Died:
Mrs. Alwina Vogtel

Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock Mrs. Herman Vogtel breathed her last at the Loretto Hospital. Altho it was known that she had been ill for several weeks, no one thought that her end was so near, and the news of her demise proved quite a shock to her many friends. Mrs. Vogtel had been seriously ill several years ago with rheumatism, and since then she had been apparently in the best of health until about a year ago when she commenced ailing. Her ailment was diagnosed as gall-stones and gall-bladder trouble and her condition became so alarming the week before her death that it was decided to perform an operation which was done at the Loretto Hospital Monday morning. The surgeons who performed the operation considered her case hopeless from the start but she lingered until Wednesday morning.

The deceased was born in Nicollet Township, Nicollet County May 22 1876, as a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Freitag and was consequently only 38 years, 6 months, and 3 days old when she died. From Nicollet County, the family removed to Eden Township in the county where the deceased was married October 23, 1894 to Herman Vogtel, who survives her. Shortly afterwards they moved to New Ulm where they have since resided.

At the time of her death Mrs. Vogtel was a member of the Lutheran Ladies' Aid Society who attended the funeral in a body. In this society she was always an earnest and active worker and she will be greatly missed. She is survived by her husband, one daughter and a son just a year old.

She is also survived by the following sisters and brothers : Herman Freitag, Milaca, Minn.; Fred Freitag, Max, N.D.; Mrs. Gustav Kremin, Vesta, Minn.; Mrs. Fred Jones, Morgan; Mrs. Otto Hoppe, Nicollet and Mrs. R.H. Bruesehoff, Fond du Lac, Wis. the funeral was held Saturday afternoon with services at the late home at 2 o'clock and at the Lutheran Church at 2:30 o'clock.

Misc:
The St. Peter Herald says that, about three months ago, Herman Freitag, of Brown county, bought a team of horses from Henry Bode, of that city, and took the team from Mr. Bode's barn at Nicollet. About a week ago one of the horses made its escape from the pasture and found its way back to the Nicollet farm, some forty miles distant. The horse unassisted let down the bars, opened the stable door and was found in the morning in its old accustomed stall. Some sagacity about the animal surely.

Misc:
Herman Freitag has disposed of his farm of 160 acres in Eden to Chas. Bell for $3,000.

Accident:
Aitkin Happenings

Herman Freitag, the man who was struck by a freight train in this village yesterday, was taken to Brainerd hospital, and had one leg amupted at the knee. his left arm is badly broken and mangled, but amputation is not necessary.

Died:
Killed by the Cars

Last Tuesday evening about 7 o'clock as Herman Feitag(sic) was walking on the railroad track, on his way from town to his home one mile east, he was overtaken and run over by an outgoing freight train running at high speed. The trainmen saw the accident and they stopped as soon as possible and went back to where the man was lying, picked him up and brought him back to town. It was found that the train had passed over an arm and a leg. The unfortunate man was taken to the hospital at Brainerd on the 11 o'clock passenger train, and there his injured limbs were amputated and everything possible done to save his life, but he died on Sunday. The remains were brought to Aitkin Monday, and the funeral services were held in the afternoon.

Mr. Freitag was an old soldier, about 54 years old, and leaves a wife and five children. He came here with his family from near Mankato about a year ago. He is somewhat deaf, which possibly is the reason he did not hear the train.

Herman married BRANDT, Mina in 1874. Mina was born in Mar 1855 in Germany; was christened on 15 May 1856 in Odenkirchen, Rheinland, Prussia; died on 22 May 1904 in Redwood, Minnesota, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
