Read More	Herman Korner Dies of Apoplexy While this community was not wholly unprepared for the news of the death of Mr. Herman Korner, still his passing away was a great shock to all in this vicinity who have known the jovial good natured man since his boyhood days. He was a familiar figure on the Schleswig streets since 1916 and was known all throughout northern Crawford County, being a large land owner as well as an all around good fellow. When Mr. Korner had his first stroke April 2nd, his close friends feared the worst on account of his physical condition at the time. As he did not regain consciousness and when the second stroke occurred on the 15th it was generally conceded that the end was not far off, still hope was strong and it was sincerely hoped that a change for the better would take place and that his seemingly splendid system would throw off the disease. But the third attack came on Thursday and he passed quietly away after two weeks of suffering. Herman Peter Korner was born April 16, 1874 on the Island of Fehmarn, Germany and died on April 17, 1924 at the age of 50 years and one day. When he was nine years old he came with his parents to America, settling in Crawford County, Otter Creek Township. Here he grew to sturdy manhood and on June 7, 1900 he was united in marriage to Miss Louise Miller, who passed away July 21, 1916. To this union eight children were born, one dying in infancy. Those living are Arthur of Holstein, Carl of Battle Creek, and Harry, Walter, Leo, Bernhard, and Esther at home. On July 6, 1922 he was united in marriage to Miss Amanda Boger. In 1916 Mr. Korner left the farm and moved to Schleswig, here he engaged in real estate. Thus he went among us as a familiar figure much more so because the Creator had given him a good physique and a strong body. And so it naturally was a great shock to the entire community when it became known, that on April 2nd Mr. Korner had suffered a stroke of apoplexy. He had not been feeling well about a week prior to being stricken. Now the strong looking man had become pitifully helpless. Whatever medical skill and the care of a trained nurse and his loving wife could do, were done for him, but to no avail. At times it seemed as though he was improving a little, but even so he may have been conscious for brief moments only. On Tuesday night, April 15th, he suffered a second stroke, suffering a good deal as a result, and on April 17th, a third one. He was then fully unconscious and in the evening of the same day, April 17th he passed away to his reward. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the young widow and to the children, some of whom were still in need and will miss the father's care; May the God of comfort be their aid at this trying time, may he also comfort the aged father of the deceased, Mr. Matthais Korner of Denison. The departed also leaves to mourn his loss: two sisters, Mrs. Amanda Timm of Denison and Mrs. Charley Speck of near Denison, two grand children and more distant relatives. Funeral services were held at the house Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock conducted by Rev. Mauch and the remains laid to rest in Morgan Township Cemetery.
