4754 | from "The Lyons Western Argus", 7 Jan 1935 (fultonhistory.com) Died in this city on Thursday the 25th inst. Mr. H.K. Avery, aged about 30. Mr. Avery was a man highly respected in this community, where he had resided for several years past. He has left a wife and 5 small children to mourn the loss of a kind and affectionate husband and parent, on whom they have hitherto depended for support. The suddenness and particular circumstances of his death, made it necessary to summon an inquest to examine into the cause and a person in this city has been put under arrest, and held to bail under suspicion of having occasioned it. (We copy the above from the Detroit Journal and Advertiser on the 26th ult. Mr. Avery was formerly a resident of this village, and has many companions, and devote friends. among our citizens. We knew him well, and it pains us to the quick, to record the details of his sudden exit from time to eternity, as we learn these from private letters received here yesterday morning. We understand that during the evening of the 24th ult., Mr. Avery happened in at grocery, in Detroit, where he met Sheldon McKnight, editor of the "Free Press," in that city, and where a political altercation ensued, in which the deceased made some unfortunate personal allusions to McKnight. McKnight gave him a blow, which knocked him down, and he was taken up, and carried into a pack room senseless. In the course of a short time, however, he came to, and walked home; and after soaking his feet in warm water, etc. retired to bed, without advising his wife of any thing particular had happened, merely complaining of a headache. Toward evening, his wife discovered that something was the matter with him; and, on lighting a candle, found him in the last agonies of death, beyond the hopes of relief. A post-mortem examination of the head showed a fracture of the back of the skull, occasioned by the fall from the blow, and considerable extravasated blood within the skull. The verdict of the Coroner's jury was that "Henry K Avery came to his death by a fall upon the floor caused by a blow given by Sheldon McKnight." McKnight has been arrested as will be seen by the above notice. The deceased was much esteemed while resident here; and his memory will be cherished by most of our citizens who had the pleasure of his acquaintance.) - Eds. Argus | Avery, Henry Knowles (I26578)

4792 | from "The Milford Times", 21 Dec 1901 (Digital Michigan Newpapers at digmichnews.cmich.edu) Seymour H. Baker. The body of Seymour Baker, whose death was noted last week, arrived home Monday and the funeral service was held Tuesday from the home of Joseph Leonard at 10 o'clock from the Highland Station Congregational church at 10:30. The attendance at the service was unusually large. Seymour H. Baker was born in Highland Feb. 27, 1884. His short life was spent in the near vicinity of his birthplace. His illness dates from only three short months ago, when he was stricken with hemorrhage of the lungs. Hoping a change in climate would benefit him, he started for California on the 22nd of October last and went to the home of his brother George, where he died Dec. 9. In the early evening the angel of death quietly entered his room and called him to the heavenly home so quietly that there was not time to say a last good bye to the loving friends left behind. While it was feared by many that his illness would prove to be fatal, the sudden death came as a surprise and shock, even to those nearest to him. His circle of friends was large, and to them, his memory will be that of one of whom no one could speak ill. His loss will be deeply felt not only by his brothers and the sister-who has been to him a mother as well - but by a host of loving friends who sorrow for his untimely death.
