former residents of New Ulm, who
achieved prominence in public life in
Minneapolis and Minnesota. They

many of our readers, especially those
Of the older generation, were well ac-
quainted. q.
Titus Mareck Passes.
Last Wednesday, shortly after mid
night, Titus Mareck passed away at
his home in Crystal Bay, Minnetonka
District, after an illness lasting over
two months. He was practically con-
fined to his bed during the whole time.
He had a slight stroke about year ago,
from which he had, apparently, fully
recovered, until about two months ago,
when he suffered complete break
down.
Learned Printers Trade Here.
Deceased was born in Dubuque,
Iowa, July u, 1851, and was therefore,
only 70 years old when he died. He
came to New Ulm with his parents in
the late SOS and they settled on farm
in the town of Milford. Shortly after
the Indians massacre, he learned the
printers trade in the New. Ulm Post,
and when ~ years old he left for
St. Paul, where he learned the book
binders trade. One year later Mr..

accepted clerical position with one
of the Minneapolis breweries. Work
/ ing himself up in this position, deceased
became secretary of the company when
1 it was recognized 20 years ago. The
