ADOLF PILGER (ADOLPH)
From Der Nord Westen, 28 Mar. 1901:
Death Wed. last week here of Adolph Pilger following a long illness with
consumption. The deceased, who was born in Cooperstown, reached the age
of 40. He leaves his widow and 5 children. The funeral was held on Sun.
********
WEARY ILLNESS ENDS IN DEATH
After a weary illness from consumption Adolph Pilger Wednesday night
gave up the brave struggle for health and peacefully passed to his
final rest. The light of mortality had flickered long in its vain
attempt to exist; day by day the vital fluid grew weaker and the less
responsive flame grew smaller until the breath of the Grim Destroyer
extinguished it and earthly existence was over. The demise occurred
at the home on N. Tenth street and dissolution was calm and free from
pain.
Born at Cooperstown, this country, forty years ago, Mr. Pilger was
widely known and extensive friendship will regret to learn of his
death. He had been a resident of the city a number of years, and,
though living a retired life, was well known as a man of excellent
character and was held in high esteem. He was a member of the C. S.
P.S. society and was of social and friendly nature. A wife and five
children, Edward, Emma, Mable, Ida and Anna survive him. The funeral
will be held Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock from the late home.
