PHILIP LENHART, one of the early day settlers of Genesee Township died very suddenly at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Nellie Holbrook in Milledgeville this morning [ 29 May 1912]. Mr. Lenhart rose early this morning and as usual went out onto the back porch where he sat in a porch chair to await the coming of his daughter to notify him that the morning meal was prepared. Mrs. Holbrook went to porch shortly after 6 o'clock to call her father and found him dead. Death it is believed resulted from a stroke of heart trouble and owing to Mr. Lenhart's advanced age it is thought the shock was too heavy for him to resist its effects.
