OBITUARY
HAYES PIONEER IS VICTIM OF HEART FAILURE
Webster Helms Died Last Week at Age of 71 Years
A pioneer resident of Hayes died last week at his home from the effects of heart
disease and will be sadly missed by his many friends.

Webster Helms was bom in Howell, Michigan, April 2, 1847, and had he lived until
April 2, 1918, he would have been 71 years of age. He moved to Howell with his
parents, when but a young boy, into Gratiot county, which was then nothing but a
wilderness and here he was united in marriage to Miss Margaret Fairchild.

To this union were born three children—Mrs. Mary E. Folander, of MacLeod,
Alberta, Canada, Bert Helms and Mrs. Lulu Monty, of Charlevoix.

Mr. Helms had been a resident of Hayes and Barnard for fifteen years. Besides
his three children, his wife and nine grandchildren survive him.

The funeral was held Friday, Rev. C. E. Taggart officiating, and the remains
interred in Brookside.
