Anna Mitera 2. Anna Liss. From the web site: http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ne/county/platte/vitals/vitals1916.html The Columbus Telegram, March 10, 1916 TERASINSKI--A small trestle, or saw buck, standing on the sidewalk in Eleventh street in front of Wm. Fontein's piano store caused the death of Victor Terasinski, according to the findings of a coroner's jury at an inquest held at the Gass undertaking parlors Wednesday forenoon. Falling against the trestle last Saturday evening in such a manner that a corner of it struck him in the abdomen Mr. Terasinski sustained a rupture of the intestines which resulted in his death at St. Mary's hospital Sunday night at 11 o'clock. After the accident, which occurred about 8:15 p.m., Mr. Terasinski was able to walk over to his harness shop at 1015 Olive street. After spending a few minutes there he started for home. His daughter, Pauline, met him in the street just outside the shop and accompanied him, but before they reached the house he fell on the sidewalk and she had to summon her brothers to help him the rest of the distance. He suffered intense pain, and Sunday the attending physicians found it necessary to remove him to the hospital where they performed an operation. They found that the intestines had been torn open and that death was inevitable. Mr. Terasinski gave no clear account of the accident, merely saying that he had fallen. Because of the uncertain circumstances attending the case, Coroner Henry Gass, jr., held an inquest Wednesday forenoon at which for the first time the exact nature of the accident was made clear. Doctors B. Tiesing and A.J. Arnold, who attended Terasinski, testified that there was no mark on his body to indicate that he had received any injury. In performing the operation, however, they found the intestines burst in two places. The injury, they said was one that might have been caused by a blow in the abdomen. Mrs. Sophia Rokaz, who was in Eleventh street at the time of the accident, testified that she saw Terasinski just as he tripped and fell on a trestle or saw-buck standing on the sidewalk in front of Fontein's piano store. She could not say whether the trestle caused the fall, or whether he tripped on the uneven sidewalk and fell against the trestle. J.A. Gutzmer acted as interpreter for her. Tony Cielocha, who is employed in the Fontein store, said that Terasinski came into the store after the accident and complained that he had fallen over something on the sidewalk. He seemed to be suffering severe pain. Cielocha went out with him and moved the trestle back against the front of the building. He said Terasinski then walked away. William Fontein on the witness stand said that the trestle, which is used in loading and unloading pianos, was standing on the sidewalk Saturday evening. He could tell nothing of the accident. The jury brought in a verdict that Mr. Terasinski had come to his death as result of a rupture of the bowels caused by falling over a trestle in front of Fontein's piano store. Members of the jury were Ed Rossiter, Jake Brock, Harold Kramer, Morris Langan, Owen Quinn, Geo. W. Davis. Victor Terasinski was born in Posen, Germany, October 15, 1857. He came to this country more than thirty years ago and has conducted harness shops in Lincoln and COlumbus ever since. After coming to Nebraska he lived for several years at Lincoln where his first wife, Anna Mitera Terasinski, died January 6, 1890. Two years later he married Anna Liss. After a brief residence in Columbus they went to Lincoln where they made their home for a while. They then returned to Columbus and this has since been the family home. Mrs. Terasinski passed away April 30, 1908. Mr. Terasinski leaves five sons and four daughters. They are Mrs. Frank Tworek, of Duncan; Miss Josephine Terasinski, who has been clerking in the Diers' store at Platte Center; Adam, Victor, jr., Marie, Pauline, Andrew, Stanislaus and Anton Terasinski, all residing in Columbus. Funeral services were held at St. Bonaventure's church at 9 a.m. Thursday, and burial was made in the Catholic cemetery. Mr. Terasinski was a member of the Modern Woomen of America, and many of the members of the lodge attended the services.
