HERMAN FINGER

Times and Gazette

April 15, 1882

Herman Finger, the adopted son of Theodore Finger of Redwood, was killed on last Friday afternoon while at his work in the store of Holbrook, Merrill and Co. of San Francisco, by the fall of a heavy piece of machinery which he was loading on a truck.

The deceased having been raised in this community, was well known and has many friends. He was a remarkably steady man but the care of a wife and four children had left but little leisure for accumulation. He was but 35 years old and just in his prime. (interment at Union Cemetery.)
