Michael Burns Dies Suddenly At Home Of Son In Hubbardston

Michael Burns died at the home of his son, John, Wednesday about 10 a.m.  He was
born in Monahan county, Ireland and came to the United States when 15 years of
ago.  They first settled in Verno_?, soon moving to New York state where they
stayed a few years then coming to Michigan and settled west of Hubbardston.

Thirty years ago he bought the farm he died on.  His wife died in 1900.  Seven
children were born, all living except one, three boys, Frank, Edward and John
owning farms in this locality, James, the local undertaker, Bert living in
Detroit and one daughter, a Dominican Sister in Monroe, Wis.  Mr. Burns has
always been active until the past two weeks.  His greatest worry was that his
son wouldn’t keep enough work on hand for him to do.  He was in his 92nd year. 
Arrangements have not been made for the funeral at this time.

[Transcriber's Note:  There is a notation on the obituary card that he was
buried in St. John the Baptist Cemetery.]
