CENTERVILLE POSTMASTER PASSES AWAY
An attack of "flu" which resulted in his being overcome as he was sorting mail at Centerville only a week ago, at 5:30 o'clock this morning proved fatal for Frank Sachse, 61, for the past 36 years postmaster at Centerville. Had Postmaster Sachse lived until March 2, he would have been 62 years of age.
He had been a life long resident of Centerville and was born on the homestead on which he died. He never married and has been living with his aged mother, Mrs. John Sachse, who is 91 years of age and now totally blind and deaf, a brother, William and a sister, Miss Bertha Sachse. Another sister, Mrs. Fred Schuette of Centerville also survives. Seven brothers and sisters, including several from the city of Manitowoc, preceded him in death.
Funeral arangements have not been completed, but will be announced tomorrow.
