CARL W. ENDRESS
WHERE THE WEARY FIND REST
Carl W. Endress, Pioneer Resident, Passes from Life of Long Years
One more of the pioneers of Manitowoc county has crossed the river
to rest in the shade of the trees, death having released Carl W.
Endress from the responsibilities of earthly life at 10 o'clock
Sunday night. Death's messenger is a sad visitation, but when the
insidious foe of life has gnawed for months, oftimes for years, on
the vitals of some fond charge on the care and attention of mother,
father, husband, wife or children, who have watched the color fade
from the cheek and the luster from the eye, then it is that the
soul is glad to pass the portals and bring relief to dying mortality
as well as to the living. Such was the end of Carl Endress, who for
a long period had battled disease until his enfeebled constitution
could no longer bear up and then, conscious up to within a few
minutes of death, his eyes closed peacefully and the spirit silently
took flight.
Carl W. Endress, who had been a resident of this county nearly half
a century, was born in Wittenberg, Germany, November 7, 1828 and
immediately after his marriage in 1854 came to Manitowoc county where
he has since been a prominent and highly respected resident. For
years, from 1855 to 1888 he made his home at Two Rivers and at the
latter date retired from active business pursuits and came to this
city where he has continued to reside. Mrs. Endress died a few months
ago and since that time the husband has failed rapidly. He was a
patient sufferer and received the tender care of his children, but
it was seen some time ago that his life work was about to be finished.
His death came as a severe shock. During his life-time acquaintance
with affairs of Manitowoc county Mr. Endress had ever been a citizen
devoted to the interests of the community and had accomplished much
for the advancement of this section. He was a man of high character
and was universally esteemed. Three sons Emil G. and S.F., of Saulte
Ste. Marie, and A.J., of this city, and one daughter, Mrs. Joseph
Willott Jr., besides a large circle of friends, survive to mourn his
demise.
The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon from the late home, 504
State street and will be in charge of the fraternal organization Sons
of Hermann, of which deceased was a member.
