Southworth The funeral of the late Joseph Southworth who was killed by lightning on Thursday of last week, was held on Monday, May 8, from the M. E. Church at Sterling. Rev. H. C. Elliott officiating. Joseph G. Southworth was born in the village of Deep River, Saybrook, Connecticut, and came to Michigan about 1850 and took an interest in the lumber business with his father, who them operated a saw mill in West Bay City. For several years he was active as a lumber scaler, but was compelled to give up the business because of the loss of his hearing, and total deafness soon caused him to give up his interest in the lumbering business. He was married to Mary Westbrook of Lapeer, MI 23 years ago and with his wife came to Deep River. After a residence of about two years they moved back to Bay City, where they lived for six years before moving back to Deep River, where they have since lived. He was a man of quiet disposition, a great student and a perfect gentleman. He was one of the best known men in Deep river Township, and was for many years post master at Deep River until the office was discontinued. He has for many years successfully followed the business of painting and paper hanging. He had for several years been director of the Deep River school and has held several other positions of trust. He leaves two sisters, Mrs. Mary A. Watrous and Mrs. M. E. Daglish, living in Bay City, and a wife, son, son Chester, and one daughter, Mrs. Johnson Orr, living at Deep River. The remains were interred in the Sterling Cemetery. The floral offerings, gifts of loving friends, were rich and beautiful. The funeral was exceptionally large.
