    • MERRITT DAVIS DEAD AT FREMONT CENTER
      Resident of Stephens Mills Died This Morning at His Home.
      Merritt Davis, Sr., 75 years old, died this morning at his home in Fremont Center, following a long, lingering Illness. For the past few years he has lived a life of retirement due to ill health. Mr. Davis was born in Fremont and aside from a few years he has always made his home here. At one time he owned several acres of valuable land in this section but in later years disposed of some. His sons since have carried on the work he started several years ago. He was a member of the Stephens Mills M. E. Church but was not active in social life. He was widely known and well liked, and his death is mourned by many friends and acquaintances. Besides his wife, there are five sons and two daughters that survive: George W. of the town of Hornellsvllle, Mrs. Samuel Stott, Myron G. of this city, Mrs. Ira Evans of Fremont, Duane of this city, D. L. Davis and Merritt, jr., of Fremont. Twelve grandchildren also survive. Funeral announcements later.
