Died-

Died at his home in Dubuque, Dr. C. M. Kegler, who is very well known to 
people of this county. The Dubuque Daily Telegraph of Monday, February 10th, 
contained the following:
At 5 o’clock Sunday morning Dr. Kegler, the well known cancer specialist, 
passed away at his home at the corner of Tenth and Main streets. Christian 
Matthias Kegler was born in Germany, February 24, 1848. Coming to this country 
at three years of age, he settled with his parents on a farm near St. Donatus. 
On February 11, 1877, he was united in marriage with Miss Mary Knowles who, 
with eight children, three sons and five daughters, survive him. Dr. Kegler 
embarked in business at Springbrook when he was proprietor of a large general 
store. In addition to this he was interested in several large creameries in 
Jackson County. His unquestionable integrity and honorable business methods 
won for him success in whatever he undertook and there was not in Jackson 
County a man better known or any more ready to do kind service for a friend or 
neighbor, regardless of recompense than Dr. Kegler. He came to Dubuque about 
eight years ago. Dr. Kegler was a man of genial temperament and the good he 
has done will live long after him. His remains were shipped today to 
Springbrook for interment. Services will be held tomorrow at Saints Peter and 
Paul Catholic Church.
