Harvey Lute Morse, 60 year old Ionia county fruit grower, died at his home in 
Ionia township Thursday morning at 12:30 o’clock following a cerebral 
hemorrhage.  He had been in ill health for the past three years and especially 
during the past spring.

Born May 6, 1880, the son of Myron and Elizabeth Morse, of Orleans, he has 
spent the greater part of his life in this county.  August 4, 1904, he was 
married to Eleanor E. Hall.  The couple first settled in Battle Creek, out of 
where Mr. Morse was employed as an engineer for the Grand Trunk railway.  He 
was an engineer for six year and they lived in Battle Creek for 12 years.  
They also lived in Detroit for one year.  They have lived at their present 
home for the past twenty years.  He attended the Ionia Methodist church and 
was a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers.  As a 
hobby, he spent much time inventing mechanical contrivances.

Surviving are the widow, Eleanor, one sister, Mrs. Nora Taggart, of State 
street, one brother, Charles of Hackett street, and one niece, Marian Morse 
Robertson, of Dearborn.

Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon from the home in Ionia township

be held at Orleans cemetery.  Bearers will be Charles Morse, Louis Hall, Frank
