LONG ILLNESS ENDS IN DEATH ON SUNDAY
Death came Sunday morning at 9:30 to George Stephenson, 68, in the M&M hospital, after a prolonged and painful illness. For thirteen months, he had been confined in the hospital until three years ago, when he was removed to his home. He moved about with difficulty, using crutches.
Last March, he suffered a stroke of paralysis and his condition at that time was regarded as extremely critical and his death was momentarily expected. He rallied, however, and a month later was again removed to the M&M hospital. Last Thursday, he suffered another stroke and from then until the time of death, his condition was critical. He had resided here for forty-four years and for many years, had charge of the Seven Mile farm on the Menominee side of the river.
The survivors are the widow and the following children:
Scott [Charles] Stephenson of this city;
Mrs. J. Hambuechen of LaCrosse;
Mrs. George Innes,
Mrs. Edna Ford
and Mrs. Henry Bielefeld, all of Milwaukee;
brother Scott Stephenson of this city
and a sister Mrs. D.J. {Sarah} McKay all of this city.
He was a cousin of the late U.S. Senator Isaac Stephenson, who generously remembered him in his will.
The body was taken to L.D. Martin's undertaking establishment and this afternoon was removed to the family residence, 716 Jackson Street.
The funeral will be held from the home Tuesday afternoon at 3:30, the Rev. Kirby Chapman of the Baptist church, who ministered to him during his illness, officiating.
Burial will be made in Woodlawn cemetery
