SUMMARY:Marathon County Historical Society presents History Speaks – The Krueger Shootout
DESCRIPTION:In September 1918\, a group of lawmen arrived at a farm outside Withee\, Wisconsin with the intention of arresting Ennis\, Leslie\, Louis and Frank Krueger for dodging the draft during the First World War. The situation escalated to the exchange of gunfire\, and the siege of the farmhouse by a large group of volunteers. For February’s History Speaks\, find out what happened and how it all fits into the wider story of life in Central Wisconsin during the First World War. \n\nWe will be joined by guest presenter Lee Kaschinska from the Colby Rural Arts Museum. Kaschinska developed his expertise on the Krueger shootout after a great deal of research on the story for the shootout’s 100th anniversary in 2018. He helped develop a short video about the event called “Hysteria” (which will be shown at the talk) and has presented the story across Central Wisconsin.\n\nThis History Speaks program is presented live at 2pm at the Woodson History Center (410 McIndoe Street\, Wausau)\, in conjunction with the Marathon County Public Library and sponsored by Janke Book Store. \n\nFor more information\, please call MCHS at 715-842-5750\, email us at info@marathoncountyhistory.org\, or visit our website at www.marathoncountyhistory.org.\nhttps://fb.me/e/3pXd5i8p8
