JOHN OSWALD
The Angel of Death appeared at the residence of Mrs. Frank Oswald on
Thursday morning and taking to eternal rest of her son, John. Mr. John
Oswald was born 1865, Sept. 8th, being now 42 years old. Death was the
result of an acute case of Bright's disease. Mr. Oswald, the departed
one, sailed on the Great Lakes until 1893. A misfortune befell him while
employed as chef on one of the great steamers depriving him of his
eyesight. For the last four years he has been failing, being totally
blind these days. Death certainly came in this case as a relief. Mr.
Oswald was widely known in marine circles. A mother, five brothers and
two sisters survive the departed. They are Edward, Otto and William of
Milwaukee, Frank of Chicago, Walter of this city; the sisters are Miss
Minnie of this city and Mrs. Emma Schearer of Chicago. The funeral will
take place Sunday afternoon.
