Simon P. Geiger, an old and respected citizen of Maple Grove died at his home last Monday at the age of 74 years. Deceased was born in Germany and came to America with his parents in 1856, settling in Menasha. Three years later the family moved to the farmstead north of this city where Mr. Geiger has lived since and which is now owned by his son, Dan Geiger. The decedent is survived by the widow and five sons and four daughters.
The sons are John of Cosco, Andrew, Peter, Dan and Robert of the town of Brillion, Mrs. Chas Giese of Maple Grove, Mrs. Vogel of Newton, Mrs. Henry Brill of Appleton and Mrs. Tim Brantmeyer of Galesburg. One brother, John of Maple Grove and two sisters, Mrs. Hopfensberger of Appleton and Mrs. Schrage of Menasha also survive.
The funeral took place yesterday from the Kasson Catholic Church, Rev. Gerthans officiating. The funeral was attended by the Catholic Knights of which he was a member.

News has just reached us that fire destroyed two of Simon Geiger's barns this morning. The fire started in an old log barn, cause unknown, and the structure stood about 50 feet from a large new barn, stocked with this year's harvest and hay. Sparks from the smaller building lodged on the new barn and got into the grain and this building with contents was also completely destroyed.
