FINDS BODY OF WIFE LYING ON FLOOR

A telegram was received here Saturday by John Mangan, informing him of the death of his sister, Mrs. E.J. Hamburg at Marinette. Mr. Mangan and another sister, Mrs. William Hurley, took the first train for that city the same day.

Katherine Mangan was the youngest daughter of the late James Mangan, a pioneer of Chilton town and a member of Company G, 14th Wisconsin Volunteer infantry.
She was born on a farm one mile North of this city, where she resided until some 18 years ago when she moved with her mother to this city. In 1904, her mother died and the same year, she went to Marinette to live with her sister, Mrs. Len Miller and one year later was married to E.J. Hamburg.

Her sudden and unexpected death was a shock not only to members of her own family, but to her friends in her old home, where she was highly esteemed.

The funeral took place on Monday from the Catholic church at Marinette. She is survived by a husband, two brothers: John Mangan of this city and James Mangan of Kaukauna and two sisters: Mrs. Len Miller of Marinette and Mrs. William Hurley, who resides on the old Mangan homestead, one mile North of this city.

The Marinette Eagle-Star of Monday gives the following account of her untimely death.

"On Thursday, E.J. Hamburg of 1853 Pierce Avenue, was summoned home from Goodman, Wisconsin where he is employed, by a letter telling him of his wife's illness. He arrived home Friday night about midnight and rapped at the door of his home, but received no response. Hamburg became alarmed and went outside to the bedroom window. By removing the screen, he managed to enter the room, which was in darkness, and was horrified when his feet came in contact with his wife's body lying on the floor.

Although badly shocked, the husband quickly summoned a physician and Coroner James Tweedie. They found Mrs. Hamburg was dead, evidently having passed away of heart disease about 10 o'clock in the night. The coroner decided no inquest was necessary.

Mrs. Hamburg, who was 46 years of age, had been suffering from nervousness for some time, but her condition had not been grave until this week, when word was sent to her husband to come home. Miss Margaret Fravalt of Pound, Wisconsin had been living at the home and taking care of Mrs. Hamburg. She was up with the patient all night Thursday and was very tired Friday night. She saw Mrs. Hamburg safely in bed at 9:15 o'clock and heard nothing more until she was awakened after the woman's body had been found by the husband. Mrs. Hamburg must have arisen from her bed and then dropped dead on the floor of her room".
