The Belding Banner, Thursday, January 17, 1907
Last Monday morning, just before the arrival of the 10:15 train, Paul Potter, 
a brother of Ed Potter, when about to purchase a ticket for his home in 
Indiana, was stricken with heart disease, and falling on the floor of the 
depot expired in a few moments.

Mr. Potter was 52 years of age and was a resident of Wauwaukee, Ind., and had 
been to Lakeview to attend the funeral of another brother, Judson Potter, who 
was formerly a resident of Belding and buried at Altona on Friday.  He and his 
sister, Mrs. Paul Tyler of Mishawaukee, accompanied by her husband, were 
returning home and had stopped here to spend Sunday with their brother Ed.  

They had decided to leave for home on Monday morning and Mr. Potter, who was 
quite a heavy man, had walked from Ed’s residence on Pearl street to the depot 
and the hard walking had brought on a heart trouble of long standing.  He was 
just about to buy his ticket and had his hands in his pockets when he was 
stricken and fell.  Dr. Litle was called and worked over the unfortunate man 
for some time but the grim messenger had sealed his doom and he was carried 
back to the home of his brother, which he had left but a short time before in 
apparent health and good spirits.

Undertaker Foster took charge of the remains and they were taken to his home 
at Wauwaukee on Tuesday, where a devoted wife was awaiting the sad home coming.
