Gottfried Petzoldt, a pioneer settler of the town of Two Rivers, died last Saturday at the home of Mr. John Drier from the results of a surgical operation, he being too feeble and old to recover from the schock (sic) thereof. The operation was made in the hopes of prolonging his life. He was born in Battendorf, Saxony, October 16, 1823 and was married while still in Saxony to Caroline Brandt. He came to this country and settled upon a farm a few miles north of here about 50 years ago. He was a Union soldier during the war of the Rebellion and a member of Jos. Rankin Post G.A.R. He leaves
five daughters (all of whom are married) and one son. The funeral takes place this afternoon from St. John's church.
