“John Eberlein, who enlisted in the 2d U. S. Calvary from this city 5 years ago, returned home on Monday from Boise City, Idaho, where his regiment has been stationed for the past four years. His term of enlistment expired Jan. 11th. Sunday, Jan. 12th, John started for home, but reached the Sierras just in time for the big snow blockade, and was snowed in eight days. He will make but a lightning visit here, planning to return to Idaho early in the spring, where he says times are better for the workingmen.”

Frederick Augustus Eberlein, pioneer Shawano county fur farmer, died at Shawano at 2:15 o’clock Friday afternoon after a illness of one and one-half years. He was 81.

Mr. Eberlein was born in the town of Herman in Shawano county on March 19, 1875, the son of Frederick and Catherine Eberlein. He lived in the Shawano area all his life and attended schools in Shawano and received his law degree from the University of Wisconsin.

IN NOVEMBER 1900, he was married to the former Kitty King who passed away in 1903. He was married to Alwina Duecker on April 20, 1910, and they spent eight winters in Arizona for reasons of Mr. Eberlein’s health.

Active in civic affairs,  Mr. Eberlein was District Attorney in Shawano county for four years and a member of the Masonic lodge and the Rotary club. A lawyer by profession, he was the senior member of the Eberlein and Eberlein law firm  from 1904 to 1917 and he also served on the Shawano County Board for several years. He practiced with his brother, the late Michael G. Eberlein, who was circuit judge at the time of his death.

Ill health forced him to discontinue the practice of law when doctors advised him to be out of doors. He then (1917) gave up the legal profession for fur farming and cattle raising. He also was interested in potato farming.

He was very active in the Wisconsin Fur Breeders Association, serving as its secretary for many years. He was an optimist by nature and did not allow his physical handicaps to seriously curb him in his work or dim his hopeful outlook on life.

By a strange coincidence, Frederick A. Eberlein was succeeded in the office of district attorney by a nephew 50 years to the date that the elder Eberlein took the office himself.  The nephew is the present district attorney, Frederic C. Eberlein. F. A. Eberlein took over the office January 5. 1903, and “Fritz” assumed similar duties Jan. 5, 1953.

Survivors include his wife and a son by his first marriage, Frederic Eastman Eberlein, a fur farmer at Shawano R. 1. Also surviving are two grandchildren and a brother, Charles Eberlein of Shawano.

FUNERAL SERVICES will be held 2 p.m. Monday at the Schweers Funeral Home in Shawano with the Rev. W. E. Williamson officiating. Burial will be in Woodlawn Cemetery in Shawano. Masonic rites will be held at graveside.

Friends may call at the Schweers Funeral Home from this evening until the time of the service.

Members of Lodge 170 F and A.M. are asked to meet at the Masonic Temple at 1:30 p.m. Monday to prepare for participation in the rites for Mr. Eberlein.
