OBITUARY
DEATH CLAIMED GEORGE AGER TUESDAY, JAN. 10
His Death Marks Passing of Another Pioneer Resident

Charlevoix citizens and residents of the Barnard district today mourn the death
of George Ager, who passed away at his home in this city at 11 o'clock Tuesday
morning, January 10th. Mr. Ager had been in poor health for nearly two years and
during that time was stricken with paralytic strokes three different times, the
last resulting in his death. During these two years of illness, Mr. Ager was
partially crippled and for the last six months was totally blind. But in spite
of his suffering he was constantly cheerful, a spirit which won the hearts of
all who knew him.

Deceased was born in New York state in the year 1852 and was 75 years, one month
and 17 days old at the time of death. At the age of 14, he came to Charlevoix
with his parents and settled on a farm near Barnard, where he resided until
eight years ago, at that time coming to Charlevoix to make his home. He was
united in marriage to Miss Jennie Willis in 1882. To this union were born six
children, four of whom survive, viz: William and Henry of Charlevoix, Edward of
East Jordan, George of Grand Rapids, and Mrs. Ed. Heise of Charlevoix. A son,
Hubert, died 22 years ago.

Funeral services will be held from the home 1100 State street, at 1:00 o’clock
Thursday afternoon, Rev. John E. Lockyer of the Methodist church
