Died:- At his home near Akron, Oct. 27th, 1883, Alexander CURTIS, aged 67 years, 4 months and 25 days.
Henry township has lost another of its old and prominent citizens in the death of Alexander CURTIS, whose death occurred last Saturday morning at the residence of Mrs. HOOVER, his sister, living near Hoover Station. The deceased came from Ohio to this county many years ago and by frugality and industry in mercantile and farming pursuits, he accumulaed a vast property.
For several years he has been an invalid and sought health and comfort at many points of interest without avail. Whatever may have been his faults in life, they are largely obscured by the good he did in the community in which he lived so long. Knowing that death was near at hand he made his will some time ago, bequeathing his property to his children and his grandchildren. His funeral took place last Sunday and his remains found a resting place on the old homestead farm, one mile west of Akron, where rests those of his family who have preceded him to the unknown world. Mr. Curtis was 67 years of age.
