was born in the town of Schleswig, August 22, 1860; after 
leaving school he learned the harnessmaker’s trade, and 
established himself in business in Kiel in 1884. On March 9, 
1886, he was married to Anna Goettinger of New York City. This

OLIVER ASLACKSON   cemetery #44

From Der Nord Westen, 18 Aug. 1904: 
A terrible accident occurred yesterday afternoon at the intersection 
of State and 8th Streets. Elderly Oliver Aslakson was crossing the 
street but because of his age had lost his hearing and so was unable 
to discern the approaching streetcar. The motorman was unable to see 
the old man until it was too late because the car was coming around 
the corner. Therefore, Aslakson was hit head-on by the fast moving 
streetcar. Naturally the old man was knocked down and dragged some 
distance before the car could be stopped. It is reported that his 
chest was crushed, his head badly injured and both legs broken. Death 
must have occurred in the blink of an eye. A coroner’s inquest will be 
held today to determine the degree of the motorman’s responsibility.
*********
From Der Nord Westen, 25 Aug. 1904:
The coroner’s jury, which was considering last week’s accident in which 
Oliver Aslaksen lost his life, decided that the streetcar company was 
not responsible; however, the so-called fenders on the streetcar were 
not aligned as they should have been.
