Michael Heeren died at his home in Grant township on Monday afternoon at five o'clock, at the advanced age of 87 years. His death was due chiefly to the weight of years. He had been ailing during the winter and had been under the care of a physician. Prior to a very short time ago he was exceedingly strong and rugged in health and his mind and faculties were keen and clear to the last. On the morning of the day he died he attended to some business matters and was apparently feeling pretty well. He was one of the oldest settlers in Plymouth county, having come here from Jones county nearly forty years ago, where he took up a homestead. He was a native of Germany and would have been eighty-eight years of age next July. He is survived by a son, John Heeren, of Grant township, and three daughters, Mrs. C. C. Frerichs and Mrs. Ben Specht, of Coleridge, Neb., and Mrs. Ben Doering, of Gregory county, South Dakota. He was twice married, his second wife having been Mrs. Pageler, and he was stepfather to the Pageler boys by whom he was regarded as a father. Mr. Heeren was highly respected by all who knew him and many tales of his goodness to those less fortunately circumstanced than he are told by old settlers. He always responded to the need of help among his neighbors when they were sick and in trouble long before tho reign of prosperity came to stay in Plymouth county, and lent a ready hand on every occasion. His death will be mourned by many relatives and friends. The funeral services were held yesterday at the Grant township Lutheran church and was very largely attended by old friends and neighbors.
