DEATH OF JAMES H. REDDING

	James H. Redding was born in Preble county, O., in the year 1823, and lived there 

with his father, the late B.M. redding, of this city, unil the year 1833, when
they came to 

Michigan and settled at Dayton, this county.  His father built the first saw
mill between 

this place and Chicago.  A few years later they took up a large tract of land on
Terre 

Coupe prairie and went to farming.  On his father's removal to this city he went
to farming 

for several years, until about  1864 when he came to his city and lived here
several years 

and then went to farming again and lived at Dayton until last January, when he
was taken 

sick and came to Niles and lived with his niece, Mrs. Emma Smith, until his
death, which 

occurred last Friday evening.  He was buried at Dayton, on Sunday, at 2 o'clock,
p.m.  Mr. 

Redding was a quiet, unobtrusive man, kind-hearted to a fault, always willing to
oblige and 

help his frineds when in need.  He never married until about 12 years ago, when
he was 

married to Mrs. Rozell, of Dayton, who survives him.
