ANOTHER PIONEER AT REST
Carl Guetschoff, a former resident of Arlington township, died at his 
home in Gaylord.
	We note the following item in the Gaylord Hub of last week
regarding the death of Carl Guetschoff, who is well known in this 
vicinity, having been for twenty five years a resident of Arlington 
township.
	“The end came to the earthly remains of an old and respected 
settler of this county and our city, on Wednesday evening at 7 o’clock, 
when Carl Guetschoff passed to the great beyond.  By his death a good 
citizen and true Christian has gone to his maker and his many friends 
mourn.  he was highly respected, had always proven himself honest and 
upright, a kind father and husband.
	Carl Guetschoff was born in Germany, October 11, 1831, being 
nearly seventy-three years old.  He came to this country in the year 
of 1852, settling in Illinois, living in Chicago seven years and on 
a farm in thatstate for the same length of time.
	While a resident of Chicago he was joined in marriage to Sophia 
Bremer in 1854.  Ten children resulted from the union, two of whom have 
passed away some years ago, Helen and Christine.  Eight children and the  
widow survive him.  The children are Henry Guetschoff, of Wood Lake; 
Mrs. Paul Roehler, of Arlington; Mrs. Edward Herbst of Blakely; Mrs.
Fred Boeder, Miss Lena, sons John and Chas. of this place and Herman, 
of Detroit, Mich. 
	Mr. Guetschoff came to this country in 1866 settling on a farm in
Arlington township where he and his family resided until 1891 when he came
to this place, making his home here.  His remains will be laid to rest in
the cemetery north of town today (Friday), at one o’clock p.m. Rev. Aug.
Hertwig will read the last sad rites.
	He was taken sick some months ago with dropsy and quietly passed 
away after much suffering.  The services will be held from the Evangelical
Lutheran church, of which he was a member.
	We join the friends and relatives of the deceased in extending 
sympathies to them in their hour of sorrow.”
	Those who attended the funeral from here were John Meffert and 
wife, Henry Meffert, Paul Roehler, wife and son, Philip Meffert and wife, 
Herman Meffert and wife and Louis Thoele and wife.
