VIOLET MASSMANN

4 YEAR OLD VIOLET MASSMAN KILLED UNDER AUTOMOBILE 
ON WASHINGTON ST. SUNDAY
Child Rushes from Walk and Collides With Machine and is Thrown Under It—
Skull Fractured and Death Comes a Few Minutes Later
Another automobile tragedy marked the passing of the annual Labor 
day holiday in the city, Little Violet, four year old daughter of 
Mr. and Mrs. John Massman, 921 South Eighteenth street, being the 
victim of the fatality. The child died as a result of injuries 
sustained early Sunday when she was struck by an automobile driven 
by Edgar Miller, son of P.A. Miller, when she ran into the machine 
while crossing the street at Eighteenth and Washington streets. 
The child was thrown under the wheels and died at the hospital 
after having been picked up unconscious. Mr. Miller, aged 22, was 
driving a Reo car and accompanied by Erwin Pentzien, a friend, and 
was going east on Washington street as the Massman child, in company 
of her aunt, Miss Anna Massman, was returning to her home from a 
meat market near by. At Eighteenth and Washington the child pulled 
away from Miss Massman and rushed into the street, colliding with 
the running board of the automobile and being thrown under the car. 
The machine, according to eye witnesses was not proceeding at a 
high rate of speed and was stopped by Mr. Miller within a few feet 
of the spot at which the child collided with it. Mr. Miller and Luis 
Bull who witnessed the accident, picked the child up and she was 
taken in Mr. Miller’s car. At Twelfth street Dr. G.W. Patchen who 
was driving by was summoned and directed that the little girl be 
taken to the hospital. 
The child lived about twenty minutes after reaching the hospital. 
It was found that her skull had been fractured. It is believed that 
in colliding with the machine the little girl was struck by the 
fender and sustained the fracture as she was thrown to the ground 
under the car. Mr. Miller is exonerated from blame for the accident 
by eye witnesses who say that the little girl evidently did not see 
the machine coming and rushed into it and that the driver was unable 
to avoid the collision. Mr. and Mrs. Massman exonerate Mr. Miller. 
The funeral was held this morning. The sympathy of the community 
will be extended to the parents and to Mr. Miller. 
Labor day a year ago witnessed the tragedy at the Two Rivers crossing 
of the Northwestern in which four met death in an automobile accident 
when their car was run down by a train.

of twenty-four hours. Mr. Mayerl's death is believed to have been 
due to ptomaine poisoning, resulting from something he had eaten.
News of the death of Mr. Mayerl was a great surprise and shock. 
He had been at his work at the coffee house of the Rahr Sons co. 
Monday and was in apparent health but Tuesday morning complained 
of illness and his condition became rapidly worse during the day. 
At 10 o'clock last night he became unconscious and never rallied, 
passing away at 7 this morning. Two physicians were in constant 
attendance upon Mr. Mayerl Monday night but nothing could be done 
to save his life.
Mr. Mayerl was 47 years of age, having been born in Germany, 
October 28, 1865. At the age of two years he was brought here by 
his parents, the family locating on a farm in Franklin. Mr. Mayerl 
has resided in the city for some time and was well and favorably 
known to many friends.
Mr. Mayerl is survived by a widow and three children, Mrs. Jos. 
Simon, of Dubuque, Ia., Miss Nettie and George of this city. Four 
brothers and one sister also survive Joseph and Anna Mayerl of 
Portland, Ore., Frank of Franklin, Henry of Antigo and William 
of Lena.
A man of sturdy character Mr. Mayerl was respected by all who 
knew him. Funeral services will be held Saturday.
