Charles E. EMMONS, prominent attorney and a lifelong resident of Fulton county, passed away at Woodlawn hospital at 7:40 o'clock, Saturday morning. Death resulted from complications following an illness of several months duration. Mr. Emmons for several weeks was a patient in the Methodist hospital at Indianapoois; he returned from that city on June 29th in a somewhat improved condition. On Wednesday, however, his condition became more critical and he was removed to Woodlawn hospital for treatment.
Mr. Emmons, who has been a member of the Fulton County Bar Association since 1906, started his law practice in the offices of AGNEW and CRUMPACKER of Valparaiso, Ind. In 1906 he purchased the law business of the late Michael ESSICK, of this city. Soon afterward he became a partner of Orbra MONTGOMERY and upon the latter's death he entered into a partnership with Enoch MYERS. Following the demise of Mr. Myers, Mr. Emmons conducted his own offices in the First National Bank building. The deceased was well known throughout the northern Indiana court districts and was a prominent worker in the interests of the Democratic party. He was chairman of the Fulton county Democrats in 1912.
Mr. Emmons who was the son of Orlando and Harriett (HAYS) EMMONS was born in Tiosa, Ind. On April 22nd, 1911 he was united in marriage with Maude MONTGOMERY, in a ceremony solemnized at the Montgomery home in Newcastle township. The deceased was a charter member of the Rochester Country club, the Rochester Kiwanis club, and a member of the Rochester Masonic Order. Mr. Emmons was a graduate of the Tiosa high school, the Rochester Normal college and the Valparaiso Law school of Valparaiso, Ind.
The survivors are his wife; two sisters, Etta EMMONS, of this city and Mrs. Naomi TRIMBLE, of Detroit; two brothers, Aubra EMMONS of this city, and Harley EMMONS, of Mishawaka, two nieces and two nephews.
Funeral services will be held Monday afternoon 2:30 o'clock at the Presbyterian church. Interment will be made in the Rochester mausoleum.
The members of the Fulton County Bar association met today in the court room to make preparations to attend the funeral of the late Attorney Charles EMMONS. The death of Mr. Emmons marks the fourth in the local bar association in a short time. The others were Attorneys C. I. CLEMANS, Frank TERRY and George DEAMER.
