For the cause of death I'm at a loss ☹. You read "Abschlaachung" - I have nothing better to offer - but have never heard this before and cannot find it anywhere.

I have been told the following:
Hans Rudolf Sidler died from
Abschlaachung which is also referred to as Auszehrung, Abzehr, or Schwindsucht. He died from the getting thinner and thinner, which in those times was often caused by tuberculosis. In the 1800s TB killed one out of every seven people living in Europe and the United States.
Thank you!!!! KG

I have read this - but still have never heard this expresssion - nor find it in any of my sources: "Auszehrung" would fit the circumstances, but is just speculation.
