Notes from Two Rivers:
Nicholaus(sic) Christoffel, an old resident of Two Rivers, died of dropsy last Thursday at the Holy Family Hospital, after being confined for ten months. He was 77 years old. Mr. Christoffel was born in Creov, Germany on May 4, 1845. He and his wife made Two Rivers their home and raised a family of three boys and four girls. He is survived by three sons, Henry, John and Joseph of this city and four daughters, Mrs. John H. Neumann, Mrs. Joseph Moseler and Mrs. Joseph Doncheck of this city and Mrs. Joseph Yaeger of Milwaukee. The funeral took place at 9 o'clock Monday morning from St. Lukes church, Rev. Father Littel officiating.

FATHER ALSO HAS ACCIDENT
Mr. Nick Christoffel of the Southside sustained a broken leg Monday when his horse ran away. He was on his way to his farm just west of the city to get a load of wood. In making too short a turn the planks on the wagon became caught in the front wheel frightening the horse and throwing Mr. Christoffel to the ground. One of the hind wheels went over his leg breaking it just below the knee. Mr. Christoffel is 70 years of age and it will be some time before the break is healed. Last week, his son Henry, was struck in the eye by a piece of metal at the Aluminum Goods Plant. It is reported from Milwaukee where he is at a hospital that prospects are good that the sight of the eye will be saved.

===============================
Nicholas Christoffel, venerated citizen of the Southside for the past 56 years, answered the summons of death last week Thursday at the age of seventy-seven years. He was a victim of dropsy. But for this generally incurable malady, he might have lived many years for he was still strong and active. His death took place at Holy Family Hospital where he was confined for several weeks.
Deceased was a devout member of St. Luke's church and had the respect of his neighbors and friends as a good citizen. He was a member of the Catholic Family Protective Association for many years and he was a charter member of the St. Joseph's Society whose golden jubilee was celebrated here last May which was the last time he attended a function in connection with the church, his declining health confining him to his home ever since. Decedent was born in Germany and coming to this country a young man, was employed in the manufacturing industries here until, having raised a family and by frugality and industry provided for old age, he laid aside the implements of toil about fifteen years ago to enjoy the fruits of his labors. He worked a small piece of land and lived content the last years of well spent life.
His wife and helpmate passed away thirty years ago and tho he sadly missed her company, he was philosophical and consoled himself with the thought it was God's will. Three sons and four daughters survive: John, Henry and Joseph, Mrs. John H. Neumann, Mrs. Jos. Moseler and Mrs. Jos. Doncheck of this city and Mrs. Jos. Yaeger of Milwaukee. The funeral was held Monday morning from St. Luke's Church.
