Tuesday, December 7, 1937 Rochester relatives yesterday received word of the death of Ed BITTERS, former resident of this city which occurred last Thursday at his home in Richmond, Ind. Although the brief message did not state the exact cause of Mr. Bitters’ demise it did state his death came suddenly. Funeral services were conducted Sunday at his home. The deceased who was the son of John and Sarah BITTERS, was born in Peru, Ind., and at the time of his death was in his early sixties, it was stated. Mr. Bitters resided in Rochester for a long number of years. From here he moved to Marion, Ind. and later to Richmond, where he was most successful in his business ventures in that city. He is survived by his wife, a son, and a brother Charles [BITTERS] of Jackson, Mich. George O. COFFIN, 62 year old, 2848 Central Avenue, Indianapolis, a summer resident of Lake Manitou for many years died Saturday in the United States Veterans Hospital in Chicago after an illness of one month friends in this city have been advised. Mr. Coffin was born in Richmond and was a charter member of the Eagles Lodge of Kokomo. He owned and operated the Opal Electric Manufacturing Company in Indianapolis many years. He retired four years ago. Mr. Coffin was a Spanish-American War veteran. Survivors are the widow, Mrs. Helen COFFIN; a daughter, Mrs. Ruth McDONALD; a sister, Mrs. William S. HABIG, all of Indianapolis, and a nephew, Philip WALTERS of Kokomo. Funeral services will be held at 2 o’clock tomorrow afternoon in the Richardson funeral home, 1741 North Meridian street, Indianapolis. Burial will be in Crown Hill cemetery at Indianapolis. An error was made in The News-Sentinel Monday when it was stated that the hour of the funeral services for the late William WILSON would be at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday from the Grace Methodist Church. The service will be held at 2 p.m. Wednesday, December 8, in charge of Rev. Robert ROSS- SHANNON. Burial will be made in the Odd Fellows cemetery. Saturday, December 11, 1937 E. E. APPLEGATE, 74, former Boone township, Cass county resident and father of Otto APPLEGATE of Kewanna, passed away Friday morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Bertha CRONKHITE, Stockbridge, Mich. Survivors are two sons, Otto [APPLEGATE] and Arthur [APPLEGATE], Rossville, Illinois; and four grandchildren. Funeral services will probably be conducted Sunday at Rossville, Ill.
Despondency caused by poor health was blamed for the suicide at 5:50 o’clock Thursday evening of Charles Monroe JONES, 58 years old, at his farm home three and a half miles southeast of Chili. Jones took his .12 gauge shotgun to a woodshed at the rear of his home and propping the gun on a work bench, stood in front of the weapon and pulled the trigger, the charge passing through his heart. Coroner A. S. NEWELL of Peru was told by the widow, Mrs. Nellie May JONES, that her husband had never threatened suicide and his actions had given no hint that he contemplated ending his life. Louis WEST, 17-year-old Chili high school student and hired hand on the Jones farm, was the first to reach the body after hearing the shotgun blast, followed a few seconds later by Mrs. Jones. The suicide occurred while Mrs. Jones was preparing the evening meal. Jones walked from the rear of the house to the wood shed, but he was not seen carrying the gun and it is believed he had taken it there earlier in the day. He and Mrs. Jones had planned to attend church last night. Mr. Jones ended his life on the farm where he was born May 22, 1879, a son of the late Alonzo and Mary (MOSS) JONES. He had always resided in that community and was a member of the Center Chapel church. Mr. Jones was united in marriage with Nellie May HATTERY at Roann in 1901. Surviving besides the widow are three sons, Harry JONES, of Richland township; Kenneth JONES, of near Peru; and Russell JONES, of near Wabash; two brothers, Frank JONES, Peru R.R. 2, and Hubert JONES, of Granger, Ind.; two sisters, Miss Minnie JONES and Mrs. Alma KARNEHM, both of Peru, and four grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. A brother and a sister preceded Mr. Jones in death. The body was returned this afternoon from the Grandstaff funeral home at Roann to the late residence, where friends may call. Funeral services will be conducted in the Center Chapel church, eight miles northeast of Peru, Sunday afternoon at 1:30 o’clock with Rev. W. F. JOHNSON, of Berne, Ind., officiating. Interment will be in the Chili cemetery. Henry Raymond CROCO, aged 56, Argos, Nickel Plate railroad employee died at the Kelly Hospital, Argos at 9 o’clock Saturday morning. Death was due to heart trouble and followed an illness of a few days duration. The deceased was a life long resident of the Argos community and was born on a farm east of Argos on May 13, 1881 and was the son of Henry and Mary E. CROCO. He had never married and lived on a farm half mile east of Argos. Mr. Croco was employed by the Nickel Plate railroad as section foreman at Argos for the past thirtysix years. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge at Argos. Surviving are the father, two brothers, Andrew [CROCO] and Earl [CROCO] who live on farms near Argos and two sisters, Mrs. Lloyd LOWERY, Battle Creek, Mich. and Mrs. L. W. WISE, Birmingham, Ala. His mother died in 1934. The body has been moved to the Grossman Funeral Home in Argos where funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Monday with Rev. R. H. CROWDER, pastor of the Argos Methodist Church in charge. Burial will be made in the Maple Grove cemetery at Argos.
