MARY HAUSNER
TAUS WOMAN ENDS HER LIFE IN CISTERN
Nervous Breakdown Thot to Have Unbalanced Mind of Suicide
Double tragedy was recorded in Manitowoc countys book of history today when
following the report of the murder on the Wrolson farm, authorities received
notice of the death by her own hand of Mrs. John Hausner at Taus. Mrs. Hausner
was found in a cistern in the cellar of her home when search was made for her
after she had been absent for some time. The body was found by Mr. Hausner.
Mrs. Hausner is believed to have ended her life while insane, caused by nervous
breakdown, lack of sleep and prolonged illness. She was formerly Mary Naidl and
was 60 years of age, having been married for forty years. Four children born to
her are dead.
Ill For Long Time
Ill since last fall, Mrs. Hausner had believed that she was improving but had
still been troubled by nervous attacks and inability to sleep. She arose as usual
this morning and assisted her sister who had been at the home in work about the
house but during the absence of her husband and sister in other parts of the house
made her way to the cellar and apparently plunged into the cistern head first.
Mr. Hausner, searching for his wife, visited the cellar and made discovery of the
body. Although Mrs. Hausner had acted strangely at times, it was not thought by
relatives that her mind was affected.
Besides her husband Mrs. Hausner is survived by three brothers, George of this
city and Jacob and Joseph Naidel, Franklin, and one sister, Anna Marijovitz, of
Reedsville.
No inquest will be called as the case is pronounced clearly a suicide.
