Clarence W. Houghton

Funeral services were held Friday evening in the home at 276 Drexel, Detroit, for Clarence Walter Houghton, who passed away suddenly Wednesday, Jan. 6, with a heart attack while at work for the Packard Motor Company in Detroit.

The body was brought to Cass City Saturday morning and a brief service conducted by Rev. Charles Bayless, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, was held in the chapel at Elkland cemetery.

Clarence Walter Houghton was born in Oakland county, Jan. 26, 1872, and was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Abram Houghton. He was united in marriage with Miss Mabel Snell in the fall of 1896 near Cass City and they made their home on a farm, 2 1/2 miles south and 1/2 mile east of Cass City. A few years later they moved to Ruth where he went into the harness business.

The last 21 years have been spent in Detroit where Mr. Houghton worked for the Packard company.

He is survived by his wife, two sons, Earl Houghton of New Jersey and Merrill Houghton of Cleveland, Ohio; three sisters and one brother, Mrs. Joe Collins and Roy Houghton of Detroit, Mrs. Edith Adams of Chicago and Mrs. Harriet Dodge of Cass City.2

Joseph M. Dodge Died Suddenly

Unexpected Demise A Great Shock To Large Circle of Friends

The news of the death of "Joe" Dodge spread over town Tuesday evening, Dec. 9, as a shock mingled with pain and sorrow. Entirely unexpected, many friends had difficulty in first believing that the report was authentic that the prominent and well known citizen had answered the final call at his home on West Main St. early that evening. While Mr. Dodge had been keeping to the house for a few days by what was considered a slight ailment, members of his family and friends who called had no inkling of any serious illness and the community received a great shock when he passed away so suddenly. Death was due to heart failure.

Joseph M. Dodge was born in Elmwood township, Tuscola county, on Dec. 6, 1871. After completing his studies in the public school, he entered the Ontario Veterinary College at Toronto. After his graduation, he practiced his profession as a veterinary surgeon in connection with his farming operations at Elmwood until his appointment as postmaster at Cass City in 1916. In 1898, he was united in marriage with Miss Mae Warner. She died in 1906 and two years later, he married her cousin, Mrs. Harriet M. Martin.

Mr. Dodge has always been keenly interested in community and political activities. At two different times, he has served as president of the Cass City fair and last year was elected as the first president of the Cass City Community club. He was a director and vice president of the Pinney State Bank, a member of the board of directors of the Farm Produce Company, and a member of Cass City Lodge, I.O.O.F. Mr. Dodge retired as postmaster Nov. 1 after serving for eight years in that office.

Mr. and Mrs. Dodge have planned for some time to make a trip to California o visit relatives after his retirement from his government position. Christmas Day had been set as the time of their arrival in the western state.

Besides his wife, Mr. Dodge leaves two step-children, Miss Marie Martin of Cass City, and Carl Martin of Los Angeles, California, his father, Henry Dodge of Los Angeles, one brother, Lawrence Dodge of Ontario, Calif., and one sister, Mrs. Wm. Rambo of Marlette.

Funeral services will be conducted at the residence this (Friday) afternoon at 3:30, by Rev. I. W. Cargo. Interment will be made in Elkland cemetery.2
