Prince Schaefer's obit lists cause of death as a hemorrhage, whereas his death certificate lists tuberculosis with the hemorrhage being a contributing factor.

It's funny you should bring this up, though, as besides Schaefer, two other young players come to mind who also died from TB/pneumonia in 1918: George Kaiserling and Newt Halliday.
