PALO

Mr. Orson Wheaton, who died last Thursday at the home of his son, was the oldest 
man for many miles around. He was born in New York City in 1798. At 12 years of 
age he went on a sailing vessel and was gone two years and when he returned 
could find no trace of his parents, and never heard of them afterwards. He came 
to Michigan in 1856, where he resided to the day of his death. He leaves two 
sons, Rial and Stephen, who with their families are all the relatives the old 
gentleman knew anything about. The funeral services were held Sunday at the 
Baptist church, conducted by Rev. J. Bailey.
