The Ionia Daily Sentinel-Standard, Saturday, April 30, 1921


The funeral services for Freddie Lewis, six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Hudson 
Lewis who went to his death in Grand river last Thursday, will be held Sunday 
afternoon at 3 o’clock from the home on Johnson street.  Since the finding of 
the body Friday noon there have been no developments in the case and there is 
no doubt in the minds of the family or officers that the boy wandered to his 
death while walking along the river.  Stories which gained circulation 
regarding the boy’s disappearance have been discarded by the officials.  
Coroner Boynton decided to hold no inquest.  The finding of the body, its 
location and the fact that the boy was seen on the river bank by a man passing 
on the high water road leave no doubt as to the manner in which he met his 
death.
