John Stumpf Dead
"Life's But a Walking Shadow, a Poor Player That Struts and Frets His Hour Upon The Stage And Then is Heard No More."

John Stumpf died last Monday, December the twenty-sixth, after an illness of one week. He was born in Zindorf, near Cologne, Germany, December the twenty-sixth, eighteen hundred and thirty-seven, came to Cross Plains, Wisconsin, in eighteen hundred and fifty-one and lived there until eighteen hundred and sixty-nine when he came to Pierz. Mr. Stumpf is survived by his widow, three sons: Frank, Theodore and Henry; four daughters: Mrs. Hubert Bares, Mrs. Jacob Blake, Mrs. Herman Bentfeld and Mrs. John Rassier; and about fifty grandchildren and six great grandchildren. He was buried Thursday morning in St. Joseph's cemetery.

As a public officer he held an enviable record. He was elected state representative from this district in eighteen hundred and eighty, served as chairman of the board of county commissioners for twelve years, and was three years chairman of the supervisors of the town of Pierz.
