The Greenville Independent, Wednesday, April 4, 1894

Ex-Judge Louis S. Lovell of Ionia died at the Central hotel in Stanton last 
Friday at 3 p.m.  He was at Stanton to attend to some real estate business and 
was seemingly in good health.  He ate a hearty dinner at the hotel and, after 
attending to some business at the court house, immediately afterwards made the 
remark that he was not felling good and went back to the hotel.  He lay down 
on a bed.  Dr. Bachman was at once summoned, but the judge was past help and 
expired within fifteen minutes.  Apoplexy was the cause.

He was a well preserved man 77 years of age.  He moved to Ionia in 1841 with 
his father’s family and has since resided in that city.  Here he was admitted 
to the bar and commenced to practice his profession.  Under the Taylor-
Fillmore administration he was register of the United States land office at 
Ionia and in 1857 he was elected judge of the eighth judicial circuit and 
served for three terms.  He was candidate for re-election in 1881, but was 
defeated.  He was well known in Montcalm county over whose circuit court he 
presided so many years and was held in high respect.
