CATHARINA VOGEL

Mrs. Catherine Vogel(sic), one of the pioners of the city, passed away at the 
home of her niece, Mrs. J. H. Newman, 1228 South Main Street at 8 o'clock this 
morning. She had been ill but a comparitively short time and her death was a 
severe shock to relatives. She had passed the three score and ten years allotted 
to humanity and was in her 77th year. Born in Germany in October, 1823, she came 
to this country with her father in 1852. A short time after their arrival she was 
married to Henry Vogel and they removed to this city. A peculiar coincidence is 
that her husband died just 16 years ago to the hour and in the same house where 
she passed away. No children blessed the union and after her husband's death she 
made her home with her niece. She was one of a family of eight children and her 
mother died while she was yet an infant.
Deceased was a woman of extra ordinary ability and was respected by a large circle 
of acquaintances. Of a quiet, retiring disposition she cared very little for the 
frivolities of life and her chief enjoyment was about the fireside of the family. 
The funeral will be held at the home Sunday at 2 o'clock.

BABE SCALDED BY HOT COFFEE
Earl Vogel, 3 Year Old West Side Boy, Not Badly Hurt
Earl Vogel, 3 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Vogel, Twentieth Street, was 
severely burned about the shoulder and arms as result of the overturning of a 
can of hot coffee which the child attempted to remove from the stove. The boy's 
burns are not serious and fortunately the hot fluid did not reach the face or 
eyes. Mrs. Vogel, mother of the boy, had left the room on an errand and the 
child was along at the time of the accident. The little fellow desirous of 
reaching the coffee attempted to reach the can and in so doing, the can was 
overturned and part of the contents thrown over the body striking the shoulder 
and arm. The flesh was seriously burned but physicians who were summoned say 
that the injury will not be serious and that no permanent scars will be caused. 
The youngster is a favorite in the neighborhood and the parents are besieged 
with inquiries as to his welfare.

Mrs. Daniel Vogel Called to Join Her Children in Eternal Sleep.
Death has again cast its pall over the saddened home of Daniel Vogel, 
the wife and mother having been summoned by the Grim Destroyer who 
within the past few years has claimed three children from the household. 
The death of Mrs. Vogel occurred at an early hour this morning following 
an illness that had its beginning at Christmas. No serious outcome was 
anticipated until with in the past few weeks, when the condition of the 
patient became alarming and for two days it has been apparent that 
death's hand could not be staid. Mrs. Vogel was 38 years of age and came 
here with her husband three years ago, Mr. Vogel being employed as 
principal at the Lutheran schools. Since the family removed to this city 
death has twice visited the home, each time claiming a child. Just 
previous to coming here another of the children died in Detroit.
The death of Mrs. Vogel will bring sorrow to many who knew and loved 
her and the pecuilarly sad circumstances of her demise will awaken the 
keenest sympathy for the bereaved husband, who with five small children 
survives. 
Funeral arrangements have not been made, but it is expected that the

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.

Death last week of the 1-yr. 1-mo. old son of Arthur Vogel, of pneumonia.
The family lives in Town Newton, about 5 miles from the city, and Mr. Vogel
drove into the city on Thurs. to get Dr. Frazer. On the way back home, about

**********
The death of Mrs. Anton Vogt, notice of which appears elsewhere in this paper, is 
a sad blow to her husband and a large circle of family friends, by whom she seems 
to have been regarded with more than ordinary affection. Numerous friends at Two 
Rivers, where she resided a number of years after her marriage, as well as at 
Manitowoc, will sincerely sympathize with the bereaved husband and family. We had 
not the pleasure of personal acquaintance with the deceased, but have known of her 
for the last nineteen year and know her worth by the universality of esteem in 
which she was held by all her intimate acquaintances. She was born in Prussia in 
1831, came to this country in 1855 and was married at Two Rivers in the fall of 
the same year. The strength of affection felt for her was attested by her brothers, 
John Althen, of Sycamore, Ill., and Casper, of Elgin, who, upon the first intimation 
of her dangerous illness, left their homes and their extensive business and hastened 
to her bedside, arriving on Tuesday last, two or three days before her decease. The 
funeral was attended by a large number of friends on Sunday last, the procession, 
we are informed, extended the length of four blocks. Had it not been for the extreme 
cold weather and the snow blockade, half of Two Rivers would have testified their 
respect for deceased and sincere sympathy with husband, children, relatives and 
friends, by swelling the numbers of those who shared in these last sad rites. As it 
was, a few, in spite of cold weather and almost impassable condition of the roads, 
were present from Two Rivers. She leaves, beside her husband, four children to mourn 
her loss.-T.R. Chrou.

ANTON VOGT   (d. 1911)

DEATH TAKES “UNCLE VOGT”, AGED 79 YEARS
Pioneer Furniture Man and Undertaker Goes to Final Rest
WAS ONE OF BEST KNOWN MEN OF CITY
Anton Vogt, familiarly known to the city as “Uncle Vogt,” a title by 
which he loved to be addressed, has finished with life and at the age 
of 79 today laid aside the burdens of a long, useful career to find 
solace in the sleep that knows to waking. Mr. Vogt’s death occurred 
at the home of City Treasurer Bruno Mueller on N. Ninth street where 
he had been cared for by his daughter Mrs. Mueller during the past six 
weeks of his last illness and the end was peaceful. For several days 
Mr. Vogt had been in an unconscious state and he failed to rally before 
death, earthly slumbers being merged into the deeper sleep of death, 
almost without notice by anxious watchers at the bedside. Mr. Vogt was 
born at Dornholzhausen, Prussia, November 24, 1832 and came to America 
as a youth of 23 in 1855, settling at Two Rivers where he was married 
in 1855. Mr. Vogt was employed at the Two Rivers shipyards which in 
that early day was engaged in building of boats for the lakes. Mr. Vogt 
remained at Two Rivers twelve years when he came to Manitowoc and 
established himself in business as a furniture dealer and undertaker, 
the store being in Leups block near the bridge of So. Eighth street and 
for thirty five years, Uncle Vogt was one of the best known businessmen 
of the city. Established in 1867, the Vogt store passed from control of 
Mr. Vogt in 1902 his retirement coming as result of advancing age which 
made it impossible for him to give attention to the business which it 
demanded. Since 1902 Mr. Vogt had lived in retirement but daily made his 
visit downtown where he was always assured of a warm greeting being 
widely known and of genial disposition that won him friends. 
Twice married, his first wife passed away in 1875, Mr. Vogt is survived 
by his widow and three children, one daughter, Mrs. B. Mueller and two 
sons, Henry of this city and Edward who is in the West. Mr. Vogt was a 
member of the Masonic Order, the Odd Fellows and of the Sons of Herman 
and was constant in his allegiance to the Orders attending meetings of 
the Odd Fellows up to within a few weeks of his last illness. Despite 
his advanced age Mr. Vogt enjoyed fair health up to a very recent time 
and was about the city as late as eight weeks ago. He made frequent 
visits at Elgin where he has a nephew who was a favorite with him and 
enjoyed life. His death will cause a pang of sorrow to many who knew him 
and remember him as a kindly old gentleman. The funeral will be held 
Sunday afternoon at 2 from the home of City Treasurer Bruno Mueller on 
North Ninth street with interment at Evergreen cemetery.
