The Portland Observer, Thursday, July 31, 1924

Sylvester Manning, aged 65 years, former well known Portland resident died at 
Pontiac, Wednesday forenoon, following an illness of Bright’s disease.  The 
body arrived in Portland on the noon train today, and the funeral services 
will be held at the Congregational church Friday afternoon at two o’clock.

Mr. Manning had made Portland his home nearly all his lifetime, until 20 years 
ago.  He was an expert stone mason by trade, his labor having entered into the 
erection of many of Portland’s buildings.  For the past five years the family 
had been living at Pontiac.

Besides the widow, who accompanied the body to Portland, he is survived by two 
daughters and one son, Mrs. Bert McFadden and Burt Manning, of Lansing.  The 
other daughter was formerly Mrs. Joseph Telepa, and now resides at Pontiac.  
One brother, Charles, of Fowler, also survives.
