Two Rivers news:
Chas. Grimme(sic), a young man aged twenty-two years, whose parents reside a
few miles north of the Tannery, died of lung fever on Wednesday of last week.
Some time ago he left here to engage at work in Port Washington, but failing
health induced him to return home a few weeks ago, since which time he has
been rapidly approaching the end of his earthly career. Dr. Luhman was then
summoned to the bedside of the young man, but he died shortly after the arrival
of the doctor. The large concourse of friends which followed the remains of the
deceased to their final resting place on Friday, is evidence that he was highly
respected in the community in which he resided.
