    "DEATH OF A PROMINENT FARMER. L. J. Small, one of the well-to-do and respected farmers of Silver Lake Twp., died Tuesday from appendicitis. The deceased was 41 years of age, and leaves six orphaned children to mourn his sudden departure from this life. About two years ago the deceased was called upon to bury his beloved wife and since then has in the best manner possible cared for his children and looked after the farm work. Mr. Small was a member of the Workman Lodge and carried $2,000 of insurance. Master Workman Serle of this city has made several trips to the bedside of the dying man and saw that he was properly cared for and wanted for no thing that human hands could provide. The deceased was an honest, industrious man and well liked by his neighbors and his demise brings a cloud of sorrow upon the community." (newspaper date: 7 Feb 1902)
