EMIL SEITZ
Emil Seitz, 75, retired business man, died this noon at the home of his son,
Del, of 926 South 13th street. He had been confined to his bed for some time
and was inactive for years.
Funeral services will be held Wednesday at 2 p.m. from the Leschke funeral home
under auspices of the Odd Fellows lodge. Edward L. Kohls, funeral director will
be in charge. Burial will be in Evergreen cemetery.
Mr. Seitz was born here in 1864. When a young man he took over the management
of the Addison House on South Water street, which he operated for 20 years. He
went to Chicago where for three years he was an operative for the Pinkerton
detective agency.
Returning to Manitowoc Mr. Seitz opened a grocery store on Washington street and
a few years later disposed of this to open the "Ax Billy" tavern at Washington
and 13th street.
He took an active interest in municipal politics 35 years ago and was one of the
orginal supporters of the late Henry Stolze, Jr., the city's first Socialist mayor.
His tavern became the political headquarters of numerous ward groups.
He married Miss Emma Dobbert 50 years ago. At her death 25 years ago he retired
from active business. His sons took over the Soltz interests after that time. He
was a member of the Odd Fellows and the Royal Arcanum.
Survivors are two sons, Del and Harold, both of this city; two brothers, Alex of
Minneapolis, and Albert of Millbank. S.D.
The body may be viewed at the funeral home from this evening until the hour of
services Wednesday.
