Ionia SEntinel - Thursday, June 28, 1883

Mr. Jacobs, who lives on east Main street, who has been sick for several 
weeks, got up around 3 o'clock Friday morning, saying he was going to build 
a fire. When his wife got up some time afterwards he had disappeared, going 
off barefooted. He was tracked to the railroad track, and there the trace 
was lost, he has not been found yet, though diligent search has been made. 
It is feared that he has been drowned as he had been somewhat deranged.

The body of M. Jacobs, whose disappearance was mentioned Saturday, was found 
on Sunday forenoon by Wm. Wedge in a pool of water on the flats nearly 
directly south of the residence of deceased. It is supposed that in a fit of 
aberration he threw himself into the water and was drowned. The funeral 
services were held yesterday.
