Lowell Ledger, 21 May 1953

Charley Compton, who has been making his home with a sister-in-law, Mrs. 
Elizabeth Compton, and her son, Clare, near White’s Bridge, died suddenly of a 
heart attack Tuesday afternoon as he was driving a tractor in a field on her 
farm.

James Heether, a neighbor, saw the tractor in the fence row and investigating 
found Compton lying nearby on the ground.  A doctor who was called to the scene 
pronounced death had been instantaneous.  The body was taken to Fitzjohn 
Funeral Home in Belding where services will be held Friday afternoon at 2:00.

Charley, son of Eber and Sarah Compton, was born July 3, 1879 in Keene 
township.  He was one of nine children only one of whom survives, Mrs. Lyda 
Barr of Grand Rapids.  Other survivors are nieces and nephews.
