Laid to Rest

Thursday noon the remains of the late S.W. Thompson arrived, accompanied by his sons, A.W. and E.G. Thompson from Grand Rapids. They were met at the depot by S.C. Thompson, family and quite a number of people and escorted to the grave. Father Hines conducted the services.

S.W. Thompson came here in 1869; he conducted a lumber business in Grand Traverse Co., and at Green Lake, for 18 years and is well and favorably known by all; he was a man who made friends everywhere.

Of late years he had made the Pacific coast his home, but for a while he had been residing with his children in Grand Rapids and Manistee. He was well and able to cast his vote on election day, and it was a great surprise to everyone to hear of his death which resulted from abscess of the lungs superinduced by la grippe.

Six children survive him, five sons and one daughter, Byron Thompson, who is South now but his home is at Grand Rapids, A.W. Thompson Mrs. Lillie M. Johnson, of Grand Rapids, E.G. Thompson, at Leganier, Indiana, John Thompson, of Colorado, and Stacy Thompson, of this city.

We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved children in this sad hour of affliction.
