HARRY BEMIS
Harry Eugene Bemis, 66, for 30 years claim attorney for the Soo line railroad and a native of Two Rivers, died yesterday in a Milwaukee hospital after a year's illness. He would have observed his birthday next Friday. Mr. Bemis, who retired last May 15, was born in Two Rivers in 1873, a sons of Elmer and Minnie Bemis. His grandfather, Dr. John Oswald, was the first physician in Two Rivers. He was graduated from the high school in 1891 and entered the law school of Marquette University. On completion of his studies he was associated with Judge Turner and later was in the law office of Hayes, Goff and Bemis in Milwaukee.
He began his career with the Soo line railroad more than 30 years ago and was claim agent at Medford. He was at Medford until about 1921 after which he was transferred to Stevens Point. From Stevens Point he went to Milwaukee in 1928 and served the railroad there until he retired May 15, 1938. His health began to fail shortly after his retirement and last fall he spent considerable time in Two Rivers in an effort to recuperate. He was pensioned at the time he retired.
In July 30, 1914, Mr. Bemis married Miss Elva Ann Mitchell of Ogema, Wis. The couple celebrated their silver wedding anniversary little more than a month ago. Survivors are the widow; two daughters, Mildred Elizabeth and Nancy Jane, both of Milwaukee and one sister, Mrs. Anthony P. Geimer of Two Rivers.
Burial will be held tomorrow in Two Rivers. Services will be 2:30 pm from the Beduhn Funeral Home with A.J. Fanta of this city in charge of Christian Science Rites. Interment will be in Pioneer Rest Cemetery. The body may be viewed at the funeral home tonight.
