Funeral Rites Wednesday for William Inman

Death Sunday, closed a career of unusual civic and public service, when William 
Inman, 351 Lafayette street, passed away after an illness of several years 
duration, his condition becoming acute only during the past few months.

Funeral services were held Wednesday from the house, Rev. Willard K. Spencer 
officiating.  Pall bearers were Fred Cutler, Eugene Vohlers, Robert Baerd, Fred 
Catt, Heber Waldron and Edward Marshal.  Interment was made in Highland Park 
cemetery.

Mr. Inman leaves a wife and three children, Jay and Fred, of Saginaw, and a 
daughter, Bessie, of Cleveland, the former being unable to be here for the 
funeral owing to an accident which he sustained a few weeks ago.

For eighteen years, Mr. Inman represented the 4th ward in the city, being re-
elected term after term and serving his constituents with excellent 
satisfaction.  Until incapacitated by illness he was employed for years as a 
lineman on the Pere Marquette.

Mr. Inman was born in New York, coming to Michigan in 1874 and has made Ionia 
his home since that time.  He was a member of both the Odd Fellows and Ladies 
of Security fraternal orders.

The deceased had for years been a commanding figure in the political life of 
the city, and so well did he respond to the will of his followers, that of late 
years he was returned to office without opposition.
