EDWARD JUNKER cemetery #68 NEWTON FARMER DESPONDENT, IS SUICIDE TODAY Despondency, said to have been caused by worry over financial matters and belief that he would be unable to meet his obligations, is thought to have prompted Edward Junker, a well-known town of Newton farmer to end his life by hanging. Junker's body was found hanging in the barn at his farm a mile west of the Weyer cheese factory, early this morning by his wife who made search for him when he failed to return to the house. No inquest will be held, District Attorney Brady, who investigated, saying that the case was one of suicide. Junker has worried greatly for some time past over conditions and is said to have viewed the future with misgiving. He figured as defendant in a suit for damages growing out of an automobile accident some time ago and a judgement of $1,150 was returned against him in favor of Edward Eggert, plaintiff in the suit. Mr. Junker was well and favorably known in the community and was held in high regard by neighbors and all who knew him. For some time Mr. Junker has been acting strangely and yesterday, it is said, appeared demented and friends were called in to quiet him but he apparently recovered. He left the house at an early hour this morning and when he failed to return after a lapse of time, Mrs. Junker visited the barn and found the body. Mr. Junker is survived by his wife and two children. Manitowoc Herald News, Manitowoc, Wis. Tuesday, May 10, 1921 P. 1 ******** AWARD OF $1100 FOR PLAINTIFF IN AUTO INJURY SUIT Edw. Eggert Is Given Verdict Against Newton Man A verdict for $1100 damages, carrying costs of the action was awarded by a circuit court jury in favor of the plaintiff in the case of Edward Eggert of this city vs. Edward Junker of Newton, at the opening of court today. The jury was given the case at 10 yesterday and reached a verdict at 7 and it was returned sealed to court this morning. Answering the seven questions of the special verdict, all in favor of Eggert, the jury gave a clean cut victory to the plaintiff, who sued for $10,000 damages for injuries in a collision between his motorcycle and an automobile driven by Junker last summer. Eggert claimed permanent injury and charged that Junker was responsible for the accident. The jury upheld his claim. The accident happened at the corner of Fourteenth and Washington streets in this city and Eggert had his leg cut open by injuries he sustained. Junker is a wealthy farmer of Newton.

TOMAS JURANEK cemetery #34 THE CECHS IN AMERICA The progressives scored a triumph when Klacel arrived in the United States, in 1869. Here was an author of distinction, a much-talked-of philospher and intimate friend of some of the greatest men and women of Bohemia. A report which preceded him from abroad that he was coming to America to found a commune of followers, added, if anything, to the magic of his name. Even men who had studied theology or were duly ordained as priests, turned against their Church. Few of these endured more for a principle than Father Thomas Juranek. Coming to America in 1848 or 1849, a backwash of revolutionary Bohemia, Juranek tried hard to get a start at something that was more to his liking than the pulpit. He drudged for a time at cigarmaking in New York. Seeing no prospects in this occupation, he made his way to Milwaukee; there he became a fruit peddler. Saving a few dollars he bought a hand-organ and with this instrument strapped to his back, he tramped along the Mississippi River to New Orleans and back to Wisconsin. He settled in Cooperstown, in Manitowoc County; there he established himself as a schoolmaster, cigarmaker, justice of the peace, and newspaper correspondent. (1) He died March 5, 1890.
