MARIA C.D. SCHRIEVER   cemetery #89A

WEATHER BEATEN SLAB MARKS GRAVE; RECALLS A MURDER
OLD INHABITANTS AT TWO RIVERS RECALL MURDER OF MARY SCHRIBER, 
MYSTERY OF WHICH WAS NEVER CLEARED UP
A little north of the Vernon monument and a few steps southwest of 
the Voshardt mausoleum at the public cemetery at Two Rivers, is a 
shrunken grave that would, no doubt, long since have been forgotten 
but for the old, weather beaten marble slab at its head. The sunken 
spot with its memorial slab is not different than the other graves 
with modest head stones that tell of persons remembered only by the 
oldest inhabitants. Were it not for the odd and unusual inscription 
it would not be worthy of special notice. The slab which has stood 
for over fifty years, bears in German the inscription, "Murdered. 
Mary Schriber(sic)." 
A further reading shows that she was a young girl, not yet out of 
her teens. The tragedy which the words on the tombstone suggest is 
left to the imagination of the reader who may ponder long over the 
mystery. The oldest inhabitants say that Mary Schriber was murdered 
on a Sunday afternoon when the family with whom she made her home 
was away on a visit. A friend coming to call found her prostrate body 
on the floor and the ghastly surroundings gave evidence of foul murder. 
An old musket lay near and the ramrod from it had been shot, by some 
cowardly assassin, through Mary Schriber's heart. The deed was done 
in a house now gone and within a few hundred feet of where her remains 
rest. 
Indictments were found against suspects but no one was ever convicted 
of the crime and the murderer of Mary Schriber and the motive which 
inspired the deed remains a mystery that will never be solved.

FATHER RAYMOND SCHRIMPF SDS    cemetery #38

Born September 19, 1922 - Died January 4, 1998
Father Raymond Schrimpf (birth name: Richard John) was born in 1922 in Francis Creek, 
Wisconsin, a small village north of Manitowoc. He attended Rockwood Public High School 
and then Salvatorian Seminary in St. Nazianz. He entered the US Army's Air Force division 
in 1942, and served during World War II and after, until 1947. He then attended Marquette

Still sensing a call to the priesthood and religious life, he returned to St. Nazianz, 
and entered the Novitiate in 1950. He made his profession of vows on September 8, 1951. 
He completed his studies for the priesthood at Catholic University in Washington, DC, 
and was ordained in the chapel of Trinity College in that city on December 8, 1956. Fr.

named the Director of the Deferred Giving Program at Salvatorian Center in New Holstein. 
He ministered on the weekends in the Chilton area Salvatorian parishes and in School Hill, 
and in 1985, he became pastor of Holy Trinity Parish in Hohenwald, Tennessee. He returned 
to Francis Creek, Wisconsin, in 1987, and helped in the neighboring parishes when he 
could, but failing health began to take its toll. He died in St. Mary's Home in Manitowoc 
on January 4, 1998, where he had lived for just a few weeks prior to his death. He was 
buried alongside family members in the cemetery of St. Anne's Parish in Francis Creek. 
His brother, Fr. Reginald Schrimpf, was also a Salvatorian priest of the USA Province. 
In addition to his pastoral ministries, Fr. Raymond's earlier skills were always put to 
good use wherever he served. He enjoyed upgrading the electrical wiring and doing 
carpentry work in the places he lived, and in his later life, the Society's cottage in 
northern Wisconsin also benefited from his abilities.

sons, young men, notified him that they would see that it was done and
C.R. Zorn, a justice of the peace at Louis Corners issued a precept for
a coroner's jury to meet at his office on Monday morning.
In company with Dr. Luhman, who was to take preliminary steps in the
autopsy, District Attorney Chloupek went out to Schleswig on Monday
morning.  When they arrived at Louis Corners where the post mortem was
to be held, fully 300 people, men and women were presennt, so great was
the interest in the case.  Before the arrival of the officers the grave
had been excavated to within a few inches of the coffin, and while the
officers were present the body was wholly exhumed.  It was taken to the
justice's office and the stomach was taken out by Dr. Luhman.  The
stomach lay on a table near around which the jury sat, while the saloon
was crowded.  The widow who is suspected of the crime, was present,
outwardly cool but to a close observer, excited.  The hall where the
corpse lay was crowded but quiet; the bar room was crowded and noisy
while the development of facts connected with a tragedy was in progress.

Schroeder lived in a community the members of which are but little known
in Manitowoc.  They are an unobtrusive people, intent only upon earning
a competency and wholly indifferent to outside matters.  Steinthal is a
place of difficult access.  It lies among the most rugged of the Kettle
Range hills.  A little less than a mile south of the post office known
as Steinthal is where Schroeder lived and where he died under
circumstances which led to inquiry.

The stomach and liver were sent to Prof. Haines of Chicago for
examination.  The body when disinterred, was found to be in a remarkable
state of preservation.  The stomach and liver were as fresh as if death
was of recent occurrence.  This is indicative of poison.  Mrs. Schroeder
had in her possession two letters which she claims had been written by
her husband in which he states that he poisoned himself because he felt
he had not treated his family properly.  One is written with a lead
pencil and the other with ink.  It is said the hand writing of the two
letters is not similar and appears to be that of a young person.  A
request that the letters be not opened until four weeks after his death
is indorsed [sic] on one of the envelopes.

It is learned that Mrs. Schroeder attempted to purchase poison in Kiel.
She informed the druggist that she wished to poison a dog and wanted
something which would work slowly.  She refused to sign the register, a
proceeding which is required when poison is purchased, and left without
it.  It seems that she was jealous of her husband and that for the past
few years they did not live together happily.

The inquest was in progress Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.

After a long and severe cross examination the district attorney drew out
a confession from the woman.  She admits having adminstered poison to
her husband but claims that he took two doses himself, and that upon his
request she gave him the third dose.  The jury brought in a verdict in
accordance with the confession, and a warrant was issued for her arrest.
She was brought to Manitowoc Wednesday and is now in jail.
******************
Manitowoc Pilot, Vol. XXXV No. 23, March 8, 1894, Page 3 Column 3

Mrs. Schroeder was brought to the city on Wednesday of last week by
Deputy Sheriff Mueller of Kiel and lodged in jail as a result of the
inquest held before Justice Zorn at Louis Corners.  She will be tried
for the murder of her husband who died on the 19th of January under
circumstances which led to suspicion.  Mrs. Schroeder persists in the
statement that the third dose of poison which proved fatal was
administered to her husband at his own request, and that he had
previously taken two doses himself.  She admits having dictated the
letter written by a neighbor's wife which purports to have been written
by Schroeder, but says it was by his advice and that he wished by this
means to exonerate her with the children, [sic] At times she
apostrophizes her dead husband with passionate earnestness and wishes he
could state the facts as they were.

The outlook is gloomy for her.  She is deserted by all her friends, even
her children do not show natural sympathy.  She has secured no bail and
the children make no effort for her in this direction.  She has three
children, -- two sons anad a daughter, all of whom are married.  She is
53 years old and has lived with her husband in northern Schleswig about
20 years.  She has the appearance of a woman worn out by manual labor
and no doubt had to do a large share of the farm work in addition to her
domestic duties, as she claims.  Her husband, she says, has been running
behind for some years and they were getting in debt.  He did not wish to
live longer and pleaded for the last dose of poison saying that he could
not recover from the effects of the first.

She plead guilty at the inquest, though insisting that the poison was
administered at Schroeder's request.  This, of course, makes an
examination unnecessary and the case will go directly to trial in the
circuit court.  The scenes at the inquest were of a highly dramatic
nature,  -- a crowd of nearly 500 being in constant attendance.  The
woman was six hours on the stand and finally made a clean breast of the
whole affair in private to the district attorney.

performed at that place 73 years ago.
Mr. Schroeder preceded her in death on March 15, 1936, one month after the 
couple's seventy-first wedding anniversary. After their marriage they continued 
to reside in the old country until the spring of 1883 when Mr. and Mrs. 
Schroeder and their only son, Charles H. came to this country and located in 
Kiel. After a few years the Schroeder family purchased a farm in Rockville, on 
which they resided two years and again returned to Kiel where they have always 
resided at their present home on N. Third street. Mr. Schroeder was for many 
years employed as delivery man for the former Rudolph Heins store in Kiel, and 
later was employed in the Kiel Wooden Ware company plant.

passed away in their youth and infancy. Surviving Mrs. Schroeder is her only

Evangelical and Reformed church and also the gathering of relatives and friends 
at their home after the services. In addition to that they also received an 
honorary congratulatory letter from the White House, President Roosevelt in 
which he expressed best wishes and continued health and happiness.

well as in the state, were privileged to observing many wedding anniversaries,

FEARED CALL TO COLORS, FARMHAND COMMITS SUICIDE
Worrying over the fact that he possibly might be drafted and sent to 
a training camp, August Schroeder, 36 years old, a farm hand employed 
by Frank Merrill, in the town of Franklin, committed suicide yesterday 
by shooting. Death was instantaneous. Schroeder slipped behind the barn 
on the Merrill farm yesterday afternoon between ? and 6 o’clock. Shortly 
afterwards those in the farm house heard a shot and on going out to 
investigate, found Schroeder dead. It was evident that Schroeder was 
worrying over the draft. He had registered in the Sept. 12 draft and he 
had told friends that he would never go to war. Their remarks that 
possibly he might be summoned soon for service, on account of being 
single is believed to have worried him to such an extent that he resolved 
to end his life. 
Sheriff Kellner and District Attorney Brady were notified of the suicide, 
but decided that no inquest was necessary. The deceased is survived by a 
brother, residing on route 3, Manitowoc, and also by two sisters residing 
in this city. Burial will probably take place tomorrow. Thos. Sullivan, 
chairman of the Franklin town board, was in the city today to notify the 
relatives.
