Ionia Standard, 24 Sep 1886

Kelsey – In Ionia, on Friday morning, Sept. 10th, after a brief illness, Fred 
Hall, only son of A.F. and N.B. Kelsey, aged 14 years.

In the mysterious death of young Kelsey, society, as well as his family has 
sustained an irreparable loss.  Few of his age have possessed such a rare 
combination of excellencies, or have given such bright promise of the future.  
He was a dutiful and loving son and an affectionate brother.  In the school he 
was a favorite with his fellow students and beloved by his teacher.  He was an 
excellent scholar, diligent in the pursuit of knowledge, in which he made 
uncommon attainments for one so young.  Above all he was a Christian from his 
earliest years and took an active part in the Student’s Christian association, 
of which he was a member.  Though his death has created a void in many hearts 
which cannot be filled he has left a noble example which still lives and will 
shed its influence around us to the end of time.
