On Saturday night, June 1st, Catherine, wife of Jacob Amend, aged 41 years and 3 months.

Catherine Bauer was born, March 2, 1854, At Manitowoc, Rapids. She spent her childhood days in that community and when she grew to womanhood was married to Jacob Amend in 1876. The same year she came to Chilton with her husband to reside. During her residence here she has made friends with all our people. She was a living and devoted wife and mother, a kind and obliging neighbor. She has been in poor health for several weeks, her sickness finally terminating in Bright's disease. She was buried on Tuesday from St. Mary's Catholic Church, of which she was a devout member. Her remains were followed to the grave by relatives and a large number of friends. A heart broken husband, one son and four daughters mourn her death. On May 20th her mother Catherine Bauer died in this city.

At her home in Charlestown, on Tuesday morning, Mar. 12, 1895, Mrs. John Aebischer, aged 74 years, 10 months and 23 days.

Anna Schuster was born in Wahllern, Ant Schwarzenburg. Kanton Bern, Switzerland, April 17, 1820. She came to America in 1854 and lived in Erie, Penn., about two years, then came West to Wisconsin and was married to John Aebischer March 22, 1858. The then young couple settled on their farm in Charlestown where she has resided until her death. Coming here when this was but a wilderness, they, by hard labor and enduring many hardships, cleared the farm on which their son Henry now lives. She was a woman loved and respected by all. She was a kind and devoted wife and mother, a true friend and obliging neighbor and her memory will long be cherished by those who knew her.

She leaves a husband, two sons Fred of Straubville, N. D., and Henry of Charlestown, beside other relatives and a large circle of warm friends to mourn her death.

Our citizens were shocked on Wednes, to learn that Christian Aebischer's team ran away and that he was killed. The particulars as gleaned from his brother Samuel are as follows:

Mr. Aebischer was returning from Peter Kroehnke's cheese factory at Gravesville, and at Andrew Allen's farm picked up the road district scraper, intending to use it at another point of the district. Near Henry Losey's, and in sight of his own residence, he got down from the wagon to lift the scraper out, and when about getting in again the team started. He had a hold of the seat and wagon box at the same time, but was thrown down and a hind wheel passed between his legs and diagonally over his abdomen. He got up and ran after his team about twenty rods when he fell in the road. Henry Losey, who was a spectator of the sad affair, ran to his assistance so that when the team turned around they could not run over him. Mr. Losey assisted by John Venn and Frank Cheesbro then carried him into the house where he expired in 15 or 20 minutes. The deceased was a native of Berne, Switzerland, and was one of the well-to-do farmers of Charlestown, where he located 28 years ago. He was an honest and industrious citizen, who was well and favorably known throughout the county, and his departure causes universal regret. He was 53 years of age. His absence will be missed for a long time to come.

A telephone message was received in this city on Friday evening last, June 16, from Taycheedah, stating that J. C. Aplin died at his home in that place at 3:45 that day. The news of this man's death will be read with regret by many residences of this county. Mr. Aplin was a native of New York and was born in Batavia, that state, June 3 1824. In the forties he came to Wisconsin and located near Sheboygan Falls where he remained several years. In the fifties he moved to Taycheedah, remaining there until shortly before the war when he took up a farm in the town of Rantoul, near Potter, this county. He was an excellent farmer and succeeded in gaining quite a reputation as a breeder of fine horses and cattle. He was a companionable sort of a man and was known by everyone within miles from his home; he was a good neighbor, an honest man and a progressive and enterprising citizen; and when he turned over his farm some ten years ago to his son and moved to Taycheedah his neighbors and friends greatly regretted it.

He is survived by three children, N. J., of Potter, Mrs. J. R. Hazard, of Kansas City, and Mrs. E. S. Day, of Danvers, Mass., The Times extends to the bereft relatives its sympathy in their bereavement.

The funeral was held Sunday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock from the M. E. church in Taycheedah, Rev. Sabin Halsey officiating.

Funeral services for Anton Andraska, 79, will be held at St. John's Catholic Church at 9am Saturday. Mr. Andraska died yesterday at 5pm in his home, 413 West Cleveland Street, following an illness of several weeks with bronchial trouble.

Fifty years ago the family came to Marshfield, WI and immediately began farming in the town of Richfield, where they lived until 12 years ago, when hey moved to their present home in the city.
