Philip Damm, formerly residents of Campbellsport, died at her home in Fond du Lac Monday
night at 11 o'clock, following an illness of about a year's duration.
Mrs. Damm was born in town Auburn on May 30, 1867, and has made this vicinity
her home practically all her life. She was married to Philip Damm twenty-five years ago
and resided in this village until summer of 1910, when they moved to Fond du Lac where
they have resided since.
Mrs. Damm was wellknown throughout this section of the state, she, with her
husband, having conducted the Star hotel in this village for many years, their hostelry
being a favored stopping place for traveling men, among whom she had established quite a
reputation as a chef.
Besides her husband and one sin, Arthur J., who is with the Engineering corps
at Camp Logan, Hauston, Texas, many other friends and relatives in this vicinity will
mourn her loss.
The body will be brought here Saturday noon and the funeral held immediately
after from the Reformed church. Interment will take place in the Union cemetery.
