  Lying unconscious at his home for twelve days, Fred R. Griem, 68, passed away here Tuesday morning at 1:45. Death was due to a fractured skull suffered in a fall from a stepladder at the New Holstein Canning company plant. Cause of his death was not determined until after his death, when a post mortem was held by Dr. E. L. Tharinger, Milwaukee pathologist. Mr. Griem was born here February 2, 1866, the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Griem. His oldest sister, Mrs. C. D. Jens, was the first white child born in New Holstein. As a youth he learned the blacksmith trade and conducted a shop here until about five years ago, since when he lived in retirement. His entire life was spent here except for two years that he was employed in Chicago. He was married November 4, 1893 to Miss Annie Beyerstedt of this city. He is survived by his wife, one daughter, Mrs. Noah Bess of Merrill; three sons, Ralph of Pittsburgh, Pa., Lester of Detroit, Mich., and Harvey of West Allis; one sister, Mrs. C. D. Jens of this city, and four brothers, Ernest of Milwaukee, William of Chilton, and John and James of this city. Mr. Griem played an important part in the civic and political growth of this community. He was alderman for four years, a director in the Peoples State Bank, and president of the New Holstein Canning Co. for five years. He was also a member of the New Holstein Association of Commerce. It was planned to hold the funeral services on Friday afternoon, but complete arrangements are pending.
