FICK, MINNIE A sad accident, which caused the death of Mrs. Peter Fick of Louis Corners, occurred on highway 32, four miles east of Kiel, Sunday morning at about 10:30, while she was on her way to church. The Ford coupe which she was driving, and a Chevrolet touring car driven by Paul Albrecht, and also occupied by Alvin Voss, both of Meeme, collided. Mrs. Fick was traveling south on the town road and Mr. Albrecht was going west on highway 32. When she came near the crossing of the highway, Mrs. Fick stopped to let off her grandson, Walter Bub, and she had driven half way across the intersection when the rear wheel of her car was struck by the Chevrolet, which came over the top of the hill. The young men did not see Mrs. Fick until it was too late to avoid the accident. The crossing cannot be seen before reaching the top of the hill. Mrs. Fick was thrown against the door of her coupe by the force of the impact which caused it to open and permit her to be thrown out of the car. Her feet caught in the door and she was dragged over the ground when the car swung around, striking her head on a stone. Physicians from Kiel and Manitowoc authorities were called while Mrs. Fick was taken to the farm home of John Voss, Jr., where she died a short time later. A coroner?s jury, which was drawn Monday, and will be called on to fix the blame for the death of Mrs. Fick, consists of the following: Rud. Greve, Geo. Meyer, Erwin Boeselager, Edgar Burkhardt, Alb. Wagenknecht, and C. A. Wallman. Monday afternoon they were taken by Sheriff Ed. Kasten to view the remains of Mrs. Fick at the Meiselwitz undertaking parlors, and from there they went to the spot where the accident occurred. They also viewed the two wrecked cars that were in the accident. The inquest will be held Monday afternoon at 2 o?clock at the court house at Manitowoc. Arthur Bub, another grandson of Mrs. Fick, who was also in the car, was not injured. The deceased, nee Minnie Faber, was born in the town of Wayne, Washington county, 54 years ago, on Aug. 16, 1872. Her marriage to Mr. Fick took place 33 years ago. Only a short time ago they sold their store and saloon in Millhome and moved to Howards Grove, from where they came to Louis Corners, having purchased the general store of Haarman & Livingston. Mrs. Fick is survived by her husband, two daughters, Mrs. Erdman Reichert of this city, and Mrs. Walter Bub of Louis Corners; two brothers, Philip Faber of Milwaukee, and Charles of Roseman; and two sisters, Mrs. Albert Krueger of Theresa, and Mrs. John Phils of Sheboygan Falls.

FLYNN, PATRICK The subject of the subjoined clipping from the Manitowoc Pilot is the father of Capt. James Flynn, of this city: Patrick Flynn died at his home in this city on Saturday last at the advanced age of 88 years. He was born in Ireland in the stirring period of 1798, but came to America while quite young. He settled in Two Creeks when that town numbered but few inhabitants and the ?Flynn homestead? was a pleasant place for neighbors to congregate, and even the traveler often enjoyed the hospitality of the generous family. Mr. Flynn was always a man of great physical strength and his exceptionally good habits brought him a green old age. He was a man of superior intelligence and his love for history was almost intense in its earnestness. No other topic of conversation gave him more pleasure and when in the company of persons whom he thought conversant with historical matters he always sought to increase his store of knowledge. Some years ago he sold his farm in Two Creeks and took up his residence in Two Rivers. Later he lived in Manitowoc. He was the father of a large family, Mrs. B.H.M [illegible, possibly Muesch] of this city, is one of his daughters. His funeral took place on Monday.

FORTIER, MRS. NELSON Mrs. N. Fortier died at her home in Oconto on Saturday morning last. About three weeks ago Mrs. Fortier was prostrated with a severe attack of diarrhea, and for a period of nearly a fortnight her case wore a very serious aspect. A little over a week ago she showed signs of recovery and so fast did she appear to regain her health that her mother, who nursed her in her sickness, thinking that her daughter was out of all danger and would soon be well, came home last Thursday evening. But the hopeful appearances proved deceptive. The hand of Death was upon her, but was stayed for a moment. And at an early hour last Saturday morning her spirit winged its flight to that region from whence no traveler returns. Mrs. Fortier was a young woman not over 25 or 26 years of age. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. Craite of this town. She was married to Nelson Fortier about five years ago, since when she has lived in Oconto. She was a very amiable lady and was endeared to all who knew her. She leaves a husband and an infant child to mourn her departure, besides a large number of relatives and friends. Her funeral occurred yesterday and was attended by a number of her relatives from this town. Manitowoc Co. Chronicle (Two Rivers), Mar. 2, 1886

GEYER, GEORGE RIVER CLAIMS BOY AS VICTIM George Geyer, 14, Loses Life When Canoe Was Capsized Sunday Alone on a canoe on the river when the boat overturned Georgie Geyer, a North Side boy, aged 14,, was claimed as a victim of the water, Sunday afternoon, the body of the lad being recovered by the police in dragging the river after the accident.

An alarm was sounded and the police responded with grappling hooks and after a few minutes search, brought the body to shore where a physician was summoned and everyone and everything possible done in efforts to revive the lad, but to no avail. The dead boy is a son of John Geyer, proprietor of the Lake House, the former Peterik hotel on Buffalo Street and the body was removed to the home.

GREGORY, FLORENCE d. September 23, 1928 FATALLY BURNED Mrs. Frank Gregory of Valders died Tuesday at the Holy Family hospital from bad burns she received the day before at her home. She had put kerosene on kindling in the furnace. When she opened the feed door to see how the fire was doing, a burst of flame enveloped her and she ran upstairs a living torch. A visitor, Mrs. Shaw of Manitowoc, extinguished the flames and she had medical attention soon. It was apparent that she had small chance to survive the terrible searing of her head and body. Until a physician arrived after the burning, Mrs. Gregory, long a physician's wife, calmly gave directions for her own care although in terrible agony. Her husband is seriously ill at Tacoma, Washington, where he has been on a visit. Mrs. Gregory was born at Waupaca, Wis., 56 years ago and has resided for the past 15 years at Valders where her husband practiced medicine. She is survived by her husband, a son, Dr. Lawrence Gregory of Valders and two daughters, Mrs. Edgar W. Witzel of Manitowoc and Miss Jeanette, a student at the University of Wisconsin. The funeral was held this morning from the residence of Dr. Shaw here with interment at Sturgeon Bay, her former home. Mrs. Gregory was a woman of character, refinement and charm, highly respected among a wide acquaintance.
