He came to Michigan a good many years ago, having driven to the state from Nebraska by way of Ohio with a team of black horses, which lived to be more than 30 years of age, and a canopy-top buggy, which he continued to use until ill health compelled him to retire from farming not very long ago. He owned a good farm but lived alone, his nearest relative, Mrs. Daniel Stoudt, senior, having died some years ago. The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon at 1 o’clock, sun time, from the home of his niece, Mrs. Charles Ludwick, and burial will be made in North Plains cemetery.
