Another returned soldier is First Class Private Leo Mahnke 
of Two Rivers who was also stationed at Camp Lee. He was a member of the 
U.S. Veterinary training school. But for an injury to his knee in August 
last, he would have had his chance overseas. The injury was slow to mend, 
however, and it kept him from leaving with his contingent. “Horses” said 
Mahnke, “are a drug on the market in the east now. I saw whole bunches of 
them being sold for as little as $65 each at Camp Lee last week. The 
government has no further use for either horses or mules and they are being 
sacrificed to get rid of them. I saw several horses in good condition sold 
for $25 each.”

Malley had removed the plunger from the metal pot to clean it and had cooled 
it in a pail of water, and the, before the plunger had dried, placed it back 
in the metal pot. There was an explosion and Malley's face was burned. Particles
of metal got into the eyes and it was first thought that the sight would be
destroyed. Physicians removed the metal and it is said his eyes will not be
affected.

about 4:15 p.m. grappling hooks from the duck engaged the body of the 
youth.
The high school sophomore was a member of the boys glee club, the 
school chorus and the Madrigal group. Photography was his hobby. He 
was interested in conservation and helped the local chapter of the 
Manitowoc County Fish and Game Protective Assn in several projects.

WALTER S. MARVIN

TWO RIVERS MAN DIES OF GUN WOUNDS
WALTER MARVIN TO BE BURIED ON TUESDAY
Manufacturer Found With Fatal Wound in Body At His Home, Survives Only 24 Hours
After lingering for 24 hours at the municipal hospital in Two Rivers, Walter S. 
Marvin, 44, manager of the Metalware Corporation there and leader in civic and 
fraternal life of Two Rivers passed away at 4:30 Sunday afternoon of a bullet 
wound. He was found in the bedroom of his home, late Saturday afternoon, shot 
through the body with a small rifle and removed at once to the hospital. The 
.22 calibre bullet entered his lung and septic pneumonia developed a few hours 
later, and caused his death. Friends believe the tragedy may have been due to 
accident as no cause for self injury, aside from health is known.
Funeral services for Mr. Marvin will be held Tuesday afternoon at two, from the 
Grace Congregational church with burial at Forest View cemetery, with the Masonic 
order in charge of the services at the grave. The body will be at the church 
tomorrow morning from 10 to 12 for those wishing to view the remains.
Suffered Nervous Breakdown
The tragedy cast a pall of sorrow among the hosts of friends of Mr. Marvin, not 
only in Two Rivers, but in Manitowoc where he was well known. He had never 
recovered his health from an influenza attack a year ago, which was followed by 
a nervous breakdown and it was to this condition that Dr. Zlatnik the attending 
physician, attributed the tragedy.
The deceased was an old time resident of Two Rivers who left there twenty years 
ago, built up a place for himself in the business world and returned three years 
ago to become associated with the Metalware Corporation, manufacturers of 
electrical toys and electricl appliances. He always took an interest in civic 
affairs, was a member of the transportation commission there, a director of the 
Lakeside Country club and of the Two Rivers Chapter of the Red Cross, president 
of the Two Rivers Shrine club and a member of the Rotary club.
Took First Position at Two Rivers
Walter Sykes Marvin was born at Mauston, Wis., December 16, 1887, the son of 
Judson L. and Mary Sykes Marvin. He received his early education in the schools 
of Mauston and after his graduation from high school there graduated from the 
Wisconsin Business University at La Crosse. Mr. Marvin's first position was in 
Two Rivers, as a bookkeeper at the Hamilton Manufacturing Company, where he made 
rapid advancement. He came to Two Rivers in 1908, and remained with the Hamilton 
company until 1911, when he left to take charge of an aluminum plant which had 
been organized in his home town. In 1913 the aluminum plant at Mauston was sold, 
and Mr. Marvin accepted an offer from the Burgess Battery company at Madison, 
which remained his home for the next six years.
In 1919 Mr. Marvin became connected with the French battery company of Madison, 
and was sent east to take charge of their eastern branch at Newark, N.J., where 
he remained until 1923. In that year he was transferred to Chicago in charge of 
sales for the French company, a position he held until in 1926 he became connected 
with the Metalware Corporation.
At first in charge of sales in the Chicago offices of the Metalware company, the 
following year Mr. Marvin was brought to Two Rivers to take general charge of the 
business and plant. His energetic efforts rapidly expanded the company's business, 
adding new lines in the way of electrical toys and appliances, and under his 
management the company made substantial progress.
Leaves Wife and Son
Mr. Marvin was married January 25, 1910, to Miss Emma Frenz of Two Rivers and 
their only child, Howard Leslie Marvin was born in this city and graduated from 
the Washington high school there with the class of 1930.
Besides his widow and son, Mr. Marvin is survived by his father, Judson L. Marvin 
of Mauston, and by two sisters, Mrs. W.G.B. Schroeder of Mauston and Mrs. P.A. 
Briggs of Madison.
Mr. Marvin was a member of Park Lodge and Chapter of the Masonic order in Chicago, 
and of the Manitowoc Council and Commandery. He was a thirty-second degree 
initiate of the Milwaukee Consistory and a member of Tripoli Temple of the Mystic 
Shrine. He was also a member of the Order of Elks and a Woodman.
