Friends of Isaac Agar were shocked early "Sunday evening when news reached Cass City that he had passed away unexpectedly that afternoon at his home at 301 N. State St., Ann Arbor. Mr. Agar was in his usual health Sunday morning, ate a hearty dinner and was taken ill suddenly, passing away before physicians, who were hastily summoned, arrived at his home. A dilated heart is given as the cause of death.

The remains were brought to the home of his brother, Robt. Agar at Cass City Tuesday evening and funeral services were conducted by Rev. A. G. Newberry at the Presbyterian
church on Wednesday afternoon. Members of Cass City Lodge, I. O. O. F., of which Mr. Agar was a member, attended the service in a body.

Isaac Agar was born in McGillvray township, Ontario, on Jan. 2, 1866, and came to Evergreen township, Sanilac county, Michigan, in 1881. On Nov. 18, 1903, he was united in marriage with Miss Lucy Terry. Mr. Agar gave up farming in Evergreen in 1904 to come to Cass City with his brother, Robert; as a partner and they conducted a feed barn here for several years. Mr. Agar later purchased his brother's interest and conducted the business in his own name for a few years, disposing of the property about three years ago to James Whale. He followed farming for a few years until his health made it necessary to give up that pursuit for light work. The family moved to Ann Arbor last September. Besides his widow, he leaves five children, Thelma, Marion, Ruth, Frank and Grant; two brothers, Robt. Agar, st, of Cass City and John Agar of Colling, and one sister Mrs. Frank (Ann) Auslander of Shabbona.
