A. X. Merrill, Esq, will regret to learn
that he is about to leave us and take
up his residence, for time at least, at
Waukegan, ILL., Manitowoc could not
lose and Waukegan could not gain a
better or more upright and faithful
citizen, and we are sure that his many
friends whom he is about to leave be-
hind will regret his absence, and while
they will wish him success and pros
perity in his new home, will neyerthe-
less hope that he may return and rest
satisfied to dwell with and be one of
them once again.

OBITUARY

"fns'' over the name of Albert
Schuette. The news shocked the city
Monday morning for few outside of tn,
family and the Schuette business in
terests knew that he was i'll. In the
past year or two heavy toll has been
eXacted of Manitowoc. Among the
men prominent in business and public
affairs of the city who have lately left
us there are Judge Cratic, DR.. Falge
Fred Schuette, Thomas Torrison, and
| William Rahr. And now, with hardly
a warning, death beckonS to this fine
young man to join them and the ever
recurrent why2 persists in our
thought.
| Albert Schuette was born here As
years ago. He graduated from local
schools and took his LIB. degree in
the Civic Historic course at the Uni
! versity of Wisconsin in 1895. Since
then he has been connected with the
Schuette store, the last year as presi-
dent OF the company. He is survived
by his wife, formerly Annie Henscher,
and son Donald who is student at
the University, his mother and four
sisters, Mrs. II. l.. Banzhaff of Mil
waukee, Mrs. c. f. Reinfried, Mrs.
Stanley Eckel and Miss Florence
ochuette of this city. The funeral,
held from the home on North Thir-
teenth street yesterday, was in charge
of the Masonic order, of which he was
a member. He was also a member of
the Elks and was an officer in the
patriotic, wartime order of the 10y
atty Legion. He never held public of
flee except as member of the city
Board of Education.
The friends of Albert Schuette paus-
ing to think how to briefly describe
him would inevitably try to picture a
combination of sterling character,
pleasing, personal charms, untiring in
dustry, and old-fashioned homely, do
mestic virtues. He was schooled from
birth in the Schuette tradition of hon
est merchandising that was his fathers
gospel, and he was a worthy successor.
although fate made the succession
brief. The thought that came to most
acquaintance Monday morning when
the ill tidings spread was not the loss
to the city, or to the local business and
social circles, though these losses are
material and VIII be long afelt;~s but
rather the poignant grief at the final
parting with a friend. One of our best
young men has left us, one the com
munity can i'll afford to lose. To the
family and the city the Pilot tenders
its sincere sympathy.
John Last, aged 81, died on Tuesday
at the home of his son John, in the
town of Two Creeks. Deceased was
born in Germany and came to this
country in 1854 and has since that year
made his home in the town of Two
Greeks. He was a good man and was
highly respected by his neighbors and
friends. He is survived by ten child
ren. The funeral was held on Friday
from the Lutheran church at Two
Greeks and interment took place at
Maack'S cemetery The Two Rivers
Chronicle.
