Arthur Lind dies in Ionia 

Arthur S. Lind, aged 68, 206 East Lincoln, Ionia, passed away at his home Monday

Holmes Lind near Clarksville and lived most of his life in Ionia County.  He
attended South Boston, & graduated from Clarksville High School, moving with his
family to Ionia in 1918.  He was married to Margaret Cottingham, October 14,
1920, in Ionia and she preceded him in death earlier this year.  

Mr. Lind worked at an Ionia shoe store until moving to Lansing in 1927 at which
time he was employed by the State department of agriculture.  He returned to
Ionia in 1933 and was employed by Grand Valley Packing Company and successor,

Corp., as a bookkeeper until his retirement in Mach of this year.  He was a
member and past exalted ruler of the Ionia Elks Lodge and served as secretary
for many years, and chairman of its major projects.  He was a member of the
Masonic Lodge, F. & A.M., and the Knights Templar.  As a scoutmaster he was
active in the work many years, and was assistant director of 1930.  He was also
prominent as a baseball catcher in his younger days.  

Mr. Lind is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Shirley Brown; two sisters, Mrs. John
