William H. BECRAFT, well known Fulton county farmer, who had lived in this community for near 40 years, died at five o'clock Tuesday morning at the farm home of his daughter, Mrs. George NORRIS, several miles north of Rochester on the Michigan road.
Mr. Becraft, who was 83 years old, had suffered a stroke of paralysis less than a week ago, died as a result of the stroke. He was born in Ripley county, Indiana, and had always been a farmer. Of late years, however, he retired on account of failing health. Mrs. Becraft died in 1918.
Surviving are four daughters, Mrs. NORRIS; Mrs L. M. BRACKETT, of this city; Mrs. John FULTZ, north of Rochester, and Mrs. William BRUBAKER, of Rochester.
Funeral services from the Norris home Thursday afternoon at one o'clock, Rev. F. O. FRALEY in charge. Burial at the I.O.O.F. cemetery.
