Mc- Michael, for thirty-three years a resi- dent of Wahpeton, well known to al- most every one in town, passed away at his home on the south side Tuesday morning about six o'clock, after a long illness from heart trouble. "Tom" as he was known to his friends had been ill since last October, up to which time he had been -employed as transfer clerk in the Great Northern freight depot at Breckenridge. For the last few weeks of his illness, he suffered considerably, and for week before death came be had been unable to sleep, or even lie down. The trou- ble came from an enlargement of the heart, which gradually choked off the action of the other vital organs; and when the enlargement became too great death followed. Deceased was born at Seaforth, Ontario, 48 years ago. In 1884, when a lad of about fifteen years, he came to North Da- kota with his parents, who settled at Sheldon. Three years later he came to Wahpeton. This city has been his home ever since. Mr. McMichael was twice married, and is survived by three children of the former marriage, his wife and a two year old baby daughter. Their names are: Fred and. Victoria McMichael, of Chicago, Louis McMichael, at Farg^ Two brothers and two sisters also survive, A. E. and R. V. McMichael, of Wahpeton, Mrs. Maud Haas and Miss Agnes Mc- Michael at Fargo.
