ERNIS HILDEBRAND   cemetery #89D

CHILD DIES, AFTER EATING PILLS FOR CANDY
TWO RIVERS, July 18 - Irvin Hildebrand, aged 3, son of Andrew Hildebrand 
of Route 3, Two Rivers died on Monday after eating pills he found in the 
home. The father of the child was at work in the barn when the little 
fellow came running to him. The child was in agony and could not speak. 
The father attempted to revive him by giving him milk and water but the 
little fellow could not swallow and Dr. Farrell was summoned. Later the 
child was taken to the doctor's office where everything possible was done 
to save his life, but the strong drug contained in the pills had poisoned 
the child and he died at nine o'clock. The unfortunate little boy is 
survived by his parents, six brothers and four sisters, the oldest being 
19 and the youngest 2 years. The funeral will be held Thursday from St. 
Luke's church.

There was general sorrow in our city on Sun. when news arrived of 
the death of Fritz Hinrichs. As is generally known, Mr. Hinrichs 
had a foot terribly mutilated several years ago in a hunting accident. 
Doctors recommended an amputation of the big toe, following which the 
wound still failed to heal so 2 more toes had to be amputated. The 
wound still wouldn’t heal and as a result of the last operation, Mr. 
Hinrichs had to be cared for in the local Holy Family Hospital and 
the doctors recommended a complete amputation. Mr. Hinrichs went to 
Milwaukee to consult specialists who also expressed the opinion that 
a full amputation was necessary, so he underwent the operation Thurs. 
morning in Passavant Hospital in Milwaukee. It appeared that the 
patient was saved, but death intervened Sun. morning. Fritz Hinrichs 
was born 53 yrs. ago in Esens, East-Friesland. After leaving school 
he studied pharmacy and served in the military as a one-year volunteer 
in France where he then worked for several years in a large perfume 
store. In 1878 he came to America as a representative of that company. 
He lived in several states and in the winter of 1882-83 came to Manitowoc 
and began working in the drugstore of his brother, Henry Hinrichs. 
Since then he remained a resident of Manitowoc. He was widely known as 
a capable pharmacist. During Pres. Cleveland’s 2nd term, he filled the

Hittner: At his home in this city, June 19th, 1892, of heart
failure, Henry M. Hittner, M.D., aged 51 years.
Dr. Hittner, whose sudden death so startled the city last Sunday
morning, was one of our best and most enterprising citizens and
was a very popular and successful physician. He came to Mishicott
about twelve years ago and for a few years made that village his
home, where he owned a handsome residence, but a few years ago he
built a Sanitarium in this city and since its completion has 
spent the greater portion of his time here.  He was born in 
Bavaria, April 28th, 1841. In early life he came to this country
and settled at Cincinnati, where he studied and practiced 
medicine. During the War he served in Army hospitals as assistant
surgeon and attendant.  He leaves a wife, two sons and four
daughters. His son James is a practicing physician at Seymour,
and his other son, Henry, is pursuing the study of medicine. His
daughters are all trained musicians and two of them, Maggie and
Katie, hold professional engagements in New York. His oldest
daughter, Mrs. Lukow, is a resident of St. Paul, and his youngest,
Bertha, is a student in our High School.
The funeral takes place tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. He was a
Mason and will be buried with the usual Masonic rites. He was 
also a member of the Order of Herman Sons and his brethren of 
that order will act as a guard of honor.
