    Obituary:
    DROWNS IN LONG LAKE
    Hugo, the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Reuther of this city was drowned in Long Lake last Sunday afternoon.
    Together with a few boy companions, he left the city Sunday noon to spend the afternoon at the lake. Deciding to take a swim, and for a little fun in the water, the lads overturned a boat and played with it in shallow water as boys usually do in such cases. Most of the boys are good swimmers, but Hugo was not. Gradually the boat was maneuvered to deeper water, the boys not noticing the fact, each being engaged in having his fun. Hugo himself probably was not away of his imminent danger. Suddenly some one noticed that he was no longer clinging to the boat. At the same instant Hubert Schneider saw bubble rising to the surface near by. At once he knew what had happened and like a flash dove down to the rescue of his unfortunate companion. It was an act of rare courage, reckless almost, for the drowning boy was heavier that himself and only exceptional swimming strength could have enabled him to take young Reuther to safety. He nearly paid the penalty with his life, though he actually succeeded in grasping Reuther by the hair and almost bringing him to the surface. The drowning lad grasped him as a drowning man will, and Schneider had to call for help and let go his hold or be dragged along to the bottom. Jos. Schneider plunged to his rescue, not taking time to cast off his clothes and just succeeded by a finger length in towing the nearly exhausted young life-saver to shallow water.
    Reuther had not risen to the surface again. A few persons on the shore witnessed the occurrence and John Groutemont, as soon as it was evident that Reuther was drowning, had jumped into a rig and started for Brillion to get medical assistance he knew would be needed if the boy was gotten out at all. At the lake however there appeared to be absolutely nothing in the line of life saving apparatus and those on shore could do nothing until help arrived from the city. When Groutemont brought the news here a team was quickly hitched, Dr. Meyer summoned and together with Louis Reuter, Louis Pracht and Chas Bruss all haste was made for the scene of the accident. Reaching there, and by means of rope and draghooks, brought along, the body was found after a half hour's search, after being in the water about an hour and a half or more. Life was, of course, extinct, and the remains were brought to Luecker's undertaking rooms in this city, and later taken to the home of the young man's parents on Center St.
    The funeral was held from the parental home on Wednesday afternoon, and was one of the largest ever held here. Mr. M. Thomsen spoke at the house and also at the grave. The Brillion Symphony Band led the funeral cortege, rendering a dirge. A choir composed of young people also rendered several songs.
