Portland Weekly Observer, 18 Apr 1883

Died – At the residence of his brother, Levi, Israel Phillips.  The deceased 
was born in Seneca Co., New York, April 8th, 1810, being at the time of his 
death, 73 years old.  He came to Michigan in 1842 and settled in southwest 
Danby upon the Sherman farm.  Two wives and four children went from time to 
eternity before him.  During the ten weeks or more of his sickness he suffered 
intensely, and yet with patience.  In life he acknowledged he had been a great 
sinner, but he heartily repented and gave himself up for Christ, being much in 
prayer and exhorting his daughters and others to live Christian lives.  His 
funeral was attended at his brothers residence, April 13th, 1883; sermon from 
He. III-xii and xii.
