OBITUARY PAUL STEFFEN


The news of the death of Paul Steffen came as a surprise to his numerous friends Thursday, when he was suddenly called from this earth.


Mr. Steffen was a resident of Milwaukee most of his life, having been on the police force there twelve years. A year ago he came to Greenwood, Clark County with his family and settled on a farm a mile east and a mile north of Warner's Corners.

 

Here he started into the forest to cut out a home and farm. His poor health had been a great hindrance in his work, but steady and persistent methods had proved himself capable of the task.


His early demise is due to a stroke of paralysis about two years ago, which left him with a weak heart.


His remains were taken to Owen Saturday night by G. W. Bishop and the body sent to Milwaukee for burial.


He leaves a wife and two children, one brother and a father to mourn his departure.
