ST. MARTIN, MAXIM Maxim St. Marten(sic), an old resident of the county, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Wm. Elliot, in Two Creeks, at the age of 95 years. His wife, who was said to be 103 years of age, died about a month ago. Some of the old residents of Two Creeks claim Mr. St. Marten was 107 years old, but this is doubted. About ten years ago Mr. St. Marten put out one of his eyes while working in his garden and about two months ago he put out the other eye in exactly the same way. He suffered much pain from his eye during the last few weeks of his life and, no doubt, his death was hastened thereby. The funeral was held at Two Rivers Monday. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, November 1, 1899 P.2 ******** Death on Fri. of one of the oldest men in our county, Maxim St. Martin in the home of his daughter Mrs. Elliott in Two Creeks. It is said he was 107, which is way too much, although surely he is above 93 but not over 97. He wouldn't give his age. While working in his garden several years ago, he somehow was poked in the eye and lost the sight in that eye. His wife died of old age several weeks ago.

Mr. Savage was buried under the debris with one of the heavy cans, filled with milk, pinioning him to the ground and he was unconscious when found. The runaway occurred as Mr. Savage was leaving his farmyard for the cheese factory. The horse tore from the wagon and at first it was not known whether Mr. Savage has been in the rig or not.

SCHAEFER, PHILIP SUICIDE. Philip Schaefer, who last spring was committed to the county jail to await trial for adultery, was last Thursday night found dead in the woods in the town of Cato near the Pine Grove Saloon. He was not kept closely confined in the jail and made his escape some days before his death. He called at the saloon near which his body was found, treated a number of persons who were present, bade them good bye and said they would never see them again. His body was in an advanced stage of decomposition when found. In his pocket was found a quantity of Paris Green and there can be no doubt that his death was premeditated by him and resulted from taking the poison with which he had supplied himself. There were no marks of violence about his person except on the breast from which the clothes were torn. This was doubtless done while in the agony of death. He was buried at the Branch on Saturday. The girl with whom he had criminal intercourse lives at Two Rivers and was fully as guilty as he. In fact, the law was too stern in poor Schaeffer's case and his suicide shows that he keenly felt the shame which came from his son "having found him out." Manitowoc Pilot, August 22, 1878 P. 3

SCHAFFT, JOSEPH GIVEN NO WARNING Death Summons Came to Joseph Schafft as he Labored. NEARLY 75 YEARS OF AGE. Engaged In Building a Fence when He Suddenly Fell to the Ground-Never Regained Consciousness. Suddenly, and without warning, the Death Angel came to Joseph Schafft yesterday and called from its earthly mission the spirit of an aged and respected citizen. He died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Matt Ruguskey, Nineteenth and Washington streets, at 2 o'clock as a result of appoplexy. Mr. Schafft arose early yesterday morning and was about his house as usual. He attended services at church in the morning and upon his return was working about the place. About 11 o'clock he started to build a fence about a lot he owned on Marshall street between Nineteenth and Twentieth. About an hour later he was found in an unconscious condition, and friends picked him up and carried him to the home of his daughter. Medical aid was summoned and every effort made to revive him. It proved of no avail and at 2 o'clock he quietly breathed his last, never having regained consciousness. Deceased was born in Germany March 4, 1825, and came to America in early life. In 1872 he removed to this city, where he has since resided. He was a man highly respected by all who knew him. An aged wife and one daughter survive to mourn his loss. The funeral will be held at 9 o'clock to-morrow from the home of his daughter. Manitowoc Daily Herald, May 4, 1899 P.1

SCHARF, HENRY From Der Nord Westen, 14 Feb. 1901: Henry Scharf, who died of typhus in Manila, was not from Brillion as we had earlier reported, but was a son of Mr. Wilhelm Scharf of Rockland. His parents were quite upset when he decided to join the regular army, but the desire for adventure was too strong and he wouldn't listen to them. ********* GAVE HIS LIFE IN HUMANITY'S CAUSE Another Manitowoc County Boy Numbered With the Soldier Dead in the Philippines Henry Scharf, Rockland. Dies From Disease While Serving in Co. H, Third Reg. - Enlisted in 1898 - Roll of Honor of County Has Seven Names Another Manitowoc county boy has yielded up his life in humanity's cause and is now numbered with the soldier dead in the far-away Philippines, Henry Scharf, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Scharf, of Rockland, having died at Manila January 30, of typhoid fever. The first news of the demise of their son came to the parents in the published reports of death in the army under that date, and the investigations since made have no doubt as to the identity of the dead. Young Scharf had been in the service some considerable time, first with a Wyoming Volunteer company and later enlisting in the regular army, being assigned to Company H, Third Infantry, stationed near Manlia. The date of his last enlistment was December 1898 and since that time he had been in the field with his company. A few weeks previous to enlistment, Scharf, who had been in Wyoming visited his parents at Rockland, and stated his intention of entering the regular army. Objection was raised, and later persuasion, the young man apparently conceded to the wish of relatives and gave up the idea of enlisting. He left home ostentiously to resume work in Wyoming but in a few days it was learned that he had joined the regulars and was on his way to the Philippines. Days, weeks and months, passed with no word from the absent one until in November of last year, when a letter was received stating that he was ill of typhoid fever and then, following on January 30, the name appeared in the list of dead. No doubt exists in the minds of the parents as to the authenticity of the report, in-as-much as the regiment and company given are the same as those in which their son served. Communication has been opened with the authorities at Washington with a view to having the body returned here, and of ascertaining more complete details of the demise. Henry Scharf was 26 years of age and previous to his residence in Wyoming, was engaged with his father in farming, the elder Scharf being an extensive land holder in the town of Rockland. He was known in this city, through frequent visits and is spoken of as a young man of high character and exemplary habits. His untimely death will be deeply regretted by all with whom he has acquainted. The death of Scharf adds the seventh name to the roll of honor of Manitowoc county in the war for humanity. The list is made up as follows: William Hein, died at sea while on the return voyage from Porto(sp) Rico. Fred Schwalbe, died at Chickamauga of disease contracted in the army. Fred Engel, died in military camp at Charleston, of disease. Gustave Thronson, came home ill and died after long suffering from disease contracted in service. Emil Kuwalle, died at Holy Family Hospital from disease. Chas. Singlemann, killed in battle while serving in the Philippines. Brought here for burial.

Our informant writes: "Francis Schroeder, a Polander by birth, had a few unpleasant words with his wife on Saturday morning, the 23d inst., in regard to stacking some hay. He left her with the remark "she might be boss the rest of her life." went to the barn, took a large dose of arsenic which he kept there as medicine for horses, and laid down, where he was discovered about noon of the same day, in great agony. His wife asked him to go to the house, and also accused him of having taken poison. The former he refused to do, and the latter, denied, remaining in the barn, in the same condition until the next morning, when his wife persuaded him to go to the house. He consented, and with the assistance of his oldest son was conveyed thither. Medical assistance was summoned, but before help arrived the unfortunate man was dead. Mr. Schroeder was 42 years of age, and had been a resident of Mishicott for 20 years. He is spoken of as being an honest, industrious man, was well to do in the world, having a large farm, plenty of stock, &c. He leaves a wife and five children." I.P.S.

The particulars of this heart-rendering affair, as near as we can learn, are as follows: A small party of women and children procured a horse and wagon and went to Murphy's Mills to pick blackberries, and on their return home, the horse becoming unmanageable, one of the unfortunate women took the reins from the young man who was driving and advised the children to get out and walk. Shortly afterwards, and just as they got to the top of a hill, the horse began to run, and before they reached the bottom, the wagon struck a stump on the road side, throwing out the occupants, killing Mrs. Pautz instantly and injuring Mrs. Shanahan so badly that she lived but a short time. They were both old residents of this county and their friends have the sympathy of all who knew them. Manitowoc Pilot Thursday, September 12, 1912 pg. 1

SHERBERGER, ANDREAS Andreas Sherberger of this city died quite suddenly on Wednesday morning. He was married only three months ago and the suddenness of his death led to the holding of an inquest. LATER. - When arrangements were made for a post mortem examination Sherberger came to life again and put a stop to further proceedings. LATER. - He died again quite suddenly in the afternoon. There were suspicions of poisoning and his stomach was taken out when it was found to have been filled with embalming fluid after his death. - This will probably prevent an analysis being made, but it well certainly prevent him from coming to life a second time.

SIGMAN, DAVID Mr. David Sigman, age 81, passed away at Saddleback Community Hospital in Laguna Hills, California, February 1. born in Brest-Litovisk, Poland, at the age of three, he immigrated to the United States where he settled with his parents, Leo and Bessie Sigman at Two Rivers, Wisconsin. While attending the Two Rivers High School, he developed skills in oratory and debate. In a one year period, he and three of his brothers, each representing a different high school class, secured a state championship for oratory. David Sigman's love of a good political fight was enhanced by his meeting Bob LaFollette. While attending the University of Wisconsin, David campaigned and won a three term seat in the state assembly. His interest in politics and economics led him into the labor movement where he became AFL regional director for a five state area. Among his friends were the labor movement greats of the era, including William Green, the Reuther brothers and John L. Lewis. The American Jewish Committee asked him to form the National Labor Service whose function it was to discourage discrimination of minorities. This job he held for eight years. Following retirement from the labor movement, he joined his brother-in-law, Mr. Marshal Rotter in partnership in a hardware business. Again he worked at this job for eight years. Following what he thought was his final retirement, he was summoned to serve on several federal committees in Washington D.C. where he contributed to the writing of Social Security and Workman's Compensation laws. This led to another cause which was the welfare of Senior Citizens. Mr. Sigman was instrumental in forming the Allied Senior Citizen's Council, Project AWARE and was on the committee that established the first Senior Citizen's Center in the state of Wisconsin. He encouraged political activism as well as recreation. Survivors include his wife; Bernice (Rotter) Sigman; a daughter, Barbara Subeck of Fullerton, California; a son, Richard of Ottawa, Illinois, and three grandchildren. He was preceded in death by four brothers and two sisters. Memorials may be sent to the local Senior Citzen's Center. Manitowoc Herald Times, Mon., Feb. 9, 1987 page 15

SILSBEE, DANIEL B. DIED: SILSBEE-At Cato Falls, Feb. 6, 1872, after a long and painful illnes, Daniel B. Silsbee, in the 63d year of his age. He was concious to the last moment and often prayed for death to relieve him from pain. Mr. Silsbee was a kind husband and indulgent and loving father. And though he leaves a large circle of friends to mourn his loss, we feel that he has gone to a home where there is no sickness or death, and where we shall clasp hands soon, never more to part from loved ones gone before. Though there will be a vacant chair in the family circle, we comfort ourselves with the thought that he "Sleeps in Jesus" Blessed sleep.

SKENADORE, JIM FOUND DEAD ON ROADSIDE Jim Skenadore, an Indian, was found dead on the highway two miles north of Maple Grove early Friday morning. Ned Antone, another Indian, resident of the vicinity with whom Skenadore is said to have had frequent quarrel and with whom he is reported to have had a fight Thursday night, is detained at the county jail for questioning. Antone, who was taken into custody by Sheriff Beduhn, when he visited Maple Grove Friday morning in report of the finding of Skenadore body was found at his home under influence of liquor. Antone is badly marked up, his eyes blackened, his chin bruised and lip cut. His clothing was covered with blood. However, District Atty Meyer is included to the theory that Skenadore met death when struck by an automobile. The body of Skenadore was found a short distance from the driveway leading to the Eugene Sullivan farm in Maple Grove. Both legs were broken, a six inch gash cut in the thigh and a cut over the eyes. Dr. E.C. Cary of Reedsville, who was called after a boy had found the body at 5 o'clock in the morning, said that the man had probably been dead for five hours or more. The body was taken in charge by Sheriff Beduhn and Coroner Kemper, who visited the scene and later when District Atty Meyer also went to Maple Grove. An inquest was ordered to be held. Skenadore was about 51 years of age and married but it is said by the authorities that he had been separated from his wife for some time. He was engaged in farming and was well known. The inquest was held Monday afternoon. The verdict of the jury was: "Jim Skenadore came to his death on the night of April 26, 1928, in a manner unknown to us and that Nettie Antone is connected with his death in some manner also unknown to us." The jury was composed of John Mullens, Wm O'Hearn, Thomas Cavanaugh, Edward Lorrigan, Gerhardt Koehler and Elmer O'Hearn. It is probable that Antone will be placed under arrest today. Manitowoc Pilot, Thurs., May 3, 1928 ************ A formal charge of murder was lodged Monday against Ned Antone, Maple Grove Indian, held in connection with the death of Jim Skenadore. The charge is first degree murder. District Atty Meyer who had Antone detained when it was found that he was with Skenadore the night of his death, filed the information for the warrant. A coroner's jury held that Antone had knowledge of the death of Skenadore and was connected with it, but in what manner the jury did not state, being unable to determine. Testimony at the inquest was the basis of the verdict which while it failed as a formal indictment of Antone, is deemed by District Atty Meyer to warrant the arrest. Friends of Antone have retained Atty A.D.Strouf to defend the Indian. Antone is 51 years of age and says that his wife left him three years ago and now lives at Freedom, Wis. He admitted at the inquest living with the King woman the past two years. The man has served three years at Waupun for manslaughter for the death of John Hill, an Indian at Wittenberg. Manitowoc Pilot, Thurs., May 10, 1928 ************* HOLD INDIAN FOR TRIAL There was a preliminary examination Tuesday in municipal court in the action against Neddy Anton, charged with the murder of Jim Skenadore. Skenadore was Indian and the defendant is likewise, at least part Oneida. They have been working as farm hands as the inclination seized or as dire necessity compelled from time to time in the Maple Grove neighborhood. Skenadore was found dead some weeks ago, on the Maple Grove Franklin town line highway in front of the Thomas Sullivan farm residence. There were some signs of violence on the body and the coroner's jury were given some facts upon which they based a verdict to the effect that Anton had some connection with the death. At the hearing Tuesday, the state was represented by District Atty Ed. Meyer and the defendant by Attorney H.D. Strouf. The testimony for the state was about the same as at the inquest. The defendant put in no testimony and Anton was bound over for trial on the charge of murder. The case will probably come on at this term of circuit court opening next week.

SOENKSEN, HUGO Died - On Thursday, February 28, at his father's residence in Mishicott, Hugo Soenksen, aged 24 years, after a short illness. So has passed away a young man of more than usual promise in life. A character comparatively rare in these fast days was the deceased, quiet, unassuming in demeanor, strictly correct in his habits. A gentleman in his intercourse with others. Of strictest integrity in business. Young as he was he had laid the foundation of a character which time could not have failed to build up into the highest type of manhood. He was put about to start into business on his own account. Soon to have been married to the woman of his choice. The future seemed all fair before him when death blotted out all the bright and fair hopes built upon him. "The good die young, But they whose hears(sic) are dry as summer dust, Burn to the socket." An immense concourse of people gathered at the funeral on Sunday afternoon and testified by their presence to the respect and esteem in which the deceased was held and the sympathy felt for the afflicted ones.

In about an hour or so after, he expired. Manitowoc Tribune - Tues., Sept. 4, 1879

SORENSON, CAPT. JOHN LOST ON THE SEA BIRD Information Relative to the Citizens of Manitowoc who were Victims of the Late Disaster. Thirty-One Persons Lost. In fulfilling the painful duty which devolves upon us at this time we have endeavored to present to our readers a correct report containing all the information in regard to the lost which we could obtain. We fear there will be some errors, but we have as far as possible obtained the statements of relatives or immediate friends of the deceased. We would that some other hand than ours--one better skilled in soothing afflicted hearts--might perform the sad office of saying comforting words to the distressed of our Village, but it may not be and we can only say to those who suffer, you have our heartfelt sympathy--and the sympathy of every person in Manitowoc. We have known your friends, respected them, loved them; and your loss is our loss. Let us hope that He who doeth all things well hath not permitted our friends to fall in vain. CAPT. JOHN SORENSON Was also a native of Norway, and a sailor in youth. Two years before coming here--which was in 1849--he was wrecked on the Atlantic and came near being lost, was picked up by an English vessel and brought to American shores. After coming here he sailed the schooner Teaser for a time and afterwards the schooner Shoyer. He was well acquainted with the ship carpenter's trade and in company with his brothers built the Walhalla at Green Bay. She was brought out in 1867 and the captain sailed her. This spring he sold her to W.H. Adams of Chicago, we believe, for $8,000. It was some business in connection with this sale which called him to Chicago. We saw him the morning he left, full of plans for the future and evidently thinking he had years of usefulness before him but his time had come; he left our shore for a port in that undiscovered country we know so little of. Capt. S. was well known and we do not hesitate to say was a good man, a fond husband and father, and a good citizen. He leaves a wife and two children, a girl of 9 and a boy of 7 years, with a home and some means. (Article continues in the same manner for each individual lost on the SEA BIRD; Geo. W. Emery, James A. Hodges, Capt. N.T.

We hear of others who were on the boat beyond a doubt--one a Norwegian who has been chopping wood in this vicinity, could not learn his name; and two girls from the country who took passage from here with the intention of going either to Milwaukee or Chicago have not been heard from since the disaster. So it will be seen there were Thirty-one from here certainly, and two doubtful, lost on the SEA BIRD.

SOUPANZI, TONY KILLED A MAN, DIDN'T KNOW IT An Italian Laborer at Grimms Line Kilns Quarry Strikes a Fellow Worker Over the Head and Kills Him Alleged Murderer Returns to Work not Knowing That he Had Killed a Man Tony Soupanzi, an Italian laborer at the Grimms lime Kiln was killed yesterday by a fellow worker named Nick Shupina. The two men became involved in a quarrel during which Shupina claims that Soupanzi struck him and struck him in the face. Shupina claims that he acted in self defense when he struck Soupanzi over the head with an iron bar. It is claimed that the two men were enemies of long standing and it appears that they became involved in an altercation immediately after returning to work after dinner. According to Shupina's statement, Soupanzi struck him in the face. This is substantiated by a gash in the man's face where he was struck. It appears that Shupina then struck Soupanzi with a bar crushing his skull. The two were alone when the quarrel occurred and no one saw the deed committed. Shupina returned to his work immediately having struck his comrade down and appears not to have been aware of the serious effect of his blow. Sheriff Cary and Deputy Puls were at once notified and immediately left for Grimms by team. Puls arrived first and took Shupina into custody and he was taken to this city to the county jail. Shupiina is unmarried but Soupanzi had a wife and family in Italy to whom he was sending money to have them come to America. A coroner's jury to view the remains of the murdered man was drawn today and will hold an inquest tomorrow. The members of the jury are Frank Walters, 4th Ward, Two Rivers; Chas Wallechlaeger, 3rd Ward, city; Fred Massman, Two Creeks, Chas Kunz, 2nd Ward, City; Sam Rouiller, Mishicot and Fred Schech, 3rd Ward, city.

STUEBER, FRED AGED WHITELAW MAN FOUND DEAD IN HIS HOME, VICTIM OF POISON AT HIS OWN HANDS Grief over the death of his wife several months ago, coupled with worry over business affairs which he had been unable to handle and which had resulted in appointment of a guardian for him, is believed to have prompted Fred Steuber, an aged Whitelaw man, to take his own life. Stueber was found dead in his home yesterday, a victim of poison, self administered. Stueber had mixed a quantity of paris green in an earthen bowl and drank a portion of the mixture. The unfortunate man was found seated at the table in his home by neighbors who investigated when Stueber failed to visit his unusual haunts for several days. The man was last seen Friday afternoon and it is believed that he had been dead since Friday night or Saturday morning. No inquest was held, District Attorney Brady and Coroner Falge after investigating deciding that there was no need of an inquest, the evidence of suicide being complete. Stueber was 65 and had resided at Whitelaw for years, being a mason by trade. He was the owner of a small home and an acre of land which he had disposed of following the death of his wife, but there was some difficulty over the deed and a guardian had been named for Stueber and the ? was to have come up at the next term of court. It is believed that worry over this, coupled with grief over the death of his wife prompted the suicide. Mr. Stueber is survived by no immediate relatives, though step children of a former wife survive him. The burial will be held at Whitelaw. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Tuesday, May 29, 1917, Page 1

JOSEPH SVOBODA TWO MANITOWOC COUNTY BOYS HAVE MADE SUPREME SACRIFICE FOR COUNTRY— GIVE UP LIFE Name of Sergt. John Singer, Who Left Here With Co. H., in Casualty Lists, Death Due to Disease—Joseph Svoboda Dies Over There And News Received Two more Manitowoc County boys have made the supreme sacrifice for their country—given their lives. The name of Sergeant John Singer of this city appears in the casualty lists forwarded from “over there” by General Pershing on Saturday and confirmation of the death of the Manitowoc boy was contained in messages received from the war department by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alex Singer, the same day. Simultaneously with the news of the death of Serg. Singer, Mrs. Anna Swoboda who has been spending the winter at Huntington, W. Va., arrived here and brought the news of the death of her son, Joseph Swoboda, who was a member of the U.S. regulars, Swoboda’s death occurred some time ago and his mother was notified at Huntington where she was staying. It is presumed he was killed in action. News of the death of Sergt. Singer spread over the city Saturday night and caused sorrow to a large circle of friends. He was with Co. H in the border campaign and later left here with the command when it was mobilized at Camp Douglas preparatory to being sent to the European front. Singer’s death was due to pleuro-pneumonia and occurred at one of the base hospitals in France. No other details are known. Mr. Singer is one of the first Manitowoc boys to die “over there” and while he was not killed in active battle his memory will be revered, none the less as one of the brave heroes of the nation. Familiarly known as “Happy Jack” the local soldier boy was one of the most popular in his command. Previous to his enlistment and departure he had been employed with the Rathsack Sons’ Co. in this city. During the time Co. H was on the Mexican border, he was an assistant to the cook of the company and a brother, Alex Singer, left here with the command as a cook. It is not expected that the body of the Manitowoc boy will be sent home for burial at this time. His parents reside on Columbus street. Sensational rumors were circulated Saturday night that six Co. H boys had met death in the battle on the western front but the reports are untrue, as it is not believed that Co. H has yet reached the firing line.

SWEENEY, BERT From Der Nord Westen, 24 Sept. 1908: Details describing the injury to Bert Sweeney from Green Bay, a brakeman on the Northwestern Railroad, received in an accident Monday noon between the Maribel and Francis Creek stations.

SWENSEN, ALBERT (an article about his house) A Cobble Stone House With a deep ravine to the right, and hills to the rear as a setting, Mr. Swensen has constructed a beautiful home patterned after the English-Norman type of the fifteenth century, built of cobble stones taken from the basement, and which fits so well into the picture that it looks as if he had grown it there. Even the trees that grew there naturally seem to fit into the scheme of landscaping. When he started excavating for the cellar of this house he found so many beautiful cobble stones of such diverse colors that he decided to construct the house of them, and the effect is so absolutely in keeping with the ruggedness of the surrounding landscape, that all who chance to pass on the Calumet road toward Valders, marvel at its beauty. There are seven rooms and a bath in the house. The kitchen is finished in tile, and is one of the best equipped of its kind and leads directly into the dinnette, which in turn leads into the living room. One must sit in this room for a while and study it to really appreciate it. Along one side is a large fireplace built of cobble stones. To the left of this in a corner stands a grandfather clock, the works of which were brought to this country by his grandfather on his mother's side, Arne Asberg, in 1852. Mr. Swensen designed and built the case for the works, patterning it after the old Norwegian type of hall clock. Next to the fireplace stands an old spinning wheel which his mother brought over from Norway and which she used for many years. Music Came Natural Music came natural-to Albert Swensen, being one of the direct descendants of Johann Svendsen, one of the foremost musicians of Norway in his day. His grandfather (missing piece) Buys 40 Acres Mr. Swensen had his eye on the piece of rough land not far from his home- stead for many years before buying it. That deep ravine and stoney hills suited his idea of natural scenery, so in 1926 he purchased forty acres which included what his neighbors considered some of the most worthless land in the community. It was while he was excavating for the cellar that he hit upon the idea of building the house of cobble stones. He had his own ideas of how he wanted the house and supervised the building of the house from the time it started until the last stone was in place. Among the stones dug up was one which took the shape of a skull of some antediluvian creature that is supposed to have roamed the country before the flood. This stone was used in the construction of the fireplace upstairs as the central figure in the chimney above the firebox. Stones of many colors may be found in this fireplace, and each was selected by Mr. Swensen because it fitted into his particular idea of what it should look like when completed. Wild Game Preserve There are ten pairs of Silver Foxes on the place, nearly every breed of rabbit known to the domestic world, purebred Angora cats, and a high egg producing strain of White Leghorn chickens known as the Ta?????. He has a team of horses and three Jersey cattle. He has fenced off the ravine so that no stock can get to it, hoping, he says, to keep it in the wild state. A driveway laid up with stones leads to the basement of his house from the rear where he keeps his car. The landscaping has just begun about the place, he says, and plans to make new additions in the near future until he has it completed the way he wants it. (No newspaper named and no date) (Possibly in #25)
