There was a mercy in the death of H.A. Aldrich which occurred at the hospital in Green Bay Sunday. For years he had suffered from incurable diseases and life had become a burden almost unbearable. He had submitted to several operations in the hope of obtaining relief, and during the past two months had been at the hospital. The death of H.A. Aldrich musters from life another of the brave boys of '61 and removes a pioneer settler of Manitowoc county. He was 67 years of age and had resided here for forty years, making his home near the city on the Two Rivers road.
He served during the Civil War with Co. D., Twenty-Seventh Wisconsin Infantry. His wife died recently and the surviving members of the family are two sons, Harry of Chicago and Ray Aldrich of this city and three daughters, Mrs. Matthias Hopfe, Mrs. D. Gilbrath and Miss Carrie Aldrich, of this city. Decedent was a member of H.M. Walker Post, G.A.R. and a man who enjoyed the respect and esteem of comrades and friends. The body will be brought here this evening and the funeral will be held from the late home Wednesday afternoon.
