Jaquith, who died at his home in Americus Thursday at midnight, was born in Cheshire county, N. H., January 3, 1828. His father was a shoemaker, who moved with his family to Edgar county, Ill., and here Mr. Jaquith received his early education. After a few years' residence here, the family moved to Albion, Mich., where his education was completed in what was at that time called the Albion boarding school, but which is now a Methodist institution. Mr. Jaquith was married in 1853 to Miss Elizabeth L. Henderson, at which time he was a clerk of the steamer Northern Indiana, on Lake Erie. Following this, he moved to Trenton, Mich., where he engaged in the general merchandise business until 1861, in which year, in the beginning of the Civil war, he enlisted in Company E, Fifteenth Michigan Infantry. He was commissioned captain of his company January 1, 1862, and was promoted to lieutenant colonel September 20, 1863. He resigned from the service June 1, 1864, on a surgeon's certificate of disability. Mr. Jaquith participated in the battles of Shiloh, Iuka, Corinth, Holly Springs, Davis Mills, Jackson, Resaca and Dallas, Ga., and was in the Siege of Vicksburg. After his discharge, Mr. Jaquith returned to Trenton, Mich. and continued in the mercantile business until 1868, when he moved to farm near Flat Rocks, Mich. Here, Feb. 10, 1870, Mrs. Jaquith died. Their children are Frank E. Jaquith, Mrs. Belle Royal, who is dead; Walter, Mrs. Helen House, of Kalamazoo, Mich.; Mrs. Grace Woodmansee, of Americus, and R. H. Jaquith, of Emporia. In 1871 Mr. Jaquith married Miss Maria Nowland, and to them four children were born--E. W. Jaquith, Fred and Gordon, who are dead, and Miss Jessie M. Jaquith. In 1876, the Jaquiths moved to Lyon county, and lived on a farm until Mr. Jaquith's health failed, when they moved to Americus. He has been a good citizen through his long life in whatever community he has lived, and leaves his children with the memory of an unblemished character. He was a devoted member of the Methodist church. The funeral was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Methodist church of Americus, and the services were conducted by Rev. Funston, pastor of that church. The Masonic order, of which Mr. Jaquith had been a member since before the Civil war, had the services in charge. The interment was in the Americus cemetery.
