Pierce - at the home in the town of Manitowoc Rapids, Wis., on Thursday, Feb. 28, Mr. Baily Pierce. The cause of Mr. Pierce's death was published in last week's edition of the paper. It was hoped that he might be able to recover from the effects of his terrible experience, but death relieved the sufferer early Thursday a.m. Mr. Pierce leaves no family, but his death is a great shock to his aged parents and brothers and sisters.
He had many friends in this section of the state and his untimely death is sadly regretted by all. He was a member of Horace M. Walker Post G.A.R., and his remains were accompanied to the grave by some of his sorrowing comrades. His interment took place at the cemetery in this city last Saturday. A large number of friends being present.
