YOUNG FARMER DEAD OF SPINAL TROUBLE


Albert C.(sic) Cherry, 38 years old, a prominent Shelby township farmer, died unexpectedly at Fenns at three o'clock Tuesday afternoon, at the home of his mother, Mrs. Ida Cherry, and her mother, Mrs. Martha Andrews, where he had gone early in the morning to spend the day. His death was caused by spinal trouble from which he had been suffering for several months, but he was feeling very much better during the past few days and was in exceptionally good spirits Tuesday morning. His body was removed to his own home north of Fenns last evening in the Stewart & Fix ambulance. Mr. Cherry had always followed farming and was living on a farm owned by his mother. He had many acquaintances in this city and the south part of the county and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. During his prolonged illness his neighbors and other friends had given expression to their appreciation of his character and standing in the community by showing him kindness in many ways, even to the extent of assisting in managing the work on the farm. All who knew him will be saddened by his untimely death. All of Mr. Cherry's life had been spent in the Fenns community. He was born in Shelby township, March 7, 1877. His father was the late William Cherry. He was married sixteen years ago to Miss Rena Kelly. Five children were born to the union and all of them survive. They are Lela, Lawrence, Raymond, Helen and Opal, the last being only three months old. He also leaves two sisters, Mrs. Voris M. Fix, of Hendricks township, and Mrs. Walter Griffey, of this city. Mr. Cherry was a faithful member of the Pleasant Grove Christian church near his home, and was a member of the Modern Woodmen. The funeral services will be held at the residence at 2:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon, the Rev. Don A. McKinnon, of Indianapolis, officiating. The Modern Woodmen will take part in the burial ceremonies. The interment will be made in Forest Hill cemetery. Stewart & Fix, funeral directors.
