From Der Nord Westen, 11 Aug. 1892: (From the correspondent in Two Rivers, 08 Aug.)
Death of a son of Rudolph Bischoff about 4 a.m. Fri. morning while he was
taking milk to the cheese factory during the bad weather. During the heavy
weather he was holding his horse when a lightening bolt struck close by and
killed him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Louis Bishopf (sic) of Two Rivers, a boy of 17, was struck by lightning last week, while on his way to a cheese factory with milk, and instantly killed. His brother, a lame boy, usually did this work, but on the fatal morning Louis volunteered to take his place as it was raining and thereby lost his life.
