Joseph Dage died in this village on Monday last, June 4th, of a cancer of the face. Our readers will remember that we made mention of his making three trips to Ann Arbor to be treated for this terrible disease, but it baffled the skill of the best physicians, and completed its fatal work in less than a single year. Mr. Dage had lived in Arlington since 1865, up to four years ago, and was known as a hard working and successful farmer. His death took place at his home in this village, where he has resided for the last year or two. He was born in Pennsylvania in July 1820, moving from there to Ohio at an early age. His wife, with whom he had lived happily for forty-live years, survives him, and he leaves also four sons and one daughter, the latter being Mrs. Levi DeHaven of this village. One son, Gabriel Dage, lives in Dakota, and was unable to be present at the funeral. The rest were all here. The funeral was held at the Christian church in this village on Tuesday afternoon, a very excellent discourse being delivered by the pastor, Rev. J. H. Reese. A large number of sorrowing friends followed the remains to their burial in Arlington Cemetery. The Bangor Reflector June 8, 1888
