Jacob Spencer Died Suddenly
Jacob W. Spencer, for 21 years a resident of this community, passed away on Saturday morning at his farm home near Cass City. His death came suddenly after a brief illness. He had been sick with influenza, which was followed by pulmonary thrombosis, the cause of death.
Funeral services were held at the Douglas funeral home on Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Wm. Curtis officiating. Members of Tyler Lodge, F. & A. M., attended in a body and conducted the impressive Masonic burial service at Elkland cemetery.
Mr. Spencer was born at Armada, Mich., on Jan. 24, 1862. On Oct. 7, 1886, he was united in marriage with Miss Jessie Amber BeaI, at Watertown, Sanilac county. They lived for several years in Sanilac county, coming to Cass City 21 years ago. Five sons came to bless the home, all of them growing to manhood. They are Earle, Sterle, Orton, Leo and Voyle. When the World War called for soldiers, three of these young men answered the summons and went across the seas. Leo fell in France and Orton was so severely injured that he died two years later in a Chicago hospital. Both sons are buried in the National cemetery at Arlington. Earle returned home and resides near Cass City. Sterle lives on a farm in this community and Voyle in Wyoming. Mrs. Spencer passed away Feb. 24, 1927.
Besides his three sons and their families, Mr. Spencer leaves two sisters, Mrs. Carol of Homer, Mich., and Mrs. Kramer of Detroit, and one brother, Orton Spencer, of Muskegon.
Mr. Spencer was a member of Tyler lodge at Cass City, the Chapter of Royal Arch Masons at Caro, the Consistory at Bay City, and the Shrine at Saginaw.
Blessed with a wealth of geniality and radiating good nature wherever met, Mr. Spencer made many friends and he will be greatly missed by them.
