HEART STROKE CAUSES DEATH
Charles Selk Is Victim While On Automobile Ride
Charles J. Selk, 73, died suddenly of a heart stroke Sunday morning, shortly
after being brought to his home in the city from a short motor trip in the
country.
Mr. Selk accompanied his son-in-law, Louis Sieker, for a ride, and a few miles
north of the city he was taken ill. Mr. Sieker returned to the Selk home, 1411
South Ninth street, but Mr. Selk died before the arrival of a physician.
Funeral services will be held Wednesday, at 2 p.m from the Wattawa, Urbanek and
Schlei funeral home. The services will be in charge of the Rev. C. H. Phipps.
Interment will be in Evergreen cemetery.
Born Here in 1863
Mr. Selk was born in Manitowoc in 1863, in the home where he spent his entire
life. Early in life he learned the machinist’s trade, which he followed until
his retirement several years ago. He was a member of the Maccabee lodge.
In 1888 Mr. Selk married Miss Jennie Stolze. The widow survives with three
daughters, Mrs. Lawrence Tabat, Mrs. Louis Sieker and Miss Jennie Selk, all of
this city; a son, Charles, Glendale, Calif.; a brother, Herman, Spokane, Wash.;
a sister, Mrs. Thomas Hubbel, Spokane; and four grandchildren.
The body is at the funeral home and may be viewed until the hour of services.
