Funeral of Jesse Loomis.

The remains of Jesse Loomis arrived in the city at 12:50 today, from Cheyenne,
Wyoming, accompanied by Major Arthur P. Loomis, and were taken at once to the
Berlin farm home . . . [unreadable lines] . . . four o’clock this afternoon.

A large number of the family friends from Ionia attended.  The discourse was by
Rev. M.L. Fox of the M.E. church, and the remains were laid beside the father
and mother, in the Balcom cemetery.

The bereavement was so generally expressed when the sad information reached
Ionia, that it seemed even the sealed cars might hear it.  Jesse Loomis was a
bright student.  His tastes were literary as well as social, and in the swift
pilgrimage “from the rosy dawn of birth to death’s sad night,” he wrought much –
quite as much for others as for himself, perhaps.  He was a young man with
enlarged views and of fine application.  The young life is closed, but the
hearts of all who knew him are gladdened by the conviction that with him “all is
well.”

[Transcriber's Note:  There is a notation on the obituary card that he was the
son of James W. and Mary F. Loomis.]
