Frank T. Gleason, long time resident and business man of Lyons, a veteran of 
the Civil war, and member of the old grocery firm of Dougherty & Gleason, died 
on Friday night at the age of 73 years. Mr. Gleason enlisted in 61 in Co. B., 
Eighth Michigan Infantry. He was wounded in the Battle of the Wilderness, and 
was taken prisoner and lay eight months in Andersonville prison. The wife and 
two daughters survive, the daughters being, Mrs. Frank Hale of Lyons and Mrs. 
Elmer Hale of this city. Deceased enlisted in same company, at same time, with 
Samuel Stowell of Easton, and they were companions throughout the war, as they 
have been greatly attached as friends since. He was a staunch friend, and 
though he had passed the allotted age of three score years and ten, his passing
