Once Lived at Pokagon
Mrs. Grace Weber, murdered at Grand Rapids, has relatives there
Mrs. Grace Weber, who was murdered at Grand Rapids last Sunday by her husband, William R. Weber, was formerly a resident of Pokagon, where her father, Steven Curtis, and an aunt now live.
Weber conducted tailoring shops in several towns in southwestern Michigan before moving to Grand Rapids.
Only a few minutes before the fatal shot was fired by her husband Mrs. Weber had knelt in prayer and asked God to assist and befriend her in her hour of need. Hardly was the prayer finished before Weber came home and killed her, firing three shots.
The husband was of a morose disposition and it is thought had long contemplated either killing his wife or taking his own life.
