W. H. ACERS ANSWERS SUMMONS
W. H. Acers, a resident of Manchester for more than 69 years, passed away at the family home on Franklin Street, Sunday morning after a long illness. Although being in ill health for many years he was able to be about and mingle among his friends until about three weeks ago when he was obliged to go to his bed. From then on he sank rapidly, until death released him from his suffering.
Funeral services were held at the family home on Tuesday afternoon and were conducted by Rev. C. K. Hudson, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Interment was made in Oakland Cemetery.
Mr. Acers is survived by his wife, one brother, George Acers, and one sister, Mrs. W. O. Somes of Manchester.
Mr. Acers came to Manchester when a child two or three years old, his parents being one of the earliest settlors of Manchester. He has lived here continuously during all these years. For the last twenty years, he and Mrs. Acers always spent the winter months at their winter home in the south, the last few winters being spent at St. Petersburg, Florida
Mr. Acers was a man of unusually companionable qualities and had a host of friends who will be grieved to hear of his death.
