Fred M. Ingersoll, early day settler of this section of Oklahoma, passed away at his home on South Cherokee street Tuesday afternoon. Death resulted from cancer of the stomach. His illness extended over a period of many weeks. He bore his suffering patiently and was ready to go when the summons came.
Funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon, at one o'clock, from the Methodist church. Rev. J. B. Stocking officiating. The body was interred in the Del Norte cemetery at Drummond, where the funeral cortege proceeded overland.
Mr. Frederick Marsh Ingersoll was born at Watertown, Mich., November 25, 1848. He moved with his parents to Chicago when he was a mere lad and later removed to Kansas, where they resided at different points, his father being a Congregational minister. In his early manhood he located at Clay Center, where he was married to Mrs. Matilda Newhard. They came to Oklahoma in 1893, locating on a school land farm a mile south and half mile east of Hennessey, where they resided about five years, disposing of their rights to the land to purchase a home in Hennessey, where they have since resided. Mr. Ingersoll served as street commissioner and as constable for several years, giving creditable service. He was a staunch friend and a good neighbor as well as a faithful and kind husband. His wife and four stepdaughters, a step-son, and a brother, survive him.
