SALAK, VICTOR From Caliene, Nevada, came the sad news last Wednesday that Victor Salak, a son of Charles Salak here, had died there as the result of a stroke. The deceased was born here 35 years ago and received his education here. He has lived in the west for many years. Der Nord Westen, 26 Dec., 1907 ***** Victor A. Salak Dies in West Manitowoc Boy's Body Will be Brought Home For Burial In City Victor Salak, a Manitowoc boy and son of Charles Salak of the Chas. Salak Co., is dead at Caliente, Nevada, the announcement having been received by the family in a message late Wednesday. The body will be brought to this city for burial and will probably arrive Monday and the funeral will be held at once. Nothing is known relative to the death of Mr. Salak except that the demise was caused by a stroke of paralysis which he suffered a few days ago. The first news was received by the family here in a dispatch Wednesday morning saying that Mr. Salak was seriously ill but there was no intimation that there was danger of death. Later in the day, a second dispatch reported the death and asked for directions as to the disposition that should be made of the body and request was forwarded for shipment of the remains to this city. Victor Salak was 35 years of age and his boyhood days were passed in this city where he attended school and was popular with his associates. As a young man he left Manitowoc and located at Green Bay where he was associated with the Britton Mfg. Co., as manager, retaining that position until three years ago when he left Green Bay to locate in the West and took up his residence first at Los Angeles and later at San Francisco, Cal. He had located to Caliente only recently and was progressing when suddenly overtaken by the fatal stroke and death. The funeral announcement will appear later. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Thurs., Dec. 19, 1907 ********* Body Buried in West Victor Salak, a Manitowoc man who died in Nevada last week, will not be brought here for burial the body having been buried in Nevada. The message was received by the family Saturday. Later the body may be removed to this city. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Mon., Dec. 23, 1907

SMALLEY, MRS. E.J. KANKAKEE PAPER TELLS OF DEATH Mrs. H. Smalley, Widow of the late E.J. Smalley Called to Final Rest There Kankakee, Ill. - Papers, copies of which have been received here convey to friends the news of the death of Mrs. H. Smalley, widow of the late E.J. Smalley and for twenty years a resident of this city. Mrs. Smalley's death occurred Dec. 10, at the home of her son in Kankakee and was due to paralysis which she suffered some time previously. Mrs. Smalley is well known in Manitowoc where she made her home until 1900. the funeral was held at Gibson City, Ill., and interment took place in that city. In mention of the death of Mrs. Smalley, the Kankakee Daily Gazette has the following: "Born July 13, 1833 in Perry, O., she removed with her husband, John Harnit to East Bend Township, Champaign County in 1858 taking up government land which is still in possession of the family. During the stirring scenes of the civil war, husband and wife were instrumental in helping many families of the "boys" at the front. Mr. Harnit died in 18?. Through the instrumentality of Mr. Harnit's masonic brothers, Mrs. Harnit was appointed post mistress at Ludlow, a position she held for 12 years and then resigned. Both husband and wife were active members of the Christian church and were educated at the denominational school of that faith at Hiram, O. Their union was blessed with three children, S.L. Harnit of Kankakee, John E. of Helper, Utah and Mrs. Hattie M. Webber of Ludlow, Ill., all of whom survive to mourn and revere the memory of their departed mother." "In 1885 deceased was married to E.J. Smalley, the pioneer plow manufacturer of Manitowoc, Wis., where the couple made their home until the death of Mr. Smalley in 1900, since which time Mrs. Smalley made her home with S.L. Harnit and Mrs. Webber. About three years ago Mrs. Smalley was stricken with paralysis but recovered to a large degree. Last winter on a visit to the South, a second stroke occurred which was the immediate cause of her death. "Mother" Smalley, as she was known to those who knew her best and loved her most, had a sunny disposition which reflected itself in her face and revealed itself in her life. It was her mission to carry gladness and light into afflicted homes and succor those in need. She loved flowers and they responded to her care by bring forth abundant blooms that found their way into sick rooms and brought comfort to the stricken ones. At Gibson City on Thursday, the earthly remains of "Mother" Smalley will be consigned to earth, but her deeds will live in the hearts and work out in the lives of many who knew her and to whom she administered."

SMITH, JAMES B. A letter received at Two Rivers yesterday from Milwaukee, states that Mr. James B. Smith, son of Mr. H.H. Smith of Two Rivers, had been found dead in the streets of Cincinnati.

She has the sympathy of the whole community in this her great bereavement. P.S.-Since the above was in type we have found the following dispatch in a Chicago paper. CINCINNATI, July 29.-The body of James B. Smith was found on the river bank, below the city, on Saturday. In the pockets of his clothing was found a five cent piece and a pawnbroker's certificate, showing the pawning of a gold watch and chain for sixteen dollars, with Barton Hill & Co., of Dubuque, Iowa, on the 18th inst.

SNIPPEN, JANE M. (KLETZIEN) Jane M. (Kletzien) Snippen, 66, passed away peacefully in her sleep June 18, 2010, from the complications of a six-year battle with ovarian cancer. She was born May 21, 1944, in Two Rivers, Wis. (Survivors omitted for privacy.) Jane was preceded in death by her mother, Albina (Rozmarynoski) Kletzien; and former husband, John Snippen. Jane graduated from Menasha High School, in Menasha, Wis., and went on to Wisconsin State Beauty College. She began working as a beautician and went on to have a wide and varied career, including owning a ceramic shop, working in retail and finally retiring from more than 10 years working as a bank teller for Union State Bank of West Salem, Wis. When she retired, she moved to Las Vegas to help in the care of her father. They have lived together and worked together on wood crafts for more than 13 years and have been a source of companionship and help to each other along the way. Jane was very talented and creative in all things, but had truly found her passion when she started dancing almost seven years ago. She loved to dance and all types were fun. Early on, her favorites were the East Coast Swing, Cha-Cha and Rhumba. As time and her disease progressed, she settled into some of the more elegant ballroom dances -- the Foxtrot, Tango and Waltz were some of her favorites of these. She and her partner, of four years, (private), have spent many many hours at dance classes and even more fun -- on the dance floor. They had been on many cruises and vacations and Jane truly was able to live her life to the fullest. In the true spirit of Jane, she celebrated and enjoyed every friendship, every moment and every memory. She will be fondly remembered, deeply loved and sadly missed by all of us who love her. There will be a memorial open house from 5-8 p.m. Thursday, June 24, at Jane's home. Las Vegas Review-Journal, June 20, 2010

SUMMITZ, REINHOLD (also SUMNITZ)\ Milwaukee Journal, May 15, 1899, pg. 2, col B Mysterious Disappearance Explained at Last Strange Tale Revealing the Downfall and Death Far Away from Home of a Manitowoc Man Manitowoc, Wis., May 15.- News has been received in this city of the death of Reinhold Summitz at San Antonio, Tex., on April 18, of consumption. The deceased left Manitowoc in February and nothing was known of his whereabouts until a letter was received by County Judge Anderson from the young man's father in Germany stating that he had just received a cable from San Antonio announcing his son's death. He requested Judge Anderson to investigate the affair for him. This Judge Anderson has done and his investigations have brought to light an interesting story. Reinhold Summitz was the nephew of August Summitz, who died a year ago in Maple Grove, this county, leaving an estate of about $10,000 to his only brother, Carl Summitz of Bischofsweerder, Germany. Reinhold acted as his father's agent in the settlement of the estate and his father allowed him to retain $4,500. This sum was paid him by the Manitowoc county court in February. This sudden acquisition of so much money proved to be the young man's ruin. He persisted in keeping it on his person, left his wife and baby, and started on a career of riotous living. He went to Milwaukee where he stopped at the Republican House and other hotels. He left Milwaukee and the next his friends heard of was his death. His last days were sad. Robbed of his money by a boy he befriended, he died among strangers on April 18. The following letter written to Judge Anderson by the physician who attended Summitz tells the story: San Antonio, Tex., May 9, '99- Judge J.S. Anderson, Manitowoc Wis.- Dear Sir: Your favor of May 2nd received. In reply will say that all papers that were in the possession of Mr. Sumnitz at his death were forwarded by me to Mr. Carl Sumnitz. There were a few papers and little of any importance. Have also written Mr. Sumnitz in full regarding the death of his son and an account of his being robbed and a recovery of a part of the money through the sheriff (John Campbell) of this county. I was called to see Mr. Sumnitz about the 27th of last March. He was stopping at the Glenarm, a small hotel, but a good one, here. He had with him a young man, Frank Clark, a former attendant in St. Paul's sanitarium, Dallas, Tex. This boy was not well and Reinhold brought him to San Antonio with him to look after his wants. The day after he reached this place I was called to see him and found him confined to his bed, a very sick man with pulmonary tuberculosis. After three or four days I found it necessary to employ a trained nurse and she and Clark were to divide the nights. About April 4th or 5th I was called to see Sumnitz about 3 o'clock in the morning and found him very much excited. I then learned that the boy Clark had left the house about 1 o'clock and had robbed Sumnitz of all his money, about $2,750. Three $500 packages, one $1,000 package and the balance loose. This was in an envelope in the inside vest pocket under Sumnitz' pillow. Sumnitz did not speak of any valuable papers being with the money. Two or three days later the boy Clark was captured in Taylor, Tex., and brought to this place. I carried him to Sumnitz the night he was brought here, but he would not tell what he had done with the money. About $700 was found on him. The next day he employed a lawyer, Nat Jones and he with a deputy sheriff went to the hiding place and found $660. By a contract made with Sumnitz they were to receive seven twenty-sevenths of money found. This left Sumnitz $489, which amount has been accounted for to Mr. Carl Sumnitz and a receipted bill sent to him with other papers. I am told that no more money has been recovered by Jones, but that he says he thinks that the boy has more hid and may give it up later. The boy (Clark) was tried about ten days ago and was given two years in the penitentiary. For any further information you might write to Sheriff John Campbell, or the prosecuting attorney, Carlos Bee. Sumnitz died on the 15th of April, in the third stage of consumption. Very respectfully, M.M. Elmenson. Mrs. Sumnitz and child are living with her parents on Wells street, Chicago. She knew nothing of her husband's whereabouts and first learned of his death from Judge Anderson.
