This time it is William D. Cavanaugh, son of Samuel Cavanaugh, who lives on West Washington street. A message received here this morning said: “Will Cavanaugh killed at Pittsburg Wire answer to Youngstown, Ohio.” The father left this afternoon for Youngstown, where the burial will take place. Will was born in Ionia 35 years ago the twentieth of this month and lived here until eleven years ago, when he permanently located at Youngstown, where he was married. The wife and an adopted child survive. Will was an electrician by trade, and only recently moved from Youngstown to Pittsburg, where he had a position with an electrical power company. No particulars are given in the message, but it is naturally supposed he was electrocuted while at work for the company. Mr. and Mrs. Cavanaugh visited in Ionia the last time two years ago.
