The death of Mrs. Vogel occurred at an early hour this morning following an illness that had its beginning at Christmas.

ETHEL VOGEL cemetery #44 POISON OF SEWER GASES This Is Believed to Have Caused Death of Two Year Old Child on South Side ENTIRE FAMILY OF SIX ILL Broken Sewer Pipe in Cellar at Home of Daniel Vogel May Have Been Responsible Poisoning from the escaping sewer gases, that invaded the home as the result of a broken pipe in the cellar, is believed to have caused the death of the two year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Vogel which occurred Saturday evening and it is feared that other members of the family have been affected. Symptoms of the child’s illness indicated poison of some nature and investigation made revealed the broken sewer pipe in the cellar, in a room that is directly under that used by the family as sleeping apartments and it is the opinion given by physicians that death was due to the escaping gases. Three young children of the family were taken ill at the same time and although the other two recovered upon treatment given by physicians, there was apparent but little improvement in the younger child and death resulted Saturday. There had been noticeable for some time previous to the serious illness of the child a decline in health and the parents state that they had noted the odor, that is now ascribed to sewer gases for some time, but had not discovered the broken pipe. The physician who was called directed the investigation and a city plumber who was called in located the pipe. Although repairs have been made and precautions taken there is danger of typhoid fever to other members of the family from the effects they have suffered. This is the second child that Mr. and Mrs. Vogel have lost by death since their removal here and the sympathy of many friends is extended to them in their sad bereavement. The family resides at 1418 Marshal street in the same district in which the city has been experiencing trouble with the sewers that have been damaged by the recent heavy rains.

LUDWIG F. VOGEL cemetery #7 SUCKED UNDER BY SWIFT CURRENTS TWO DROWN; LOWER FALLS GEORGE GRIMM AND LOUIS VOGEL OF WHITELAW MEET DEATH AT BEGINNING OF DAY’S OUTING NEAR CLARKS MILLS SUNDAY FATHER KUHL AND PETER HARTLAUB TRY TO RESCUE; NEAR MEET SAME FATE A tragedy that has saddened the homes of two families at Whitelaw and the entire community there, occurred at Lower Falls on Sunday afternoon when Louis Vogel, aged 28, and Geo. Grimm, aged 19, were drowned while in swimming. The dip in the river was one of the day’ pleasures anticipated by a crowd of Whitelaw young men who had come to the Falls for a day’s outing led by Father Kuhl, pastor of the Whitelaw church. The drowning was described by Father Kuhl this morning over the telephone who, almost prostrated by the tragedy, was unable to tell clearly just how it occurred. Father Kuhl said: “I cannot really tell how it happened. It all came on suddenly. The two boys and myself had jumped in to the water preparatory to a swim and all of us were immediately sucked into a whirlpool. George is a swimmer and so am I and I really cannot tell how he came to get into the pool and unable to get out. The water is treacherous, it is true, but it seems he should have got to land unless he was caught in such a way that his lungs were filled and he could not rise to the surface.” “Louis Vogel and I were with George and he grabbed us. George must have taken a firm hold of Louis who could not swim and the two went down together. The water was so swift and the eddies so strong that it was with difficulty that I got out of the hole. I was exhausted by my efforts and could render little assistance though Peter Hartlaub who was on shore, dove at the point where the two went down but it was too late.” “The bodies were recovered almost immediately after they went down and attempts were made to resuscitate the poor fellows but it was of no avail. Their lungs had become filled and death had resulted from suffocation. They were taken to their homes at Whitelaw where sorrowful parents of the boys were prostrated by grief.” From another witness it was learned that Hartlaub who went to the rescue of the two young men nearly suffered their fate. He dove for Grimm who came to the surface long enough to cry out for help. The latter grabbed him and almost pulled him down. Hartlaub’s shirt was torn from his body by the drowning man. Hartlaub was forced to come ashore. Father Kuhl who assisted, was unable to do much because only recently he had an operation and his strength soon failed. Jos. Steuber, another of the men on shore secured a fish pole with this reached the point where the priest was struggling in the water and it is said but for his act there would have been a triple drowning. The drowning came almost at the beginning of what was to be a day of pleasurable outing. One account is that Grimm was the first to plunge into the water and when he got into difficulty the rest plunged in after. The place where the drowning occurred is well known as a treacherous place though not many drownings have happened in recent years there. There is a deep pool and rapids and the water swirls about in eddies that are strong and even a good swimmer might well get confused in the currents. It is said that at one point the water is nearly thirty feet deep. George Grimm is a son of Joseph Grimm who conducts a general merchandise store at Whitelaw. He was a student at Calvary seminary and was home for his vacation. Louis Vogel was unmarried, a son of Anton Vogel, a farmer and mill owner at Whitelaw. He was employed as a lineman by the telephone company. Whitelaw and the country thereabouts is overcast by a pall of sorrow over the drowning. Both young men were well known and the sympathy of the entire community is extended to the grief stricken parents. The double funeral will take place at 10am tomorrow and will be attended by the entire countryside. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Monday, July 12, 1915, Page 1 ************* WHITELAW AND VICINITY PAY TRIBUTE TO VICTIMS OF SUNDAY TRAGEDY IN LARGE FUNERAL Whitelaw and surrounding country today paid a last tribute to George Grimms and Louis Vogel, victims of Sunday’s river tragedy when hundreds attended what is said to have been the largest funeral ever held in that vicinity. The services were held for the two at Whitelaw Catholic church, attended by twenty priests of the county who assisted in the services. The two bodies, following the last rites at the cemetery, were interred in separate graves. The Rev. J.A. Geisler of Two Rivers was the celebrant of mass, with the Rev. Braun of Kellnersville as deacon and Rev. Theo. Kerstens of Meeme as sub-deacon, and Rev. J. Decker of St. Francis as the master of ceremonies. Rev. Mauruse O’Cap of Mt. Calvary said mass at the side altar while Rev. Joseph Roder of St. Paul was organist and Rev. A. Roder of Cleveland choir leader. The sermon was given by Re. A. Garhaus of Brillion. In the sanctuary were the Revs. Hieling, Clarks Mills; Kolar, Reedsville; Hugo, Two Rivers; O’Leary, Manitowoc; and Joseph Kubuik, Alfred Pritzel, Jas. Zomgracek and John Vesely. A profusion of beautiful flowers and the sincere and deep sorrow manifested by the large concourse attending the funeral was a tribute to the memory of the two young men.
