OLE C. OLSON

(1871 • 1915)

MANITOWOC MAN WHO WAS AT CAPTURE OF SAN JUAN HILL, DIES HERE AT AGE OF 43 YEARS

Ole Olson of Chicago, a former Manitowoc man who came here July 3 to visit his mother who five days later was summoned to death, and who was himself taken ill two weeks ago, died at the hospital last night, aged 43. Mr. Olson's death was due to a complication of diseases. The burial will be held from the home, 716 North Sixteenth street, to St. Paul's Norwegian Lutheran church Thursday afternoon.

Mr. Olson was born in Norway and came here with his parents as a boy of two years and spent his childhood days in this city. He was a volunteer seaman on the monitor Amphitrite in the Spanish-American war and was at the capture of the blockhouse at San Juan. Of late years he has been employed as an electrician at Chicago.

His wife died some years ago and he is survived by one son, a brother George, and one sister, Miss Ida, of this city.
