De nth of John VI. ScHuIS.

A telegram received here by his friends
last Friday forenoon brought the sad
and startling intelligence of the death,
only a few hours before, of our towns
man, John H. Schulz, at Easton, Penn
sylvania, Of paralysis of the brain. Mr..
Schulz in company with Prof. F. w.
Notz, of the Northwestern University,
left this city on pleasure trip Wednes-
day, August Sd, intending to be absent
about month. They reached the home
of friend in the country near Easton,
last Thursday after visiting New York,
Baltimore, Washington and other places.
Mr.. Schulz was apparently in good
health when he retired to rest Thursday
night but had not been in bed long when
he was taken with an epileptic fit which
he had been subject to for several years
This attack, however, passed away and he
fell into quiet sleep when it was sup
posed all danger had passed. Prof Notz,
who was rooming with him, arose Fri
day morning and proceeded to dress.
While doing so he approached Mr..
Schulz's bedside when he discovered that
his pulse was not beating, respira-
ton gone, although the body was yet
warm, and some drops of blood oozing
from the mouth. A physician was
summoned who pronounced Mr.. Schulz
dead.
The deceased was born in Ofenbach,
Hesse Darmstadt, in 1874 and emigrated
to the United States in 1854. He came
to Watertown from Milwaukee 16 years
ago and since 1867 has carried on
the business of druggist and pharmacist
in the store in the old Basford block occu-
pied by him at the time. of his death.
He was a thoroughly reliable business
man and by carefulness. and enterprise
had accumulated considerable property.
In his social intercourse Mr.. Schulz was
pleasant and agreeable and both in society
and business circles no man will be more
missed from the community. For about
years Mr.. Schulz has not been in the
enjoyment of robust health and conse-
quently within this period was not .able
to give as close attention to business as
before. In 1869 Mr. Schulz was
married to Miss Bertha Lueder, who sur
wives him to mourn the loss of kind and
affectionate husband. Mr.. Schulz leaves
no children. The body of the deceased
arrived here Monday morning, the funer-
al being held in the afternoon from the
Lutheran Church, Rev. Mr.. Brockman,
officiating, and the remains laid away to
rest in Oak Hill Cemetery.
