Druggist, Two Rivers, is a native of this place. In 1869 he began
learning the drug business with Dr. J. Oswald, and continued his
studies for three years, when he moved to Manitowoc, where he
followed the drug business for three and one-half years, then moved
to Appleton, where he remained but a short time. On May 10, 1879,
he bought out the drug store of Dr. F. S. Luhmann, and has since
conducted the business.

”Two Rivers news:
Henry Gebhart has added an elegant soda fountain to his drug-store, and the cooling beverage which it furnishes is now being dealt out daily to multitudes of thirsty customers.”

H. M. GEBHARD DEPARTS FOR "THE UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY"
At about 2 o'clock this morning, the death of Henry M. Gebhard, which
has been hourly expected for the past week or more, took place. For more
than a year, he had been failing, but he did not surrender to disease
until two weeks ago, keeping about his business and greeting all his
friends with his old time cheerfulness and vigor. His death was due to
heart failure and to pulmonary complications and he was terribly
emaciated and wasted towards the last.
Henry M. Gebhard was born on the 5th of September, 1855 and was
consequently 46 years of age. Two Rivers was the place of his birth and
almost uninterruptedly, his place of residence during his whole life. He
was known by every man, woman and child in this city and in fact, in the
whole northern portion of the county. No man in this community was ever
more implicitly trusted or more universally respected and honored. He
was popular with everybody, old and young, of a genial, sunny nature,
responsive and sympathetic and with all, one of the most companionable
of men. He was a druggist by profession and one of the most competent
and careful men in that line of business. He was unmarried and of his
immediate relatives, only his father and two sisters are living. His
funeral will be from the Masonic lodge and in accordance with Masonic
usages on Friday afternoon.
