Frederick W. Gott, 86, a retired guard of the Michigan reformatory, died

for several years, later moving into Ionia where Mr. Gott was employed as a 
guard at the Michigan reformatory for over 30 years.  Mrs. Gott died in 1936.  
Mr. Gott was a member of the Maccabees.

Surviving him is a daughter, Mrs. Clara Higley, of Grand Rapids; eight 
grandchildren; three great grandchildren; one sister, Mrs. Clara Yeomans, of
