JOHN ENDRIES (d. 1957) John Endries Drowns When Truck Breaks Through Ice John Endries, 55, was drowned Thursday afternoon in Pigeon Lake near Valders, when his truck loaded with sand broke through the ice and sank to the bottom. Endries was trapped in the cab of the truck. He was hauling sand and gravel for cottage owners at the lake. The sand settles to the bottom when the ice melts and makes a better swimming beach. His truck broke through about 50 feet from the south shore of the lake. The truck settled on its tailgate with just the tips of the front fender showing above the ice. Rescue operations were complicated by the large chunks of ice floating in the hole. Edward Dyzbalys, owner of a resort on the lake, used a ladder and grapple hooks, to remove the ice. He was then able to break the windshield with an ice chisel. Merlin Wiesner and two sons of the deceased also helped with the recovery of the body. The first alarm was called in by Mrs. Frieda Green, who lives in a cottage near the scene of the accident. Mrs. Green said that she heard the Endries truck coming with the last load and went out to warn him of a “soft spot” in the ice. But his truck had already plunged beneath the surface before she could give the warning. She fainted. When she recovered she called Dyzbalys. Mrs. Green was highly excited and somewhat incoherent concerning the “soft spot in the ice.” Mrs. Dyzbalys, however explained that while visiting at Green’s earlier in the week she had noticed an open spot and was told that a load of sand and gravel dumped there had melted through the ice and dropped to the bottom. Surface of the ice in the immediate area was of a shell-like quality which broke under the normal weight of the rescue party, but was supported by some 20 inches of ice underneath the shell. Gravel dropping through the ice in any volume would have forced water onto the snow already on the ice forming the surface crust. Tracks of the truck leading to the hole showed it had been breaking through a progressively deeper crust for from six to 10 feet before the final plunge. Two days of freezing weather and a light snowfall had masked the spot making it look like the rest of the lake surface. Endries’ wife told authorities that her husband had stopped at home and she had had a cup of coffee with him about 15 minutes before the accident. According to Coroner Dr. Theodore Teitgen it was learned that Endries had broken through the ice on Cedar Lake in the town of Schleswig last year while simllarly spreading gravel on the ice, but had jumped clear of the truck at that time. Funeral Monday Funeral services were held Monday at St. Gregory’s Catholic church at St. Nazianz, the Rev. Denis Cooney officiating. Burial was made in the church cemetery Mr. Endries was born September 17, 1901, on the homestead farm, son of the late John and Mary Gelling Endries. September 29, 1928, he married the former Rose Burkart of St. Nazianz. They had three sons, two of whom died. After the death of his wife April 15, 1931, he married the former Rose Woelfel of St. Nazianz. Together with his sons he ran the feed mill and a trucking business in St. Nazianz, besides operating the farm. He was a member of the Holy Name society of St., Gregory’s church and was a director of the National Farm Loan association of Green Bay. He is survived by his wife; seven daughters, five sons, four brothers, Clement of St. Nazianz, Wilfred of Neenah, Alvin of Potter, and Herman, whose address is not known; a sister, Mrs. Margaret Binversie of School Hill; and four grandchildren.
