resident of the north side Manitowoc. The burial took place yesterday afternoon. 
The deceased was a daughter of the Mr. Hermann Lindemann from the Township of 
Eaton."-interpretation by Emilie B. Lindemann

(Comment: The obituary of Auguste Klug née Lindemann does not scarcely mention 
her by name. It was as if the weekly newspaper in which published this notice 
reported…what's with all of the commotion in town? It was the funeral yesterday-
the church bells tolled 23 times for Auguste Klug-then the procession left First 
German Ev. Lutheran Church and headed up to big hill, to bury her remains at 
Evergreen Cemetery.  What's more, her father brought the family via horse and 
carriage to town, all of the way from the Township of Liberty where they have 
lived for the past year)

Gestorben.   Frau Wilhelmine Klug, geb. Ochs, die Gattin des Herrn Albert 
Klug, 26. und Wollmer Strasse wohnhaft, wurde am Samstag plötzlich aus dem 
Leben abberufen. Sie war schon seit längerer Zeit an einem Herzleiden 
erkrankt, doch war sie nie an das Bett gesesselt, und niemand hatte geahut, 
dass augenblicklich Todesgefahr vorhanden sei. Am Samstag Nachmittag, als 
sie mit ihrem dreijährigen Söhnschen allein zuhause war, brach sie plötzlich 
zusammen und stürzte zu Boden. Glücklicherweise wurde sie hier bald gefunden 
und wurde ärztliche Hülfe gerufen, doch vergeblich, denn wenige Stunden später 
gab sie ihren Geist auf. Frau Klug war geboren am 25. Oktober 1867 in Mishicott; 
ihr Alter bertug also 37 Jahre und nahezu 10 Monate. Sie hinterlässt einen 
trauernden Gatten und fünf Kinder: Emma, Eduard, Walter, Elsa und Georg. Das 
Begräbniss fand am Dienstag unter Leitung des Herrn Past. Machmüller auf dem 
Evergreen Friedhofe statt. Den hinterbliebenen unser Beileid.

"Obituary.   Mrs. Wilhelmine Klug, née Ochs, the wife of Mr. Albert Klug, 
26 and Wollmer Street residence, was on Saturday suddenly called away from 
life. She was already since a time in heart-failing sickness, but was never 
confined to bed and no one had suspected the moment of death had come. On 
Saturday afternoon she was with her three year old son alone home, she 
suddenly collapsed to the ground. As luck would have it she was soon found 
here and doctorly help was called upon, despite this, a few hours later she 
gave up her ghost. Mrs. Klug was born 25 October 1867 in Mishicot; her age 
reached 37 years and nearly 10 months. She left behind an honorable spouse 
and five children, Emma, Eduard, Walter, Elsa and Georg. The burial took 
place on Tuesday under the direction of Mr. Past. Machmiller at the 
Evergreen Cemetery. To the survivors, our sympathies.

GEORGIA B. KNAPP   cemetery #4

From Der Nord Westen, 15 June 1905:
A terrible accident happened Tues. evening near Quarry, 
which lies on the Wisconsin Central Railroad about 16 
miles from here. A bridge crosses the Manitowoc River 
there and it appears as though Miss Georgia Knapp, 
daughter of Quarry resident A.D. Knapp, along with other 
girls, tried to climb into a rubber boat. Whether she 
slipped or whether the boat tipped, the other girls were 
not able to say, but she fell into the water which was 
swollen and turbulent because of the recent heavy rains. 
She drowned within sight of her companions. John Last, 
a young man who is in the employ of the Knapps, and who 
saw the incident, jumped in to save her, but was picked 
up by the wild stream and he quickly drowned as well. 
The 2 girls, who had been witness to the event without 
being able to help, went screaming to the Knapp residence 
and told the parents of the misfortune…. Help was obtained 
and the search begun for the bodies as soon as grappling 
hooks arrived from Manitowoc, and with their use both bodies 
were found yesterday morning. John Last comes from Grafton, 
Fond du Lac County, where his parents reside. His father 
was notified by telegraph and arrived yesterday to claim 
his 24-yr. old son’s body. Miss Knapp was 16 yrs. of age 
and was her parents only child. The poor mother was so 
terribly stricken by the event that one fears for her life.
