From Der Nord Westen, 07 July 1892:
Death on Mon., 04 July, at 3 p.m., of Mr. Xaver Meier, a well-known localresident, of a heart attack. Mr. Meier was working that day gathering hay. Mrs. Meier brought him his lunch and upon returning to pick up the utensils, found Mr. Meier lying face down. She sought help and the unfortunate man was carried home and Dr. Kemper was called, but nothing could be done. A coroner’s inquest was held the following day with a verdict of “heart attack”. Mr. Meier was born 26 July 1824 in Oberhausen, Baden, and reached the age of 68 yrs. He came to America in 1855 and lived for 2-1/2 yrs. in Williamsburg, N.Y., before coming to Manitowoc where he has remained. He leaves his sorrowing widow and 3 grown daughters, one of whom has taken the veil, the second is married, and the third lives with her parents. The deceased was buried this morning at the local Catholic Cemetery. A large funeral procession, led by the St. Boniface Society, of which Mr. Meier was a member, rendered the last respects.
