A Mr. Loomis, a respected farmer living in the town of Lyons, Ionia Co., about five miles from the village of Matherton, we learn committed suicide on Friday morning, the 19th inst., by hanging himself in an out building near his house. He, as well as his family, embracing a wife and several small and dependent children, had been sick much of the time for two months back, and our informant says that no possible cause for his committing such an act can be surmised by his neighbors, unless the ill health of his family, and the consequent derangement of his financial affairs had rendered him indifferent to life and the claims of his family upon it. – St. Johns Republican File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/mi/ionia/obits/l/loomis29057nob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/mifiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
