Another Invalid

Like Charles Maybaum, an invalid who survived his mother less than a year, August Schultz, Jr. followed his father to the grave — but even more quickly, and at a younger age.

I have only this brief, confusing death notice to go by, which suggests that in spite of being an invalid August Jr. was not in the family home when he died.


From the Hobart Gazette of 7 Nov. 1919.

Wherever he may have died, we know where he is now: beside his father in Mosier Cemetery, and but for the dates of birth you might think the two stones marked one grave.
