TAKEN TO OSHKOSH HOSPITAL WEEK AGO, AUGUST DRAEGER,
TWO RIVERS, BROUGHT BACK A CORPSE
Taken to the Northern hospital at Oshkosh a week ago when his mind gave
way under worry over illness and financial troubles, August Draeger, a
Two Rivers man was brought back to his home today, a corpse. The burial
will be held at Two Rivers.
Draeger was injured last December when he fell on an icy walk and fractured
his hip. He was at the hospital here for weeks and constant worry over his
trouble affected the man's mind and he was sent to the hospital at Oshkosh
for treatment. His condition was such that he had to be taken to the train
on a stretcher. Yesterday report was received at probate court that the man
had died and the body arrived here last night.
Draeger was 48 years of age.
