KAFKA, SON OF MATT.
From Der Nord Westen, 11 Aug 1904: (From the correspondent in Two Rivers, 08 Aug.)

There was a large funeral here Fri. morning. The 4-yr. old son of Matt. Kafka here was playing near the river Sun., fell in and drowned. There was no help nearby, so when the body was finally pulled from the water, the doctor who had been summoned was obviously unable to save him. Loss of the intelligent boy was a blow to the parents.
