Mishicot:
At 1 o'clock on last Tuesday morning, the angel of death entered the Lehrman(sic) home of our town and took from their home beloved husband and father, Mr. Henry Lehrman. Mr. Lehrman was born forty-eight years ago on the farm occupied by his son, Mr. William Lehrman of this town. He was married to Miss Libbie Frasch twenty-five years ago and lived on the homestead farm -- illegible -- sheriff of Manitowoc County. The manner in which he performed the duties of this office did honor to Mr. Lehrman.
After his term expired he again took up the duties of farm life on the old homestead and remained there until about six years ago when he purchased a part of the Pfister estate and moved to Two Creeks which has been his home. Mr. Lehrman has been the most prominent man in our town for many years being the
leader in every project that was beneficial to our town. He was chairman of our town for many years and was chairman of the county board at Manitowoc during the construction of the Court House at which time he extended great influence. After Mr. Lehrman retired from the Chairman's office he started the Two Creeks Co-operative Cheese Co. and to him its success is due, more than to any other man being president of this Cheese Co. to the time of his death. Since he was a young man he was always interested in threshing and he has had a threshing rig of his own for many years and was the owner of two rigs until about four years ago. His friendly face will be missed by his many friends when the threshing season opens again. Mr. Lehrman is survived by a heart broken wife and a large family of grief stricken children, his family of four sons and seven daughters. He is also survived by one brother, Mr. August Lehrman of this town and several sisters. The remains of the deceased were taken to their last resting place at 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon at Mack's Cemetery.
