers to the Manitowoc man were the late Addie Joss, famous for years as a pitcher of the Cleveland club of the American league, and Joe Hauser, star first sacker of the Philadelphia Athletics and still with the Minneapolis club of the American association. Cliff Bulin, later with the Boston Red Sox, was developed by the Manitowoc manager.

At one time he headed the circuit as president. Several pennants that came to this city were directly traceable to Mr. Herzog's ability as a manager. In the tag end of one season more than 25 years ago Mr. Herzog brought Pitcher Cliff Curtis and other stars of the Milwaukee Brewers to Manitowoc to finish the season here and land the Ships at the top of the percentage column. It was in 1911 and 1912 that Mr. Herzog developed what was regarded as Manitowoc's best semi-pro team. Hurling for the Ships in those years was Cy Young, famous Fredonia pitching ace. Playing first base for Manitowoc on the same team was B. Peter Herzog, son of the manager. The pennant race developed into a crucial deciding game at Sheboygan on the last playing date of the season. Manager Herzog took his team to Sheboygan that rainy Sunday afternoon and Cy Young pitched Manitowoc to a victory and the pennant. John F. Herzog, the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Herzog, was born at Shoto in 1871. The family moved to Manitowoc when he was a young man. The elder Herzog conducted a livery and sales stable here and the deceased assisted his father in this business. Later in life he engaged in the piano business and operated retail sotres for Milwuakee companies in the city. At one time Mr. Herzog operated the Savoy tavern and palm garden. In recent years he took over the Yellow Taxicab company here and at the time of his death was district sales manager of the American Oil and Paint company.

ANNA HEWITT cemetery #16 Death was kind to Miss Anna Hewitt, a well known young lady of Cooperstown, relieving her of further sufferings from consumption with which she had been ill more than a year. She was 21 years of age and an only child of a widowed mother. During her illness she suffered much and had wasted away to a mere skeleton of her former self. The sympathy of friends is given to the bereaved mother.

JOHN E. HEWITT Cemetery #16 (here is where the Hewitt family is buried in Cooperstown, so I put this obituary here.) From the Manitowoc Pilot, January 18, 1894: John E. Hewitt died at the home of his parents in Cooperstown on Sunday January 14. He was born in Cooperstown and was 30 years old at the time of his death. He received a good common school education, but was seized with the ambition which has spurred so many young men in this county to action, to improve his education beyond what local facilities could offer. He became a teacher in the public schools and as each year increased his fund of knowledge and his efficiency as a teacher he secured a better school until he secured the principalship of the New Holstein public schools. He then quit teaching and became manager of the Williams' House of this city. He quit this position and went to Chicago but he had contracted a cold which settled on his lungs and he died of consumption after an exhibition of vitality which surprised everyone. He was a young man of most generous impulses, one on whom his friends could always count for any service which unselfish friendship might prompt. His taste for reading had the bent from which culture comes and he was a subscriber to the best magazines. Gifted with a degree of physical strength unusual in a man of average weight, he fought off impending death for a long time and never lost his interest in public matters. There is not a person who knew him whose friendship and confidence he did not enjoy. He was just to every one ernest in everything he did and though he died young he did sufficient during his lifetime to endear him to many who will learn with regret of his death.

LOUIS HEYROTH "GRANDPA" cemetery #44 From Der Nord Westen, 30 Jan. 1908: Death has taken another of our early settlers. Louis Heyroth died here Wednesday morning. He was born 10 June 1823 in Malmerswende am Harz thus arriving at an age of 84 yrs. 7 mos. and 19 days. His birth home adjoined the birth residence of the well-known German poet, G.A. Buerger. In 1848 he came to America and settled in Sheboygan, and in 1850 he moved to Mishicott when it was still a wilderness, populated by Indians, and established a farm there which he operated for many years. He later opened a store which he operated with great success. He especially interested himself in the development of the Farmer's Fire Insurance Assoc. of Mishicott, and served about 30 years as its secretary. In 1853 he married Miss Sophie Bohlmann and this fortunate union produced 3 sons and a daughter. For the past four years he has been living with his son here, Ferdinand Heyroth, except for a short interval, and it was in this residence that he died yesterday morning. He had suffered off and on with asthma, but on Tuesday morning he smoked an entire cigar with relish and felt quite well. That evening he went to bed and about 3 a.m. yesterday morning Mrs. Heyroth discovered that he was no longer alive and that he had passed without pain. In addition to his sorrowing widow, he leaves the above referred to children, 14 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. under the direction of the Odd Fellows from the funeral home at 1601 Michigan Avenue.
