The Ionia Daily Sentinel-Standard, Thursday, January 31, 1924

The death of M. H. Dolphin occurred in a hospital at Ann Arbor during the 
night Tuesday.  Mr. Dolphin had only been in the hospital for treatment about 
two weeks.  The cause of death was given as cancer.

Mr. Dolphin was born near St. Joseph, and moved to Grand Rapids when about 16 
years of age.  He lived in that city until coming to Ionia to work about eight 
years ago.  He was connected in an executive way with the furniture industry 
in that city.  He was also greatly interested in the civic affairs of that 
city, and was a member of the board of health for four years. 

Mr. and Mrs. Dolphin and family moved to Ionia from Grand Rapids a few years 
ago, he having accepted a position with the E. H. Stafford Manufacturing 
company.  Some time ago while at work he was bruised on the face by a board.  
According to relatives, no attention was paid to it then, but later when a 
more serious aspect developed, on the advice of local doctors, Mr. Dolphin 
went to the Ann Arbor hospital, where physicians diagnosed his condition as 
cancer, and considered that an operation would be of no avail.

Mr. and Mrs. Dolphin have been attending the First Presbyterian church of this 
city.  He is survived by his widow and four children, Henry, Harriett, 
Catherine, and Clarence Dolphin, all at home.  He is also survived by three 
brothers, William and Leonard Dolphin of Grand Rapids, and Ben Dolphin, of 
Toledo, O., and two sisters, Mrs. James Totten and Mrs. Thomas McArthur, of 
Grand Rapids.

The body will be brought to Ionia from Grand Rapids Saturday morning and will 
be placed in the Presbyterian church.  The funeral service will be held there 
Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock.  The body was taken to Grand Rapids Wednesday 
due to the fact that many of the friends and relatives reside in that city.
