ANNE NAGLE

Anna Nagle, lifelong resident of the county, and sister of John Nagle, 
distinguished editor and educator, who died in 1900, died suddenly 
Sunday morning at the home, 718 North Eight street.
Although in recent years she suffered from failure of physical powers 
natural to her age, Miss Nagle had not been seriously ill. She arose 
as usual Sunday morning, had breakfast and appeared to be in her usual 
condition. Without warning she collapsed and died.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday at 2 p.m. from the Wattawa, 
Urbanek and Schiel funeral home. Burial will be in Evergreen cemetery. 
The body will lie in state at the funeral home and can be viewed from 
7 p.m. today until the hour of the funeral. 
Miss Nagle was born in Meeme and came to this city at an early age. She 
taught in the seventh and eighth grades of the north side schools for 
25 years, beginning in the seventies when the present Madison school on 
State street was a new building.
After retirement from the teaching profession she resided at the home 
of her brother-in-law, the late Judge Michael Kirwan,and since his death 
lived with her nieces, Mrs. Catherine Hogan and Miss Emma Kirwan.
As a teacher, Miss Nagle evidenced many of the traits of her brother, 
John Nagle. In her time she was known for scholarship, thoroughness and 
teaching ability. She always enjoyed the confidence of her school boards, 
respect of her fellow teachers and the affection of a quarter of a 
century of students who passed through her grades.
Up to the end her mind was clear. She evinced a keen interest in public 
affairs and to her death could, and did, comment on public questions with 
discernment and judgement.
Survivors are two sisters, Mrs. Jane Mulloy of Omaha, Neb., and Mrs. 
Elizabeth Broderick of this city.
The body may be viewed at the funeral home.

JOHN NAGLE

With deep sadness we must report that John Nagle, the editor and publisher 
of the Manitowoc Pilot, died yesterday evening in the local hospital of 
typhus which turned into pneumonia. We will tell more of his life in a later 
issue but we did not want this issue to greet the world without expressing 
our deep sadness.
Der Nord Westen, 15 Mar. 1900
**********
From the Files of the Pilot – 30 Years Ago – (1900)
At just before six o'clock last evening, John Nagle, for the last twenty-two 
years the editor of the Pilot, passed away at the Holy Family Hospital after an 
illness of about one week. He had returned a short time before from a trip in the 
south and was unwell during the last days of his journey. The germs of typhoid 
were undoubtedly implanted in his system during his absence and last week Wednesday 
he was obliged to take to his bed.
His interest in Manitowoc was deep and he devoted much time to advancing the 
fortunes of his home city. He was probably more widely known throughout the city 
and county than anyone who has ever resided here. His nearest surviving relatives 
are his aged father and six sisters, Mrs. Kirwan, Mrs. Ryan, Mrs. Broderick and 
Miss Annie Nagle of Manitowoc, Mrs. Mulloy of Nebraska and Mrs. Baringer of Michigan. 
At the time before the Pilot must go to press is very short, nothing adequate can 
be written concerning Mr. Nagle's life and character for insertion in this issue.
Manitowoc Pilot, Thurs., Mar. 27, 1930
**********
Here are some further facts about the life of John Nagle whose death we 
reported in a previous issue. He was born 04 July 1848 in St. Catharine, 
Ontario, and came to Town Meeme during the ‘50’s as a small boy with his 
parents. He attended the public schools of our county which our older 
residents well knew to be pretty bad. The boy was curious and what he 
didn’t learn in school he learned through his own energetic self-education.
He eventually became a teacher himself and was recognized as one of the best 
educators in our state. He helped establish schools in Sauk City and Two 
Rivers. In 1877, in partnership with Mr. E. Borcherdt, he bought the local 
“Pilot” and directed its publication. In 1888 he became sole owner of the 
newspaper. (Article goes into detail about his journalistic skills, dedication 
to the cause of education, leadership role in the Democratic Party, and tenure 
service as County Superintendent of Schools. ) His funeral was conducted Sat. 
afternoon from the home of his brother-in-law, Judge Kirwan. Manitowoc has never 
seen so many vehicles in a funeral procession. The ceremonies were conducted by 
the local Masonic Lodge of which the deceased was a member for many years. Pastor 
Gray of the Episcopal Church, Chaplain of the Lodge, delivered the funeral 
oration. The Knights of Pythias Lodge, of which Mr. Nagle was also a member, 
participated at the graveside. Honorary Pallbearers were Messrs. William Rahr, 
M.H. Murphy, Henry Hinrichs, H. Vits, Thomas Torrison, And Fritz Schuette. Active 
Pallbearers were Messrs. J.S. Vilas, W.A. Walker, A.J. Schmitz, M.H. Haney, 
Julius Lindstedt, and Captain Timothy Kelley. John Nagle is survived by his 
sorrowing father and 6 sisters.

WILL OF JOHN NAGLE
His Estate Valued at $20,000 is Divided Among Relatives
Manitowoc Wis., April 25 - The will of the late John Nagle was admitted to
probate this afternoon. The estate will probably amount to $20,000, and is
divided as follows: Judge M. Kirwan, a brother-in-law, is given all books,
pamphlets, etcl, consisting of Mr. Nagle's private library. Legacies are 
left to sisters and to nephews and nieces in sums varying from $250 to
$1000 to the total amount $4500. The bulk of the estate, amounting to

A NEW DEAL.
SHORT BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES OF THE OFFICERS WHO WERE SWORN IN YESTERDAY.
JOHN NAGLE, COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT.
Mr. Nagle was born in Canada, but soon removed to Meeme, Manitowoc County. He 
is self-educated, having never attended anything but a county school. He has 
taught in Sauck (sic) City, Two Rivers and other places throughout the county. 
When he quit teaching, he entered upon the study of law. On the death of T.G. 
Olmstead, he took charge of the Pilot, which afterwards absorbed the Tribune. 
In the spring of 1880, he was appointed County Superintendent, Mr. Viebahn 
having resigned. Last fall he was elected, after as bitter a political fight 
as ever occurred in this county. As an editor Mr. Nagle is acknowledged as a 
graceful and clean writer; as an educator, he has a state reputation and 
undoubtedly will keep the schools of our county up to their present excellent 
standard.

MICHAEL NAIDL

525 in U.S. Die Over Labor Day Week End
Two County Men Are Victims of Road Accidents
Hungerford of Quarry and Naidl of Cato Are Struck by Two Autos
Two highway fatalities were recorded in Manitowoc county over the 
Labor Day week end, both victims being struck as they stood or 
walked along highways into the path of oncoming cars.
The dead:
Harry Hungerford, 42, of Quarry. (photo)
Michael J. Naidl, 46, of Cato. (photo)
Coroner Theodore Teitgen, who was called to both crashes-one late 
Saturday night and the other Sunday evening-said inquests will be 
held.
Hungerford, father of three chidlren, was fatally injured as he 
stood talking on highway 151 with an unknown motorist in the 
driveway of the Oscar Ullness farm, a mile and a half west of 
Silver Lake.
He was hit by a car driven by Leo R. Schroeder, of 736 North Seventh 
street, according to traffic officer Henry Pleuss and deputy Andrew 
Balog, who were called. Schroeder siad he was blinded by the lights 
of the parked car on the shoulder of the road. Hungerford's car was 
parked partly in the Ullness driveway while the stranger's auto was 
close by. The impact from the Schroeder car crushed Hungerford 
between the two other cars. He suffered a fractured skull and compound 
fractures of both legs and died at 9 o'clock Sunday morning at the Holy 
Family hospital.
Motorist Drives Away
Coroner Teitgen said that in the confusion following the accident the 
unknown motorest got in his car and drove toward Manitowoc and his 
identity was not learned.
Officers learned that Hungerford had taken his daughter, (private), 
and girl friend to a dance at English lake early Saturday evening and 
had promised to pick them up at 11:30. The accident, according to the 
traffic officers, occurred at 11:45.
Mr. Schroeder was accompanied by his wife and Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Lewis 
of 1318 South 18th street. They were enroute for a short trip into the 
country at the time.
Michael J. Naidl of Cato, a veteran of World War II, was struck and 
killed as he walked across highway 10, a short distace (sic) west of 
the junction with highway 148, in Cato, at 9:15 Sunday evening, according 
to officer Henry Pleuss and deputy Andrew Balog. The driver of the car, 
(private), 21, of route 1, Cato, who was westbound, said his view was 
blinded by the light of an eastbound automobile and he did not see Naidl 
until almost upon his (sic). The latter suffered a fractured skull.
Passenger is Cut
(private), 21, of Cato, riding with Schuh, suffered lacerations of the 
arm, when the sudden stopping of the Schuh care hurled him against the 
windshield.
Coroner Teitgen said that (private), driving a car ahead of the Schuh 
car, said he noticed Naidl crossing the highway but was able to swerve 
to one side and avoided hitting him. However Naidl was caught by the 
Schuh car, following behind the Kelley vehicle.
The two deaths over the week end brought to 12 the number of traffic 
fatalities in the county so far in 1949.

EDWIN GATES NASH    (d. 1934)

Edwin Gates Nash, Veteran Lawyer, Dies At 78 
FUNERAL WILL BE CONDUCTED ON WEDNESDAY 
Father of De Molay Order In Wisconsin Suffered Heart Attack Five Weeks Ago 
Edwin Gates Nash, senior member of the firm of Nash and Nash, oldest law firm 
in Manitowoc, and a practicing attorney here for nearly 60 years, died this 
morning at the home, 628 North Eighth street. He was 78.
Mr. Nash, prominent for years in fraternal and lodge circles in Manitowoc, and 
founder of the De Molay, the junior order of Masonry in Wisconsin, had been 
seriously ill for the past five weeks. He suffered a heart attack after reaching 
his home from the office on Sept. 22 and since then was confined to his bed.
Funeral services, under Masonic auspices, will be held at the Masonic Temple, 
Chicago street, Wednesday at 2 p.m. Interment will be at Evergreen cemetery.
Mr. Nash began the practice of law in Manitowoc in 1877 and became a member of 
the firm established 62 years ago by his older brother, the late Lyman J. Nash. 
While never holding public office, except for one term as city attorney in 
1887-88, Mr. Nash was always active in community life and held many private 
positions of responsibility.
Born in 1856.
E.G. Nash was born May 9, 1856 at Rock Prairie, near Janesville. His parents, 
Mr. and Mrs. Francis Nash, moved to the Wisconsin farm in Rock county from New 
York state in 1850. He was the youngest member of a family of six sons and a 
daughter and was the last survivor.
The deceased obtained his early education in Rock county and came to Manitowoc 
in 1875. His older brother, the late Lyman J. Nash, opened a law office here 
62 years ago and another brother, the late William F. Nash, established the 
Weekly Chronicle at Two Rivers.
Early in life, Mr. Nash took up the study of law in the offices of Nash and 
Schmitz. In the June term of circuit court in 1877 he was admitted to the bar 
and formed a partnership with his brother under the name of Nash and Nash.
When younger, Mr. Nash was an ardent baseball fan and also actively engaged 
in playing with teams in the city. In later life his advice was often sought 
by those sponsoring league baseball teams in Manitowoc and he was always a 
contributor to organization plans in the years that Manitowoc enrolled clubs 
in league competition.
Active As Mason 
Mr. Nash’s interest in baseball continued down the years and despite the fact 
that he was confined to his bed Mr. Nash evidenced interest in the recent world 
series.
Mr. Nash was active in Masonic circles for more than half a century. He took 
his first degree in the Blue lodge in this city Aug. 17, 1881 and his second 
and third degrees shortly after. He occupied at various times practically all 
the offices of the lodge and was elected and reelected master of the lodge. 
Shortly after affiliating with the Blue lodge he became interested in Royal 
Arch Masonry and joined the local chapter. For many years he was head of the 
chapter as its high priest.
Later Mr. Nash was active in the work of the grand chapter of the Masonic order 
in Wisconsin and 10 years ago was elected to head the grand chapter as its grand 
high priest. He also took all the Scottish Rite degrees up to the 32nd in the 
Wisconsin Consistory. He was a member of the Manitowoc Commandery of the Knights 
of Templar. 
De Molay Launched 
While attending the annual session of the grand chapter of Royal Arch Masons at 
Asheville, N.C., in 1921 Mr. Nash became interested in the De Molay order. Upon 
his return home he saw the possibilities of such an order in the state. He 
appointed a committee to investigate and on their favorable report the De Molay 
order was formally launched in Wisconsin.
At the state meeting of the De Molay order in Manitowoc two years ago special 
tribute was paid to “Dad” Nash by several hundred members of the junior order 
here for the convention. He had the degree of Legion of Honor conferred on him.
Mr. Nash was a member of the Kiwanis club, serving as its head at one time, a 
charter member of the Lakeside Country club and at one time president of the 
club, member of the Manitowoc County Bar association, which he also headed for 
several terms, and a member of the Elks club. In his Kiwanis work Mr. Nash was 
active in the club sponsorship of 4-H club activities in the county.
Although Mr. Nash became interested, as a stockholder, in a number of manufact-
uring plants both in this city and Two Rivers, his business pursuits were 
practically confined to the practice of law. He was a member of the bar of the 
fourth judicial circuit, of the state supreme court and also the federal courts.
Was Republican 
In politics the deceased was a lifelong republican. While he never sought a 
political office he was sent as a delegate from Wisconsin to the republican 
national convention which nominated William McKinley president in 1900.
Mr. Nash was married in this city April 20, 1881 to Euphemia Luling, the daughter 
of the late Charles Luling. In April, 1931, Mr. and Mrs. Nash observed their 
golden wedding anniversary with a trip to Naperville, Ill., the birthplace of 
Mrs. Nash.
Survivors are his widow, and one son, Edwin Luling Nash, associated with the 
Lindstedt-Hoffman company in this city.
The body may be viewed at the Masonic Temple on Wednesday up to the hour of 
the funeral.

LIEUT. F.J. NASH LANDS AT NEW YORK, SERVED WITH FRENCH
Lieut. Francis J. Nash of this city who has been serving with the 
French artillery since his return to Europe a few months ago after 
a visit here at home has reached New York on his way home. A message 
received in the city this morning announced the landing of Lieut. 
Nash in New York. He is expected within ten days. Lieut. Nash was 
unable to leave France when his brother, Major A.L. Nash sailed for 
the states, though the two were together in Paris for a time. Lieut. 
Nash had no received his discharge from service with the French 
artillery but secured it a few days later and immediately sailed. 
Whether he joined Major Nash at New York is not known the message 
from the two were from the same hotel. Due to the fact that it will 
not be necessary for Lieut. Nash to wait for discharge here, he may 
be home as soon as Major Nash. Previous to his service with the French 
artillery Lieut. Nash served for a year with the American Ambulance 
corps in France and Italy and it was while in Italy that he received 
a commission as lieutenant in the Italian army. Lieut. Nash visited 
here some months ago when he was relieved of duty with the ambulance 
corps and later returned to Europe and sought enlistment with the 
American forces and later in the French army. While here on his previous 
visit he addressed two mass meetings at which pictures he had taken in 
the battle front were shown.

LYMAN JUNIUS NASH

DEATH COMES TO LYMAN J. NASH VETERAN ATTORNEY DIES AT HOME HERE
Deceased Prominent in Public Life of State; Resident Here 60 Years; 
Burial on Tuesday
Lyman Junius Nash is dead. (Photo) The end came at his residence 
on Michigan avenue in this city at 8 o'clock Sunday morning from 
infirmities attending old age. His death brings to an end a long 
and useful life. For some time before he passed away he and his 
family as well as his intimate friends, knew that the end was not 
far distant. Yet he faced the inevitable with the courage of a 
soldier, and with the composure of mind he displayed in preparing 
an important case for trial. It is not possible within the limits 
of a newspaper notice of his death to give any adequate expression 
of his splendid character or the detail the achievements of his 
long and successful career as a lawyer. That will be done at other 
times by those better able to give utterance to his character and 
to his achievements.
He was born at Shelby, Orleans county, New York, January 18, 1845, 
and at the time of his death was 85 years of age. He came from 
Revoluntionary stock, and with his father and his father's family 
came to Wisconsin early in 1851, where his father settled on a farm 
near Janesville in Rock county. It was on the old homestead then 
acquired that Mr. Nash spent the days of his boyhood and early 
manhood. While on the farm, he enjoyed the educational advantages 
afforded by the old-fashioned country school district system, a 
system which has not yet been excelled and which produced some of 
the ablest men in this state. While enjoying these educational 
advantages, he qualified himself to become a teacher under that 
system and several years was a teacher in the neighboring school 
districts and hamlets. In 1866 he entered Lawrence University, now 
Lawrence College, and graduated with honors in June, 1870, having 
been selected as the valedictorian of his class. In the fall of that 
year he came to Manitowoc, and for two years was principal of the 
north side graded school, and from the time of his coming here in 
the autumn of 1870 until his death, he continuously resided in this 
city, a period of almost sixty years.
He had a fine mind, and he continued the training of it long after 
he had received his college degrees. He was a student of the best 
literature, which he read and enjoyed almost to the very day of his 
death.
Decides to Follow Law
While in college, and even before going to college, he had determined 
to follow the practice of law as his life work, and after his two years 
service in the public schools of this city and after an intensive 
preparation for this chosen profession on December 12, 1872, he passed 
the examination then required to become a lawyer and was admitted to 
the bar. He formed a connection with Ellery B. Treat, then a lawyer of 
this city, and immediately began practice. He exhibited marked ability 
in work entrusted to him and clients were not wanting. The firm of Treat 
and Nash continued until May 1, 1874, when he entered into a partnership 
with of O.F.A. Green, which lasted only until Decmeber of the same year, 
when it was terminated by the removal of Mr. Green to Colorado. In 
October 1875, he formed a partnership with A.J. Schmitz, now of Milwaukee, 
under the firm name of Nash & Schmitz. That firm had a very large and 
lucrative practice, and continued until January 1, 1881, when the 
partnership was dissolved by mutual consent. He then formed a partnership 
with his younger brother Edwin G. Nash, under the firm name of Nash and 
Nash, which firm, with some changes in the personnel of its members, has 
been in continuous existence since its formation, a period of nearly 50 
years. Probably no firm of attorneys in the state has had a longer 
existence.
Judge Anders, in his Pioneer Courts and Lawyers of Manitowoc, said of Mr. 
Nash, "From the day he first entered the profession, L.J. Nash had been 
eminently a trial lawyer. Beginning as we all did with general practice, 
time developed for him a more special practice of business law. But he 
was not merely a good tier of cases. All his life he had been a constant 
and thorough student of the fundamental principles of the law. He is not 
a mere case lawyer. With him, precedents have value only as they sustain 
and illustrate principles. Hence, while as a trial lawyer he is good 
before a jury, he is better still in argument before a court."
Counsel in Many Important Cases
Mr. Nash, from the time of his admission to the bar, until his death wore 
the harness of a lawyer. While some of his public positions which he held 
took him out of the trial of cases in court, his actual work in such 
services was the work of a lawyer. His practice as a lawyer extended 
beyond the limits of his own county,

Mr. Nash married Emma A. Guyles on Sept. 2, 1873. Mrs. Nash and three children 
survive. The children are A.L. Nash of this city and Mrs. Kirby B. (Alice) White 
and Francis J. Nash, both of Detroit. The home was a fine example of what an 
American home can be where love, accord, dignity and real democracy ruled.
Space could be used without profit in attempting to put in words, a description 
of L.J. Nash's character and worth and it could be summed up in the words of the 
proverb writer of Israel, who long ago wrote; “Happy is the man that gettith 
understanding; length of days in her right hand and on her left hand riches and 
honor.”
Mr. Nash's civic sympathies and activities were marked, always inspired by a fine 
conception of the public good, while his interest in politics always had for its 
object what is believed to be sound governmental practices. He was a Democrat, 
devoted to Democratic principles and observant of party “regularity” his influence 
being exerted considerably for the betterment of his party, while his party was 
proud of his cooperation and respectful of his counsel. His name will abide on the 
honored list of eminent and distinguished men of Manitowoc. 
The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon with services both at the home and at 
Evergreen Cemetery in charge of Rev. William Wiso, pastor of St. Paul's M.E. Church. 
The eulogy by Mr. Wilson was unusually eloquent and moving. The bar of the county 
attended in a body and there were representative lawyers present from Chilton, 
Sheboygan, Madison, Milwaukee and doubtless from other cities. Pallbearers were 
Walter Clark, Archie Rankin and Jack Nash of this city, Lyman Nash and Leslie 
Lehrman of Two Rivers and Lyman White, a grandson of Detroit.

Since the last report a portion of the Klingholz farm, lately purchased by the 
asylum has been set aside for a cemetery for the interment of those inmates 
dying, and unclaimed by relatives or friends.
Under the humane management of Supt. Drews the patients are made as comfortable 
as possible under the circumstances. The systematic running of the farm 
furnishes an abundance of meat and vegetables, enough and to spare.
To Mrs. Drews, the matron, praise is due for the efficient care of the kitchen 
and the preparation of plenty of plain but nourishing food.
The many years of service the attendants have been employed testifies to their 
efficiency and trustworthiness in the care of the unfortunates.
And lastly too much praise can not be bestowed to the trustees for the 
painstaking manner of the performance devolving upon them.
For these various reasons our county asylum is ever acknowledged as one of the 
best in the state.
Respectfully submitted. Louis Falge, M.D.
Upon motion of Mr. Gennrich, the report was adopted unanimously upon roll call.

MICHAEL L. NAUMANN

Car Plunges Into Lake, Killing Two From Manitowoc
MANITOWOC-The bodies of a young Manitowoc couple, whom friends said were out 
seeking a place for their wedding reception, were found Thursday in Grotegut 
Lake about 10 miles south of Manitowoc. Their car had plunged into the 
artificial lake sometime Sunday.
The deaths of Michael Naumann, 21, of 913A S. 14th St. and his fiancee, Geraldine 
Noskowiak, 20, of 1010 Flambeau St., brought Wisconsin's 1967 highway toll to 370, 
compared with 371 on this date a year ago.
Manitowoc County authorities said the bodies were discovered by Ervin Stock of 
Newton, when Stock was driving on the Ival Grotegut farm driveway and happened 
to see the two bodies floating in the lake, County Traffic Dept. was notified at 
4:07 p.m. Thursday.
Aerial Protruded
Eugene Springstube, a sheriff's deputy, donned diving gear and hooked a chain to 
the car, which was then towed out of the lake by a wrecker.
Only about eight inches of the car aerial protruded above the surface, Sgt. Ervin 
Elfner, county traffic officer, said.
"We felt that they must have tried to get out, and that's the reason the bodies
rose to the surface," Sergeant Elfner said in reporting that the right rear door 
was open.
The sheriff's department was informed by Naumann's father at 2 p.m. Monday that 
the couple was missing. The two were last seen Sunday evening. Naumann's watch had 
stopped at 6:07 p.m.
Traffic police said the car crossed to the left side of the town road, near Newton, 
jumped a ditch and skidded into the lake which is about 14 feet deep and an acre in 
size.

Mr. Naumann was born July 20, 1945, son of Elmer and Viola Sprang Naumann. He was

(sic) and from Lincoln High School in 1963 where he played football his junior year.

LINDA (OWART) NEBEL

Despondent Mother Dies In Lake Michigan
MRS. A. NEBEL WORRIED OVER LOSS OF WORK
Unemployment of Husband Is Blamed For Decision To End Her Life
Mrs. Adam Nebel, Jr., 30, mother of a four-month-old babe, despondent because 
her hsuband had been unable to find steady employment for over a year, left her 
home, in an upper flat at 701 Franklin street shortly before midnight Sunday 
and ended her life by drowning herself in Lake Michigan.
The body, washed up on the beach, was discovered shortly after ten o'clock this 
morning by Clifford Ducharme, 17, of 814 Franklin street, a high school student 
who was running along the beach as part of his training execises as a member of 
the high school track squad.
The finding of the body ended a search that had been started at midnight by the 
police, sheriff's office and relatives when the distracted husband awoke to find 
his wife missing. He said that he feared his wife had suffered a nervous breakdown 
and had wondered away. This morning dragging operations were started along the 
river at the foot of South Ninth street, and calls had been sent out to neighboring 
cities, giving a description of Mrs. Nebel. Later in the morning the finding of the 
fully clothed body along the beach ended the search and disclose the nature of the 
tragedy.
Mother Killed
Mrs. Nebel, whose maiden name was Linda Owart, was the daughter of Charles Owart, 
Manitowoc painting contractor who lost his wife a year ago on March 28, when the 
car in which he was returning to Manitowoc from Loomis, Wis., was side-swiped by 
a long motor trailer and was ditched. Mrs. Owart received injuries from which she 
died in a Green Bay hospital a few hours later.
The Owart daughter was married to Adam Nebel of Two Rivers, two years ago. The couple 
lived for a year at Waukegan, after their marriage. They then returned to this city 
to make their home.
Nebel was unfortunate in being out of work for over a year. He had tramped the city 
and at Two Rivers in search of employment but was not successful. Four months ago a 
son, (Private), was born. Mr. Nebel told authorities that he feared his wife was on 
the verge of a nervous breakdown and had watched her closely the past few weks (sic). 
Last Saturday he secured temporary employment that kept him at work until four o'clock 
Sunday morning. He took a short rest and then, with his wife and child, went to spend 
the day with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Adam Nebel, Sr., at Two Rivers.
Wife Missing
They remained over for supper last night and returned to their home here shortly after 
nine o'clock. Nebel said he was fatigued and retired at once while his wife attended 
to preparing the baby for the night. Nebel dozed off and on awakening around midnight 
noticed that his wife was not in bed, only the child being there. Alarmed he searched 
the house but found that his wife's clothing that she had worn yesterday on the trip 
to Two Rivers was also missing. 
He notified the police and sheriff's office and all agencies joined in a search about 
the city, as it was believed that Mrs. Nebel (Continured on Page 5)
MRS. A. NEBEL WORRIED OVER LOSS OF WORK (Continued from Page 1)
would be found wandering about the streets. When no trace of her was found at daylight, 
it was decided to begin a search of the waterfront.
When young Ducharme found the body on the beach he called the police department and 
Officer Charles Schmitt went to the scene. Examination failed to disclose any marks on 
the body. She was attired in a black slipon dress, black spring coat, black straw hat, 
and wore a small fur neckpiece. 
Waded Out
The authorities were at a loss to explain how the body could wash ashore so soon with 
offshore wind, if Mrs. Nebel walked out on the the pier and jumped into the lake, but 
there is also the possibility that she waded out from the shore beyond her depth.
The remains were removed to the Wattawa, Urbanek and Schlei funeral home and although 
Coroner Stueck was called in was announced that there would be no inquest as there was 
no evidence of foul play.
The mother of Mr. Nebel came down from Two Rivers early this morning and remained at 
home to care for the four-months-old infant while the husband went out to aid in the 
search for his wife. News of the finding of the body was first brought to the Nebel 
home by Officer Schmitt.
Mrs. Nebel was born here 30 years ago and was brought up in Manitowoc. She attended 
Lincoln high school and was on the honor roll in the 1919 class of Lincoln high school. 
Two years ago she married Adam Nebel, Jr., and after a year's residence at Waukegan 
returned to this city with her husband. They since resided here, moving to the upper 
flat on Franklin street a few months ago.
Was Worried
The father and brothers and sisters of Mrs. Nebel said that their daughter and sister 
had visited them frequetly in the past few weeks, and although discouraged at the 
failure of her husband to find steady employment, gave no intimation to them that she 
contemplated her act of last night. Mr. Nebel did say, however, that his wife had 
expressed concern over how they would be able to continue since the baby had come. For 
this reason he said he had watched her actions closely and had arranged to visit at the 
home of his parents at Two Rivers on Sunday in order to take the mind of his wife from 
the situation. They returned home last night and the wife gave no intimation that she 
intended to slip out of the house as soon as her husband dozed off.
Besides the husband and the infant son (Private), the deceased is survived by her father, 
Charles Owart, three sisters, Mrs. Herbert Tech, Erma and Leone, and three brothers, Walter, 
Carl and Leroy, all of Manitowoc.
Funeral arrangement were being completed this afternoon and will be announced tomorrow.
