HEAT IS BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN PARTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATH OF SOUTH SIDE WOMAN The terrible heat of yesterday and last night is believed to have been partially responsible for the death of Mrs. Anton Tomchek,(sic) Marshall street, who was found by her husband during the night. Mr. Tomchek had sought relief from the heat in the yard and was absent from the house for some time and upon returning found his wife dead on a couch. Although Mrs. Tomchek had not been in good health for some time, her condition had caused no alarm. Mrs. Tomchek was 52 years of age and a native of Newton. She is survived by her husband and three children, Mrs. Paul Pisheck, Newton; Mrs. F. Schippert, Nellsville and Peter Tomchek of Chicago, the latter being attached to the police department of that city as a detective. The funeral will be held Thursday morning at St. Casimir’s church Newton, the funeral party leaving the home at 7:30.

They are John D. Cichy?, Necedah, Wis.; George and Walter, residing in Nebraska; Mrs. Martin Kappas?, Waukesha? And Mrs. Jos. Leubke?, South ? street this city. [last sentence illegible, think it says that all here and will attend the funeral] Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, August 01, 1917, Page 1
