gentle and lovable 1t was these
traits that drew to him the friendships
which he enjoyed and gave him the
many positions of trust which he held
during his life time. He was thor
oughly conversant with municipal and
county government; was an expert il
probate law and was often consulted
in such matters, which advice he gave
freely and without cost. He was a
great lover of nature and above all,
wanted TO do good, to add to the
worlds light and be of help to others.
In this he did vastly more than the
average man in the three score years
and ten of his life and he has left be-
hind him lasting monument in the
good he has accomplished for human
ity. The people of Wausau sincerely
mourn with the immediate family and
relatives, the death of this esteemed
citizen.
Judge Miller was born in Hesse
Darmstadt, Germany, February 10,
1S49, and received common school
education in his native country, where
he remained on the family farm until
fifteen years of age; then his school
days terminated and he entered the
employ of a wholesale house as book
Keeper, remaining in the service for
four years. Meanwhile his father
died, in 1866, and in 1868, a youth of
nineteen. he came to the United
States, and resided for four years at
Belfast, Allegheny county, n. Y,
where he engaged in farming. He
came to Wausau in 1872 and from
that time to 1877 he taught school for
six terms and for a time was editor
of the Waechter am Wisconsin, week
ly German newspaper founded in the
interest of the Greenback Party. In
1875. however. he was elected to the
office of Clerk of the city of Wausau
and served three successive terms in
that capacity. He was elected to the
H;iice of County CLERK in Novemt err
1878, anG served four terms in that
important position. In 1886 he was
elected to the assembly and was Il val
liable and active representative of The
people in Wisconsin's highest legis-
lative body. In 1887, while attending
t. his legislative duties in Madison
he was elected supervisor of the Sc.
cOnd Ward of the city of Wausau
| and held this office for two erms
During his service as supervisor he

Board
From 1888 to 1892 Judge Miller was

who begin their fortunes where their
fathers left off, leave off where their
fathers began, and somebody has tru-
Nv said the inherited wealth, in
stead of prompting to further acqui-
sition. is a title-deed to sloth." The
difficulties, hardships and trials of
life, the obstacles one encounters on
the road to fortune, are positive bles-
sings, and all this was demonstrated
in the life of Judge Miller, who from
the toling, struggling farmer boy,
mounted we'll up on the ladder of sue
cess.
At one time on being asked what
words of advice and counsel he would
give to the ambitious young man who
earnestly sought success, the judge
said: well. l regard stability Of
character and patience under defeat
indispensable; then be honest and
truthful and prompt at the post OF
duty. Don't be always looking for
new positions; be courteous to every
body. The boy who will impress these
things on his mind and make daily
use of them will not fail. They ought
to bring him success" This was the
spirit, the keynote of his success.
He was an honored member of For
est Lodge, No. 1870, F. & A. M; Wau-
sau Chapter, No. 81, r. A. NJ, and st.
Omer Commandery No 10, K. T. He
was also a member of Druids and
Sons of Herman and at one time was
Grand Master of the latter order.
In August 1872, Judge Miller was
united in marriage with Miss Helen A.
Mathews, at Friendship, Allegheny
county, N. Y, who survives as do
three sons, Harry L. Miller of Allen
town, Pa, Leon C. Miller of Cudahy,
