The funeral services for William J. Mickel, of Grand Rapids, will be held Saturday
afternoon at 2 o’clock from the Kilstrom funeral parlors at Grand Rapids.

Mr. Mickel was born in Ionia and was reared on a farm on the Steele road which was
then owned by his father, now the property of Dan McQuaid, and received his early
education in the Ionia schools, graduating with the class of 1889.  He early
identified himself with military circles, and was a member of the old Ionia
lightguards.  He became a soldier in the Spanish-American war, and served with
Company F., Thirty-second Michigan Volunteer infantry.  He was a past
inspector-general of the United States War Veterans, and had served as a deputy food
inspector, and the last six years he had been employed in the internal revenue
department.  His illness had lasted over a period of six years.

He is a cousin of Perry Mickel, of Ionia.  

His family of a widow, two daughters, Wilma Ann and Dorothy Louise and one son
Blair, survive him.  A sister, Mrs. J.J. Kollen, and a brother Charles, of Grand
Rapids, are also left.
