DEATH CLOSES USEFUL CAREER
A.E. Manchester Had Been With Same Corporation for 54 Years.

Albert E. Manchester, general superintendent of motive-power of the Milwaukee road died last night in the home of his daughter, Mrs. Harry E. Mooney, 2619 Wells street. He had been ill two weeks. He was 70 years old.

Mr. Manchester had been in the employ of the road for fifty-four years. It was the only job he ever had. By home study and hard work he earned the promotion from a machinist to the position he held at the time his illness prompted his retirement.

Besides Mrs. Mooney, he is survived by two sons, A. V. Manchester, Minneapolis, former master mechanic of the Milwaukee road, and T. H. Manchester, Chicago, mechanical engineer of the Chicago Car Heating company.

Funeral Tomorrow at 2 P. M.
The funeral will be held Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, with services in Wesley M. E. church, Grand avenue and Twenty-fifth street, the Rev. William W. Moore officiating. Burial will be in Forest Home Cemetery. Members of La Fayette [sic] lodge, A. F. & A. M., of which Mr. Manchester was a charter member, will officiate at the grave. The pallbearers will be prominent railroad men.

On Dec. 16, 1864, then only 16 years old, he entered the employ of the Milwaukee road at Portage, Wis. After several years of service, he was transferred to Minneapolis. Diligent work won him a promotion to general foreman at the shops at Mason City, Ia. It was during his short stay in Mason City that he was elected mayor of the city. He was forced to leave the city upon his appointment to district master mechanic which took him to Dubuque, Ia.

Came Here in 1893.
Twenty-nine years after becoming an employee of the road, Mr. Manchester came to Milwaukee to take the position of assistant superintendent of motive power. That was in the spring of 1893.

Home study and being "always on the job" won for him the favor of road officials and fifteen years after his appointment to assistant superintendent, he was promoted to superintendent of motive power.

Acute illness, which had its inception on April 16, prompted him to retire. Before his retirement a new position was created by Milwaukee road officials, that of general superintendent of motive power, to which Mr. Manchester was appointed.

Mr. Manchester was the guest of honor at a banquet in the Hotel Pfister on Dec. 16, 1914, which marked the fiftieth anniversary of his entering the employ of the Milwaukee road. The banquet had been arranged by officers of the Milwaukee road and many prominent railroad officials of the country were present.

An Officials Appreciation.
In response to an invitation from an officer of the Milwaukee road, Frederick D. Underwood, president of the Erie road wrote: "I don't mind telling you that it is twenty-nine years ago since he (Mr. Manchester) was very busy getting out engines at Mason City, for the transportation department to use and abuse in bucking snow and boiling hard water, and while the overalls he then wore now be tight fit, his hat has never grown too small."

"That's a good reason why he lasted fifty years-and a plenty good one- why he should be tendered a banquet- and in all fifty of them  he has grown upward in his work-and into the hearts of his friends."

Mr. Manchester was a big man, physically and mentally. His idea of justice was high and he had won the respect of all men he came in contact.

In addition to his officiating with the La Follette lodge, he was a member of the Master Mechanics' association and the Western Railway club, he was a former president of both, the Master Car Builders' association and president of the Wisconsin Mutual Loan and Building society.

Had Been In Failing Health For Many Years - Funeral Monday Afternoon

The death of Mrs. Chas. L. Berry occurred Friday afternoon, Feb. 26, 1909, at 1 o'clock, at the family home in Ft. Winnebago. The direct cause of her death was pneumonia, but she had been in failing health since the month of September, 1906, when nervous prostration afflicted her. A little over a year ago, she had the misfortune to fall while she was descending the cellar stairs, having nearly reached the bottom when the mis-step was made. Though falling but a slight distance a fracture of the left hip was sustained. Since then a gradual decline was noticeable and on Wednesday last her condition became serious, pneumonia developing so rapidly that she passed away on Friday.

Mary Georgiana [sic] Shaw was the daughter of George and Mary A. Shaw, both of whom have passed to their reward. She was born Nov. 14, 1850, at Beaver Dam, Wis., and came with her parents to the town of Ft. Winnebago in May, 1867, settling on a farm. With the exception of a short residence in the town of Buffalo, she has resided there ever since and was widely known throughout that township. On May 6, 1875, she was married to Chas. L. Berry, who survives to mourn her loss.

Mrs. Berry leaves, besides her husband, two sons, Fred G. and Lemuel S. who resided at home, and one daughter, Mrs. Jay B. Cook of this city. also one sister, Miss Lucy E. Shaw of Boyceville, Wis. Miss Shaw has constantly been at her sister's bedside, having come on Dec. 7 to administer to her, and the tenderest of care was cheerfully given until death released the weary, patient sufferer.

He was the only son of Lemuel and Eliza Berry, and had one sister, Ella, who died about twenty years ago.

Padley in the sewing machine and music business in which they continued for several years.

On May 6, 1875, he was united in marriage with Georgia Shaw, who died Feb. 26, 1909. They moved to a farm in the town of Buffalo, Marquette county. To this union were born three children. Fred G. Berry, now residing in the town of Fort Winnebago; Mrs. J. B. Cook and Lemuel S. Berry, both of this city, all of whom survive, together with three granddaughters and one grandson, to mourn their loss.

In 1881, they moved to a farm in Fort Winnebago where he had since made his home, until about seven years ago, when failing health necessitated his retirement from active labor and he came to Portage to make his home with his daughter. His son Lemuel and the daughter were with him when the end, due to heart failure, came very suddenly and unexpectedly.
