Isn't there a possibility that Germany Schaefer was killed by the Spanish Flu. He was suffering from TB and went to upstate New York, where the air was said to be cleaner, to recover. Schaefer died early in 1919 and who isn't to say that his condition wasn't exacerbated by the pandemic. And yes, I know that the Spanish Flu probably didn't originate in Spain.

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. Last edited by BillyCoxDodgers3B; 02-06-2021 at 04:33 PM. |
