The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, Saturday, August 28, 1948

James K. Nichols, 56, died suddenly at his home at 422 Pleasant street 
Saturday morning at 6 o’clock.  He had been suffering from heart trouble for 
over a year.  He was born September 15, 1891, in Ionia, the son of Mr. and 
Mrs. George E. Nichols, former Ionia county prosecuting attorney.

At the time of his death, Nichols operated the Michigan Credit service.  He 
was graduated from Olivet college in 1914, where he was on the football and 
baseball teams.  In 1916, he was graduated from the University of Michigan 
with a degree in law.

For over 20 years he had been active in Michigan racing circles and was 
recently racing a four-year-old Mary Allertan Guy, with much success.  It has 
been said that Nichols could recite from memory the complete pedigree of any 
race horse in the country.

He is survived by his wife, Evelyn; a daughter, Patricia, at home; four sons, 
George E. Nichols of Port Clinton, Ohio, and James K. Nichols, Jr., Arthur R. 
and Robert D., all at home; and two grandchildren.

Funeral services will be conducted Tuesday afternoon at 2 o’clock from the 
Myers funeral home with the Rev. H. E. Ellis of Belding officiating.  
Interment will be in the family lot at Highland park cemetery.
