    • MARIA GAUGER
      DEATH COMES TO MRS. C. GAUGER, HERE SINCE 1866

      Death came yesterday morning as a relief to the suffering of Mrs. Maria Gauger, wife of Carl Gauger, who passed away at her home 1017 South Fifteenth street. Mrs. Gauger had been in poor health since January but for the last week her condition had been critical and her death was not unexpected. Born in Multzhan, Germany, March 7, 1845, Mrs. Gauger whose maiden name was Maria Kurth, came to this country locating at Manitowoc, in 1866, and two years later was married to Herman Preuss. There are three daughters, Mrs. Otto Alter, Mrs. W.C. Urbanek and Mrs. Lydia Hrabik. Mr. Preuss passed away in 1891 and in 1894 she was married to Carl Gauger who now survives. In addition to her three daughters and her husband, Mrs. Gauger leaves one brother, William Kurth of this city, three step children, August Gauger of this city, Edward of Milwaukee and John of Porterville, Calif., and seven grandchildren.

      Mrs. Gaugeer was a member of St. John's Evangelical church, and a member of the Ladies' Aid society of the church and when her health permitted was active in these organizations. The funeral will be held at the home at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon and at the church at 2:30. The Rev. G.A. Winger will offiicate and burial will be at Evergreen.
